    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.
  2. 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?
  3. 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.
  4. LewFordLives
    Hopefully he signs. Welcome to the Twins!
  5. LewFordLives
    Maybe he can play for the Vikings if they don't extend O'Neil.
  6. 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.
  7. 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.
  8. LewFordLives
    Someone needs to clean that limestone behind home plate.
  9. LewFordLives
    Should've been an error on Correa. He had time .
  10. 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.
  11. 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.

    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.
  13. 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.
  14. LewFordLives
    The Twins haven't had a true leadoff hitter in a while (Denard Span?). Maybe Gabriel Gonzalez can be that guy.
  15. LewFordLives
    Forget the booth. They need him back at the top of the lineup.
  16. LewFordLives
    Am watching on MLB Network. Who is doing color with Cory Provus?
  17. 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.
  18. LewFordLives
    Are we sure he's in the right organization?
  19. LewFordLives
    DiMaggio's record is safe.
  20. LewFordLives
    The Pohlad 's need to go, Falvey needs to go, and Rocco needs to go. It's a complete organizational failure.
  21. LewFordLives
    Doesn't he need to rest his arm? It's a long season.
  22. LewFordLives
    How did this team win 37 games?
  23. LewFordLives
    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.
  24. LewFordLives
    Some trades are only bad in retrospect. This one was a head scratcher from day one. Matt Capps people......Matt Capps

    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.
