    Best of luck to him, but I don't want him back in a Twins uni. Yes, he had "potential", but that can be said for all busts...and that's what he ultimately was. At least for us. It was nice not to have him in the lineup this past season. Whether it was the various injuries, or lack of effort/discipline on his part, or whatever it was...he just couldn't put it together. He was a major hole in the lineup. I honestly don't think he's going to turn out to be another Ortiz with another team...he is what he is, and what we've all seen since he came up. He'll be lucky to get a minor league deal with some team. If he gets an incentive laden major league deal I'd be shocked.

    NOOOOOOOO!!!

    Please no. I'd take him over Garlick if the money was around the same...and it isn't. Let Pham go somewhere else. He can take Garlick along for the ride with him.

    If the FO is smart, which I'm not 100% sure of, they should be looking at every option out there to make the team better.
  5. CRF
    Out of those three guys mentioned, I'd go for Drury. No interest in the other two.
  6. CRF
    Oh boy.
  7. CRF
    I could see us being interested in a couple of those guys mentioned. Maybe Trivino and Hernandez. Definitely want to see Pagan and Garlick go bye bye from our team. I'd like to keep Gio.

    Real tired of bringing in guys that need to be "fixed". Lopez was a career nothing until the 1st half of last season, when for some reason, he all of a sudden was much better. Who knows why? He had two terrible outings against us before the break. We killed him. Then, he comes here and was just as brutal. If he's worth anything on the open market, see if we can get something for him and let him get "fixed" by another team.

    If I say what that really looks like to me...I'll get banned, but if you say that's the correct way, I'll go along.

    Just my opinion...I'm actually old enough to have used, and can use, cursive handwriting. When I write "Twins" in cursive, I connect the W and the I at the bottom of each letter, not in the middle of each letter. For me, to connect them in the middle like that looks very strange. It just doesn't look right.
  11. CRF
    Sometimes change is good...and sometimes change is just change. I'm not real impressed with the logo on the pennants. I don't care for the dash like connection in between the "W" and the "I". That kills it for me. I sure hope there's something better than this coming up.
  12. CRF
    Sure teams are adding more FO people...you gotta keep up with the Joneses, but there has to be a lot of overlap and excess. There has to be a limit. How much is too much? Spend the money on players/free agents.
  13. CRF
    Please NO!
  14. CRF
    Doesn't matter who we sign/get for the pen, if we don't use our starting pitchers differently. Whether by design, or effectiveness...we can't keep letting starters go 3-4-5 innings EVERY start. That will kill the bullpen over the course of the season. I think we need a new philosophy in regards to how we use our pitchers.
  15. CRF
    Who knows? One thing's for sure...they won't improve it by bringing Duffey back. I'm sure that pic is him watching another ball leave the park!
  16. CRF
    I definitely think that Wes Johnson quitting mid season had an adverse effect on the pitching staff. I doubt that Baldelli, the FO, or any of the pitchers, would admit to that though. How much of an effect, and exactly what it was...I'm not smart enough to discern. There was a difference. Even though Maki was there and probably aware of everything that was taking place with the staff, there absolutely was a decline in performance. My opinion is, they should go outside the organization for a new pitching coach, instead of Maki. That won't happen of course. If Maki remains the pitching coach, it'll be very interesting to see what the staff does in 2023. Let's hope for the best.

    Couldn't wait for Sano to hit the bricks. It was way past time for that to happen. There's no doubt Bundy and Archer had to go. There absolutely HAS to be a couple better bodies out there to fill out the staff. I wish them all the best of luck, but don't let the door hit you on the way out of town.
  18. CRF
    I'd be mostly ok with Fulmer, and maybe Rogers depending on the deal. Don't want May back at all.
  19. CRF
    Archer and Bundy too. They declined the options on all three guys. Best news I've heard in quite a while.
  20. CRF
    Makes sense. No surprise that they did.
  21. CRF
    C'mon...if that's the "rebrand"...why do anything at all? Not much of a difference.
  22. CRF
    The Twins should've tried to make a move to get Murphy at the deadline, this past season. He'd be a huge upgrade over Jeffers, and he would've been over Sanchez too. I'd love to see him in a Twins uni. .
  23. CRF
    Yeah...sure he is. I'll bet he's got the blank check all signed and ready to go.
  24. CRF
    It's just my opinion, and I know I'm in the minority here, but I still believe in the role of a "closer". I think there are still teams and managers that do too. For me, he's far more valuable in the closer/late inning role, than as a starter. I'd like him to stay in the pen.
  25. CRF
    This is 100% correct. He got hurt THIS season on that slide into 2nd base. Not running into a wall trying to make a catch.
