  1. I hope Buxton never waives his no trade. I really enjoy witnessing what he is while he is healthy. If the Twins bust his spirit which allows him to see he should move on I will be sad on that day.
  2. ..., other duties as assigned.
  3. I suspect that I should not have reacted with a "laughing face", but it did make me laugh. Keep up the great comments.
  4. DocBauer, I really enjoy and look forward to your posts. Seems like they are always well thought out and devoid of sensationalism. Will be scanning other articles to see what you have to say.
  5. Royce Lewis gets two HRs against a pitcher with a 6+ ERA. This is good, but let's not get overly excited about it. When he hits good against a pitcher with a 3+ ERA I will begin to be a believer.
  6. Question for the group: If your name is Daniel Lynch IV, or anything the IV, is there pressure on you to name your son the V?
  7. Was at the game today. Royce Lewis picked off twice due to bad base running. Very discouraging. Once Ober left, the game became a bunch miserable relievers throwing to incompetent hitters, IMHO.
  8. "Instead, the supposed light at the end of the tunnel turned out to be nothing more than a painted brick wall..." I think it is late enough in the comment section for me to say, I believe that the wall was actually painted black and perspective buyers thought the product would be too hot to approach and it scared them back to where they came from.
  9. "It would inject life, energy, and joy into a clubhouse and fanbase that desperately need it." I just do not see that signing Arraez would do any of things. Ultimately I believe that the fanbase would be disappointed with his play and regret having their fond memories ruined. Just play the young guys.
  10. Go Twins Daily! Hard times a coming. Best of luck with a losing franchise.
  11. First of all, please do not feel despondent because I gave you a thumbs down. I know how you posters crave acceptance. I gave you a thumbs down because I did not find this funny. It was in the just for fun category and it was not fun. But, that is just my opinion. In truth, I hate giving thumbs down, even though I am Thumbs Down Guy.
  12. Lots of comments about how this is going to cost them more. It will only cost you more if you choose to let it cost you more. Just like fresh fruit in the produce section. I can pay more and get what I want, or I can buy canned fruit. Myself, I like fresh fruit!
  13. I am going to need a lot of convincing that moving a player from SS to 3B can increase batting production that much, if any at all. I do agree with your statement that this says more about Correa, or more specifically, a lot better lineup around him where he is just another good bat in the lineup.
  14. Hope all these players the best in their development. Only, for selfish reasons, I hope Jenkins, Culpepper, and Prielipp all stay put in Wichita until September 6. We are travelling there to watch the Wind Surge and then on to KC to see the Twins on 9-7.
  15. What I get out of this is to go all in on being a Vikings fan.
  16. Peter, you do not disappoint. If a picture is worth a thousand words you have expressed a mouthful and a half. So, in brief with regards to your post, 👍.
  17. “…a linear line….” Gleeman you are a hoot! :)
  18. "It’s been surreal watching the reactions unfold across Twins Territory since Carlos Correa was traded back to Houston at the deadline. There’s anger. There’s mockery. There are literal jersey burnings. Social media is filled with hot takes and a new nickname: “C-463,” a jab at his recent struggles at the plate and a reference to the scorebook code for a double play. And to be honest… I don’t get it." If you read your own paragraph you will have your answer. You are getting your info from social media. The cesspool of crap and those who do so.
  19. Always enjoy hearing from your perspective. Hopefully the Twins got the LH starter that you have wanted for sooo long.
  20. IMO this is the most significant point that so many are avoiding. I truly wonder of the Twins will be sold just in time prior to a strike/lockout. Who would want to pay premium price for a business that takes an extended income break. My fear is that the Pohlads will own the team until after the collective bargaining agreement is completed. I think we Twins fans maybe in purgatory for an extended time.
  21. Well for today, the Twins won the Paddock trade.
