Carlos Correa is the Twins' Biggest Problem
T.O. replied to Cody Pirkl's topic in Twins Daily Front Page News
I was sorry to see Correa go after last year but was against the Twins paying his demanded price. No one is worth $33,000,000. When they did re-sign him I was hopeful but skeptical. It takes a very special person to not let mental pressure get in the way of the expectations that EVERYONE has on a player in that situation. The higher the salary and longer the contract the more the pressure. Maybe Correa is not that special (and rare) person. -
Buxton Injury Vagueness
T.O. commented on jharaldson's blog entry in Back Office Twins Baseball Blog
A lot of comments that Buxton's medical status is not the fans business. If there was something of a personal nature effecting is work that would be one thing but since they're trying to play him every day that doesn't seem likely. Teams usually give specific reports on medical status. The fact that the organization has given so much confusing info doesn't make sense. I would think it would be in their best interest to be up front with what's actually going on. A player with a $15,000,000 contract is going to get a lot more fan scrutiny than someone making a lot less. Maybe they afraid to admit they made a big mistake in extending him?
