    I moved my family to Minnesota in 92 which means I just missed their glory years. That said, I've been a Twins fan since 92 and Buxton is my favorite Twins player ever. He is a magnifcent athlete and a pleasure to watch. And he appears to be a very good person on top of all of that.

    I think Twins management has gone to the "out house" quite a bit.
  3. Jeff K
    Very well stated. After all the rhetoric, this is the exact point.
  4. Jeff K
    For the love of Shaboom (sports deity...kidding), please let Watkins go.
  5. Jeff K
    I was wondering if it was a double entendre!
  6. Jeff K
    I agree with FlyingFinn. His OBP is pretty good, obviously, if he can bump his batting average up another 20 points, that would be helpful. What a nice change it would be if the Twins were excellent defensively up the middle.

    Baldelli earned his "launching". A great manager makes his team better than they can reasonably expect to be. The Twins underachieved. Falvey certainly should have been fired too; he did not, but it does not change that Baldelli had to go. And it's pretty hard to fire the owner...if only we could!
  8. Jeff K
    Paddack should have kept his mouth shut. Burning bridges is rarely a smart move...and especially for a player who is, at best, becoming a journeyman.
  9. Jeff K
    It was like he was in a dream state. Baldelli must have been shocked to the core based on whatever Falvey was telling him. That said, Baldelli butchered the situation in an inexcusable manner.

    The more things stay the same, they stay the same...

    And set expectations for the minor league organization.

    If I could ask one question at all...recognizing it wouldn't be answered it would be; "Derek, aren't you accountable for the current status of the organization, and if so, why are you still here?"

    I don't care for the hire, but hope I am wrong. I don't like how Falvey has run the organization and I think the Pohlads are terrible owners who are at the root of the Twins problems. That said, I will continue to pull for the Twins even though I've moved out of the area. I don't know if this is badmouthing, or what, but I don't think there is a lot of value in just being a pollyanna.

    Rocco Baldellini and Derek Shelton are the same guy!
  15. Jeff K
    "It's the same old story, same old song and dance, my friend" Aerosmith, Get your wings. "Meet the new boss, same as the old boss". The Who I'm feeling grumpy with this hire. I would be thrilled to be wrong...but until Falvey is gone we will experience Groundhogs day.

    I agree that they ought to protect Fitzgerald simply because the Twins have so few options at SS.
  17. Jeff K
    100% agree. As you said, he is a mediocre to decent platoon DH. Those at bats are better utilized finding out about our youngsters. The Twins are not going to be world beaters next year. let's find out what we have.

    I had to look it up; MSP is the 16th largest metro with 3.7 Million souls. Houston, on the other hand, has the 5th largest metro at 7 million souls. I think they qualify as a pretty large metro with much greater financial resources.
  19. Jeff K
    Good one! The premise alone made me laugh.
  20. Jeff K
    I think Fedko has earned a 40 man roster spot.
  21. Jeff K
    Twins need to listen, but should not be enticed by prospects. They need players who can contribute at the major league level. Pretty much anywhere on the infield.
  22. Jeff K
    This is too painful. It's relieving our misery the past two years ever since the infamous "right sizing" statement.
  23. Jeff K
    That's very "Don Henley" of you!
  24. Jeff K
    Very interesting perspective. I've kind of felt this way too; but was unable to put into reasonable expressions.
  25. Jeff K
    Great post! Pretty close to my work philsophy as well.
