  1. Twins fans will boo him if he (or Scott Boras) makes unpleasant comments during his opt out process. But for the cheating, probably not. We put that behind us, even if other fans haven’t.
  2. Let’s break this open for a change of pace…
  3. Yes, I kept thinking my Internet was slow or something. I’ve lost interest in the season, too, but since I’m going to see my White Sox fan friend tomorrow, I thought I’d at least listen to the audio. I’ve been pleasantly surprised.
  4. Actually, this understates my view: I should have said “he’s my least favorite manager [all time] behind Ray Miller.”
  5. Sigh. I think he’s my least favorite manager since Ray Miller (for different reasons, of course).
  6. Okay, I admit it: I came home and saw the line score, 3-0 Twins in the 7th. I saw the bullpen was in with runners on second and third, and I couldn’t watch or listen! I just followed the inevitable line score and looked at our game thread. I finally tuned into the radio broadcast for our last two outs. I’ve become a wimp of a Twins fan after 55 years. ? Sorry…
  7. My MLB feed doesn’t usually show the postgame, but this time it did. I don’t usually listen because I don’t like Rocco.
  8. And Ryan’s moping sure adds to that impression. He really doesn’t play the usual game.
  9. Just got home and tuned in. Saw a string of zeroes, “What the hell?”
  10. Thank you: As a Twins fan mostly in the New York area for over 50 years, I’ve been saying that here for years. I think the problem really began in the 1970s; the ‘60s may have been a wash.
  11. Some random observations; Was at the games and heard Yankee fans admitting that they were fielding a mostly a AAA team, and then being thankful for the good fortune that they were facing the Twins, where that wouldn’t matter. Got jealous seeing the Yankees steal all those bases. Why can’t we? Correa really gets a lot of “Cheater” boos. Does that happen in all stadiums except Houston and Target Field?
  12. Do I get one for watching this disaster in person at Yankee Stadium? (actually, I think I was in the bathroom for Hamilton’s at bat, since I don’t remember it at all)
  13. Will be there today. Been to many games here since the early 1970s; not many good memories, but, yes, it is a delight to see other Twins fans.
  14. Thanks for all this background (don’t follow prospects much). I’ll be at the doubleheader and am fully expecting heartbreak.
  15. Had tickets for Wednesday’s game to see with a Yankee fan; now I have to watch us lose two games in a single-admission doubleheader [sigh]. P.S. This is not new: I used to go to doubleheaders at the old Yankee Stadium in the 1970s, and, yes, the Twins generally lost both games to a mediocre Yankee team.
  16. We just don’t win against the big boys.
  17. Me, too, but the video is really good.
  18. Of course, not entirely true: there were those wacky games with the White Sox and Tigers earlier on.
  19. When I read through the thread, it seems I missed a lot of hair-pulling garbage, too.
