    And he didn't even have to hit it in triples alley in SF to do it

    No. But I have this:

    Back to baseball. Bradley is looking good and looks to finish his 2026 campaign with a quality start!

    Insurance companies aren't hurting. State Farm just posted their best year ever and given their policy holders a dividend payout. The dark secret is that they stripped their local agents of a ton of accrued benefits to pay for it.

    I'm not actually upset about the trade deadline deals they did. I liked them. My only criticism was that they should have been more aggressive in trading Jeffers and Larnach. But none of that is Tom P's role, nor do I want it to be. He is supposed to be paying someone that specializes in that to do that job. Tom P admitted that they went too far in stripping down last year's team, especially the bullpen. ownership situation being in flux until December. - This has been an issue for some time with this family while owning the team. I like Tom over Joe, but it has seemed for quite some time that there is nobody actually looking over the team from the family. I would love the team to invest in facilities and proper training staff, both in the major and minor leagues. We have gone through how many years of players coming up and failure to launch? With a small to mid-market team like the Twins, they can't afford to miss like they have been missing on their prospects. That seems to be the difference between the Twins, Tampa, Cleveland, and Milwaukee.

    Never said they were hurting. But they pulled the team off the market mainly because they weren't getting the price they thought they should get. When you consider the Tampa Bay sale, they may have been correct, but I don't know what is or isn't in the books.

    IMO, Tom P never actually bought into the team. He just needed the team to turn a profit so the finances looked better when we come out of CBA negotiations and they can sell the team for the price "they deserve". My whole point in supporting this idea this season was that he would actually make investments necessary to make the team better (half-assed it) and wouldn't strip it for parts without a direction and make the team unwatchable. I think Tom P accomplished his mission for the season. Stay relevant just long enough that they can turn a profit.

    is Jon Miller still on the radio there? I do miss his voice from when he did Sunday Night Baseball in the 90s.
  9. Western SD Fan
    Just missing the water buffalo hat.
  10. Western SD Fan
    You finally noticed? They have been awful all season long.
  11. Western SD Fan
    They're not going to improve their position there very much anymore:

    We are making progress! Keaschall made the pitcher throw as many pitches in the AB tonight that yesterday's starter did the entire inning.
  13. Western SD Fan
    Roden is at least making the SF pitcher work up a lather and was rewarded with a hit.

    The top of the 1st:

    I can see it now. Sabato will have a great ML debut with a menagerie of different player's equipment.
  16. Western SD Fan
    The context here is that Fifth Third acquired Comerica late last year and thus the naming rights went along with it.

    Some loons may have to go without habitat to make the scratch offs work for us.
  20. Western SD Fan
    Moving on up.
  21. Western SD Fan
    Neto gives us a gift by not running on Keaschall.
  22. Western SD Fan
    Play is a lot closer than I thought it was watching it live.

    Since we are heading to SF after this series, a Metallica song lyric is appropriate here: "Then it comes to be that the soothing light at the end of your tunnel Is just a freight train coming your way" - Metallica - "No Leaf Clover"

    I haven't heard anything about Festa in quite some time. I'm not even sure he will have a career at this point. Rojas will just need to clean up his command and I think he will be fine. I don't see it coming. Hoffman is already going to be paid $7.25M next season. From a Twins standpoint, he is being paid what Falvey/Zoll tried to pay an entire bullpen this last offseason.

    Twins still making sure you're getting extra value from your subscription tonight.
