    Thank you for your insight and contribution.

    Absolute gold, thank you.

    [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.

    GIDP?

    Mid-season form! WHOOOOO! You can't make chicken soup out of chicken s**t. Oh well, that's baseball.

    No possibility of parole either, he is in there til the end.

    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.

    "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"

    "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

    Cory Provus has been traded to the Salt lake Bees for a very promising 20 year old podcaster. . .

    Replying to your post was very difficult, yet it was something that had to happen.

    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.

    This thread gonna be fire for a while now. 10

    So after that Duran trade, is the 'higher up' directive just "Dump them all, returns are only a unexpected bonus for our unwanted [$$] talent?"
  15. I Miss The Lakes
    '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 :)

    I mean, sure? If our current owners want to pretend that they can't afford an actual MLB roster (minus a couple player's salaries that stand out) why not just go ahead and field the Saints in Twins uniforms until we get billionaires willing to actually invest in the roster again?
  17. I Miss The Lakes
    No You do realize that the Pohlads are trying to SELL the team [finally] Please catch up to what is actually happening with this team my friend

    Oof, hate to say it. I enjoyed my root canal more than this season. It was a little pain knowing I wouldn't have to deal with that again. This team? Seems an awful lot like last season. Letting the days go by Let the water hold me down Letting the days go by Water flowing underground Into the blue again Into the silent water Under the rocks and stones

    I feel like we are one Coldplay concert away. . .

    You think he is in Mexico? What else do you "know" about him?
  22. I Miss The Lakes
    I would get Tim Lincecum on the phone if Bartolo passes. Trevor is right where he should be, in another hemisphere.
  23. I Miss The Lakes
    I feel like the team we've seen the last two weeks is closer to who the 2025 Twins really are than that fun, albeit fluky, May 13 game winning streak. Hopefully we'll get some fun games occasionally for the rest of summer, but this team doesn't have 'it', and I think we need to stop pretending they do.
  24. I Miss The Lakes
    aaaand 4 of those 6 were against a position player pitching!
  25. I Miss The Lakes
    Wow Castro didn't know how many outs there were. With a runner on first too. Glad the next batter lined out quickly, because it would be very Twins if it had been a HR
