  1. Thank you for your insight and contribution.
  2. Absolute gold, thank you.
  3. [looks at roster] [looks at results so far] Yep, that's the 2026 Twins right there. Going to be a lot of 1-3 and 2-4 series this year. A lot.
  4. Mid-season form! WHOOOOO! You can't make chicken soup out of chicken s**t. Oh well, that's baseball.
  5. No possibility of parole either, he is in there til the end.
  6. I think the Twins fanbase and the Rockies fanbases are incredibly different, so any comparisons should be very limited. Twins fans respect winning and trying to win, and most are savvy enough to disbelieve the stuff being shoveled from the top down. The Pohlads, under Joe's leadership, hit every diehard fan in the head with a shovel by beginning the roster dismantle IMMEDIATELY after the team itself finally won a playoff series and then gave the Astros a run for the money. I just don't honestly see a way back from that. Maybe? 1. Apologize for the dumb stuff they've been doing, and the lip service they use to excuse it. 2. Recommit to building a competitive team that Target Field and the fanbase deserve. I don't see either one of those going down this decade, so I guess we all have to settle for record low attendance and zero enthusiasm from the very people they haven't shown respect for in years.
  7. "We collectively decided to be incredibly worse on a talent level franchise-wide. But in better news, the Pohlads have saved an incredible amount of money. We all understand that the Pohlad family hates this portion of their inheritance, and the less money they have to put into it makes them happier. So we can all see how much of an incredible win this trade deadline is to everyone, because Joe Pohlad said "Good job pig, that'll do"
  8. "Joe Torre was a great manager because he only managed when he had to" -D.Jeter Our new everyday SS is at bat, bases loaded. 3-1 count. Does he have the green light? OF COURSE NOT. (watches lazy strike, grounds out to end inning) RoccoBall
  9. Cory Provus has been traded to the Salt lake Bees for a very promising 20 year old podcaster. . .
  10. Replying to your post was very difficult, yet it was something that had to happen.
  11. Getting more athletic? lol ok Invoking Joe Ryan as a yield in the Nelson Cruz trade? Does ANYONE think we have a talent like Ryan in this current yield? I don't. Complete salary dump, now Falvey is trying to put the earrings on the pigs, as instructed.
  12. So after that Duran trade, is the 'higher up' directive just "Dump them all, returns are only a unexpected bonus for our unwanted [$$] talent?"
  13. 'Negotiation' Falvey- we want Painter Phillies Falvey- No Falvey- Ok, what else you got? Phillies Falvey- Best I can do is maybe decent shiny beads Falvey- OK, buy me beer next time we see each other :)
