    Once again, this team just gives away runs.

    I' m not willing to throw in the towel yet on this season. The talent is there to go on another winning streak and get back in this thing. Yes, the odds are long, but the front office needs to consider that possibility in whatever they decide to do. They shouldn't just trade rentals like Bader and Coulombe just to trade them. Their value in possibly helping the Twins make the post-season, no matter how small, is still greater than a couple of low minors lottery tickets.

    No disrespect to Clemens. He has performed beyond expectations and can be an important part of this organization going forward. But if he is your everyday first baseman, then this is not a good team.
  4. LewFordLives
    But would that be enough for Bader? Maybe Philly could also toss in a couple second tier prospects to even it out.
  5. LewFordLives
    The law of averages. He was so awful with the Twins it would only stand to reason that he would become Cy Young once he left. I won't take that bet.

    Scott Klingenbeck recently passed away. Only 54. https://ohiostatebuckeyes.com/news/2025/5/29/baseball-mourns-loss-of-scott-klingenbeck To Twins fans he'll always be the guy they got for Scott Erickson. The obituaries say he was a really good guy. Did a lot with youth sports after he left baseball.

    Maybe the Orioles will make an offer centered around Scott Klingenbeck. UPDATE: After making this post I did a quick search because I was curious as to what Mr. Klingenbeck is doing these days. Sadly, he died very recently. He was only 54. Apparently he was involved in coaching youth sports after he left baseball. https://ohiostatebuckeyes.com/news/2025/5/29/baseball-mourns-loss-of-scott-klingenbeck

    Has Dateline done an episode on this yet? It would probably have to be a two-parter, maybe even a limited run streaming series. Very bizarre and lots of unanswered questions.
  9. LewFordLives
    Let's say they hold onto him until the following year and then trade him at the deadline. You don't think some desperate team would have ponied up for him then? Maybe not two top 100 prospects, but at least 1 top 100?
  10. LewFordLives
    Plus another year of Berrios. Yes, I would. The reason they gave us for trading him is that he wouldn't sign an extension. What did he do after he got to Toronto....he signed an extension.
  11. LewFordLives
    Hopefully he signs. Welcome to the Twins!
  12. LewFordLives
    Maybe he can play for the Vikings if they don't extend O'Neil.
  13. LewFordLives
    The sad thing is, think about all the runs they have given away with sloppy defense and awful base running. Their record should be so much better.
  14. LewFordLives
    Not sure, but redoing the filler in the joints would go a long way to making it look better. That is what the rest of the country sees on TV.
  15. LewFordLives
    Someone needs to clean that limestone behind home plate.
  16. LewFordLives
    Should've been an error on Correa. He had time .
  17. LewFordLives
    And the Twins didn't develop Ryan. They stole him from the Rays. I bring this up because it speaks to the number one problem with this organization....they cannot develop good pitching. Berrios was the last. Maybe Ober will be the next success.
  18. LewFordLives
    Good article with only one nitpick.....not everyone agreed with the Berrios trade at the time. It was stupid then, and looks worse by the day.
  19. LewFordLives
    I wonder if the MLB loan guarantee has more to do with satisfying the current lenders. Presumably, whoever buys the team may take on more debt to finance the purchase. The current lenders may be concerned about being pushed down the pecking order in the event of a bankruptcy.
  20. LewFordLives
    When you have good, young, controllable pitching, you cling to it with every ounce of your being. Of course people will spread rumors, but I can't imagine any trade package that would be advantageous to the Twins. Of course, I thought it made zero sense to trade Berrios.
  21. LewFordLives
    The Twins haven't had a true leadoff hitter in a while (Denard Span?). Maybe Gabriel Gonzalez can be that guy.
  22. LewFordLives
    Forget the booth. They need him back at the top of the lineup.
  23. LewFordLives
    Am watching on MLB Network. Who is doing color with Cory Provus?
  24. LewFordLives
    My blood gets up any time someone brings up that trade. It made no sense at the time and looks even worse in retrospect.
  25. LewFordLives
    Are we sure he's in the right organization?
