  1. The Pohlad 's need to go, Falvey needs to go, and Rocco needs to go. It's a complete organizational failure.
  2. Doesn't he need to rest his arm? It's a long season.
  3. I know there has been rumors and speculation that the $425 million in debt is related to other Pohlad business ventures, but there is no way to know that and I don't understand why people keep repeating it. Could they have run up $425 million in baseball debt... absolutely. The Twins have contributed hundreds of millions to the construction and upkeep of Target Field. Then there was the pandemic and attendance has not recovered. The TV revenue has also been less than they were expecting. It wouldn't shock me if the Twins have been in a relatively cash poor position the last few years. We don't the exact terms of the Rays sale, but whoever buys them will have to pony up some dough to help resolve their stadium situation.
  4. Some trades are only bad in retrospect. This one was a head scratcher from day one. Matt Capps people......Matt Capps
  5. There was a game in Seattle where the Twins had runners on 1st and 2nd with no outs late in the game. I'm not a big fan of the bunt, but it was a situation that was screaming for small ball. Of course they didn't and failed to move a run across. It has to be some kind of organizational edict. NO BUNTING! I don't know how else to explain it.
  6. The Twins inability to hit lefties has been a problem for the last few years.
  7. If the Twins can make the playoffs, good pitching can take them far. That said, I don't see how they get there without Pablo, and replacing him would cost a king's ransom. If there's a rental starter that can be had for cheap, then the Twins should bite, but even rentals aren't cheap these days.
  8. Yeah, I don't lose sleep over this one. In the pantheon of bad Minnesota sports trades, this is nowhere near making the list. It wasn't even close to the worst deadline trade the Twins made that year. Cade Povich and Yennier Cano to the Orioles for Jorge Lopez.........oofda!
  9. If a team is going to play a lot of close games, then they have to do the little things right. The Twins just don't. Sloppy base running did them in yesterday, and the defense let them down in the 9th today. This has been the story all season.
  10. I was shocked they even tried. Just poor base running.
  11. This guy has been really inconsistent. The zone seems to move around.
  12. I don't see how they can keep Keirsey on the MLB roster. He is basically a giant hole in the lineup. I was rooting for him to finally get his chance, but he hasn't made the most of it.
  13. Where is he now? Is he playing anywhere? He had those few years where he just raked the ball, and then fell off a cliff. I always wondered what happened. He wasn't even that old yet. He should've had at least a couple more years of his prime.
  14. These are the little things that are just killing this team. They give away so many games because of sloppy base running and defense.
  15. Nothing is going to happen to Falvey or Baldelli until the team is sold. Everyone recognizes the new owners will want their own people. Until that day, if it ever happens, this organization will be in limbo.
  16. Molitor was in the booth during the KC series. Honestly, plug him into the lineup and he's probably their best hitter.
  17. In addition to Buxton, Miranda would have had a golden sombrero had Baldelli not pulled him for Wallner.
  18. Sometimes a ball takes a bad hop or gets caught in the wind, but all three of the errors tonight were easy routine plays. Just awful.
  19. Another completely inexcusable error.
