  1. They have spies feeding them info. It's like "It's a Wonderful Life". You never know how your actions benefit others. I just hope no one rings a bell. We don't want these Angels to get wings.
  2. If that belief is what sustains you good for you. You must go crazy reading posts on this site. Maybe you could write articles to educate stupid rubes like us. Or better yet find a forum with more right thinking members like you. I'm voting for the later.
  3. 👍 for most of the comment. 👎👎👎👎 for the above.
  4. 3 years with Twins batting average .033, .054, .042.
  5. Partially responsible for creation of the DH.
  6. Tony O. Herb Carneal, Ray Scott, and Halsey Hall. Oldsters will remember this Martin commercial.
  7. If you create a free Star Tribune account it will let you read at least one or two articles a day or something like that. Comes in handy at times.
  8. The Twins aren't absorbent and yellow but the lineup is porous as hell. There's so many holes it's like a baritone saxophone. Plus they are playing under water. And then there's Joe, I mean Mr Krabs...
  9. He used to be my favorite. His rookie year, 22, the two All Stars, Correa and Buxton went into a big slump and most of the team followed. It was Miranda that kept the offense going. The he over trained in the winter and came back injured. He had that hitting streak last year but fell apart again. It's like with Lewis and others. How can you be so good and then not for so long?
  10. I think Wallners nickname came from Hieronymoose.
  11. sat·ire | (/'sa?ti(?)r/) | noun the use of humor, irony, exaggeration, blah, blah, blah My second cousin overheard the checker at the market saying she knew someone in the Twins organization that said they were going to fire ALL of the club house attendants and two or three of the bat boys/girls as the main cause of the poor level of play. I'm glad they finally found the root of the problems.
  12. The Star Tribune said Ryan, who said on Friday that he was sick but still hoped to pitch Saturday...... For whatever that's worth. Flu sick? Cold sick? Sick of the losing Twins?
  13. Isn't that a different sport? It's still a ball so maybe...
  14. If they could get The Professor that might be good. He always knows what to do. But they'll probably get multiple clones of Gilligan and the Skipper. Oh wait. I thought you said Castaways. On the other hand maybe being on the Twins is like a being stranded on a desert island.
  15. Clearly they can't. Plus if a "prospect" does actually become an average MLB player, let alone a great one, when they reach that point and are arbitration eligible they will be traded for more "prospects". Where is the future?
  16. Was he losing it? Maybe they thought he's implode on the mound. Strange. I wish we could see/hear what's happening in the dugout and club house.
  17. OK, is Ryan acting more than a little strange.
  18. Up till now this is the only kind of Salary Cap we've seen.
  19. Hopefully someone with better info than me will answer but the current Collective Bargaining Agreement between the MLB and the players expires at the end of 2026. I don't know what actual inside info is out there and how much is supposition but the owners have wanted a salary cap for decades. The biggest attempt was 94-95 when they locked out the players. They were not successful. The general buzz is that a lockout is a certainty. If this is where things are going it's fairly certain the owners are getting together and building a strategy. The Pohlads would certainly be a part of this. Since the Pohlads are salary averse I would think a salary cap would be less important to them but the owners may well try to implement other forms of salary control. A lot of comments I have read here talk like a lockout wouldn't be all that long but I think solidarity would be tight on both sides and both sides would be unwilling to make concessions. It will be interesting to see how this plays out.
  20. I was a kid, when Top Cat was on TV, but it's only now that I am very old I refer to TC as Top Cat. I guess that's age regression.
  21. The proper name for bat crap is guano.
  22. I think they make No Salt lead paint chips.
