  1. Just in the last year. Was only 54. His Wikipedia page says it was a "cardiac event".
  2. Twins and Royals David McCarty. RIP
  3. It's like a three ring clown show out there. What the hell did they do during spring training? They have looked completely unprepared the last two weeks.
  4. They let one get away. These are the ones that stay with you. Plenty of blame to go around, but to me the main takeaway is how long will Paddack's leash be.
  5. Winning is certainly a lot more fun than losing.
  6. Will he get his first hit before he goes on the injured list?
  7. From a coldly practical vantage, it sorta makes sense. However, he's a veteran who has been battling to get back to a regular role in the big leagues. He makes the team out of spring training, has a good outing, and is sent right back to St Paul. What's going on here? Is there something going on in the locker room that we're not seeing. If I'm Dobnak, I hope someone claims me.
  8. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2025/03/twins-to-designate-randy-dobnak-for-assignment.html Dobnak DFA'd after the game. Pretty much sums up everything that's wrong with this organization.
  9. Maybe they're not really interested in selling, but just want a minority investor to bring a cash infusion. Refinancing $425 million wasn't so bad when rates were 2 percent, but now......
  10. It wasn't just last year's meltdown on its own, but the manner in which they lost. When things are not going your way, the three outcomes approach to hitting is unwatchable. Enough with the double digits in strikeouts night after night. It is so frustrating. This team is basically the same as last year, so do I want to put myself through this again? As you say, winning cures all. Let's hope.
  11. Doesn't Lewis usually get hurt on opening day? He's ahead of schedule.
  12. If only we could all live the life of Don Draper. Then again, he never seemed very happy.
  13. Yeah, I'm curious about that statement as well. It has to mean in the context of spring training. He's on a contingent contract. Evidently the front office doesn't see him as a sure thing.
  14. Don't even joke about that. Last I checked he's still out there.
  15. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2025/02/twins-sign-ty-france.html Phil Miller of ST (via MLBTraderumors) is reporting that Ty France is only getting $1 million, and it's only guaranteed if he makes the club. So I guess he'll have a few weeks in Ft Myers to show if he still has anything left.
  16. Interesting, but I don't see it. As you said, they're probably not going to be competitive, so why would they take that contract? And he's been anything but an innings eater the last few years. I don't think the Marlins ownership cares what MLB thinks of their payroll.
  17. Yeah, I like Castro and/or Lee better than either of those two. I thought $6 million for Bader was steep. Why would they throw that kind of money at DeJong?
  18. I know some will disagree, but Smalley was my favorite of their color commenters. Maybe it's a generational thing. As others mentioned above, he always picked out little details about the game that I never knew before or didn't see. He struck me as having a really smart baseball mind.
  19. "With interest rates soaring due to Jerome Powell’s attempts to hurt worker power and unionization drives during 2021 and 2022, real estate transactions became harder." Interesting set of articles, but can we leave personal politics and non-baseball conspiracy theories off of this website? I come to this website to escape this stuff.
  20. I saw Love and Mercy in the theater. It was a good film.
