Twinkies are for eating's Achievements

  1. I’d take the pitcher. But Twins won’t. They’ve taken 8 pitchers in the first since 1983. Gotta be the lowest in baseball!
  2. When are the Twins going to start taking a chance on a high end pitching prospect near the top. We have an over abundance of SS and OF prospects. Most of which are injury prone or will be moved to a less premium position. Also we don’t need anymore high school prospects. Too unpredictable. Just my two cents. Feel like I’m already ahead of Falvey’s thought process.
  3. Excited for the kid. Exceedingly rare to have a starting left handed pitcher with his size and stuff. He and Soto are the two I’m most excited about in the org. Really hoping he sticks as a starter.
  4. Which ss are we going to take at 3? And what position will he be moved to? Will the Pohlads have to bring in another limited partner to be able to sign the #3 pick?
  5. Who will be scouting the current and future crop of prospects for the Twins? Mr. Burns, I mean Carl Pohlads grandson? Didn’t the P’s fire all of the Twins scouts? Last I checked it’s a pretty important aspect of a successful team. Maybe the Twins will be that at some point in my lifetime.
  6. Too little too late. There is absolutely nothing the Pohlads can or will do to win back the trust of loyal Twins fans. Carl Pohlads was the inspiration for Montgomery Burns. Every passing season his dead a$$ reminds me more and more of the fictional character. The guy literally foreclosed farms in person during the Great Depression. It’s time for Twins fans to shut it down. Stop going to the games at this beautiful stadium us taxpayers helped fund. Really funny how that point never gets brought up to the Pohlads anymore. Use your mlb team to bankroll your financial losses. Some where deep down Bud Selig and Carl Pohlad are rubbing their hands together as Monty Burns laugher fills Hells caverns
  7. The only real value you’re going to get back is from Joe Ryan. Pablo is damaged goods now. Jeffers is a good player in my opinion, but not great defensively. So what are you looking to get back for Joe? Pitching prospects? We have an abundance of outfield and shortstops in our system. If it’s not elite pitching prospects I wouldn’t pull the trigger. And even then I think your taking a big risk.
  8. It would be nice if the Twins pushed their pitching prospects this hard. Joe Ryan finally broke out at 29. So if we don’t trade him we will have maybe 4 years of his prime available.
  9. Honestly fans should just stop going to Target field until the Pohlads sell. I’d love to see them squirm and complain about not making any money from ticket sales. I would think they would be even more motivated to sell at the real market price if this ever happened.
  10. Is that how it works now? You just blew my mind!!!!
  11. Always one of you in the crowd. I’m talking about paying for a streaming service to watch the Twins. So yeah, I pay for hulu, but I’m not paying to watch every Twins game. Did I explain it well enough for you? Prob not.
  12. Baseball will never be the same for me. It started with paying to watch the Twins on television. I’ll never do that. Baseball has gotten way too greedy for their own good. There should have been a clause in the contract with the city of Mpls and the Pohlads that they would have to spend a minimum amount to sign FA’s and retain their own players. How they got off with a tax payer funded stadium is beyond me. I hope Bud Selig and Carl P are eternally hot. My 4 year old son and I were watching the Yankees and Twins game the other night for free. Bases loaded, no outs and all we could muster was one run. My son looks at me and says dad this team needs better players. I laughed and said you might want to pick a different team to cheer for bud.
  13. Your star $200 million dollar player tells you he wants to play third and you don’t listen to him. Wow. The tear down needs to continue with Falvey and Rocco. Unfortunately Falvey is just a PR guy for the Pohlads at this point. Until the Pohlads are gone there is ZERO hope for this franchise!
  14. Correa is back in Houston. LOL Falvey you genius or bastard! I’m not sure which???
  15. Send him to Houston for some BBQ sauce. I was shocked by his original signing, and less shocked by his demise. The leg fracture repair sunk his value to the point the Twins thought they could bid with the big boys. When the big boys folded little Falvey got excited and threw all his money on the counter. With our penchant to draft SS prospects in the first round we should have someone who can take over. Don’t love the Duran trade. Abel seems like a bust. And why in the world did we trade for two catching prospects days apart??? Where do I get a GM application?
