  1. when you wait a year and a half for a guy to get his swing back and he's such a likable player that does not constitute someone. you keep throwing out there. his swings don't look good. Mr. arcia is really doing the job. He's the veteran with the experience. and please let's don't let Bowman get away into free agency today. he just struck out the side yesterday. 1.69 give the guy a chance. do we have a spot we could move? somebody I think so. let's get Arcia in the lineup. I think Lewis batten average is about the same as Wallner when he was sent down. or we can just keep watching eight guys get in scoring position and can't score any of them. Base is loaded first. inning can't score anybody. who's not seeing this that makes these decisions?
  2. what about Orlando Arcia??? honestly, I don't care about his age. whoever the player is if he's performing that well. hasn't lost anything much except at shortstop. the guy can still play defense at 3rd and second. why is he not up there? we have people that can't hit the ball at those positions.
  3. The twins have have until tomorrow with Bowman who is pitching quite well. I need to move somebody because we need a reliever who can relieve. well the other topic of Mr. Lewis after a year and a half of futility he needs to go down and bring up Arcia who is wasting away at AAA.
  4. My heart sank when right at the end varland was gone and a falvey said we love Louie but it was a deal we couldn't pass up. he ruined the team with his horrible mistakes at the trade deadline except for Bradley. now ownership is going to keep paying the bills and not reinvesting any money into the team. just picking up released players and this could go on for several years. the team cannot survive in this crazy money environment the way they are operating things. 60 years being a follower of the Minnesota twins and it's getting worse than ever. second base and third base currently need to be put back into AAA and I think we all thought he would go down too. but he's doing well. Right field needs to go down and there are people who could brighten our days a little bit when it comes to baseball in AAA.
  5. Yes this is the message they all made sense but this one really does. have been wanting to see Bowwanting to see Bowman back on the team all season and they keep picking other people or picking up somebody else. now they can show how stupid they can be when it comes to relief. pitching before somebody else gets him because he'll get picked up quick. he has no reason to stay with the twins knowing he has other job our opportunities coming.
  6. Fundy has a 2.81 era. that is a really good era. I'm not sure who on the staff can beat that. most of our relievers aren't even close. Rojas yesterday somehow overall based on runs aloud had a good game but my God he can't find the plate. his pictures so many of them are so far from the plate area. they wave off away and I was surprised he only had three walks. He's going to have a lot of 3-2 counts if he doesn't get control. but if this guy can control himself, he will be incredible. he threw the ball into center field. OMG. I'm sitting here talking to myself. somebody show this dude how to get the ball inside the strike zone before you stick him out on a major League field. I think Rogers has to do a lot worse even though he's doing terrible to get sent away anywhere. he's a special young man for the Minnesota twins so they're going to try hard to keep him.
  7. and also Arcia former All-Star hitting 310 with power. I think third base would be a good place for him right now. what are we waiting on? currently at third we're in a over one year funk. send him down to help him out. get it back or but not be be at the major League level. trying to get it right. we need production.
  8. I have a thought. is Bowman a major league pitcher in AAA with an era somewhere around 3 is not brought up but instead Klein is with an era of 7? it's not often you need to bring a guy up with a 7 era in AAA to the Major League level. if they had just kept Louie. OMG
  9. Yes, I have been the twins fan for 61 years. My name is Larry. I started this venture because of Harmon Killebrew on and off the field and right up there with him was Rod Carew and Tony oliva. what has really been disappointing. this year is okay. let go all those guys try to come into these prospects. I think two trades were good. the rest I'm not sure but I can say if you had just not traded. Louie. there was a former GM on the air talking about. well we love Louie but we couldn't pass this up. well you could have. you left the bullpen in shambles and you knew it wasn't going to come out of shambles because nobody's going to pay anybody any money. well everybody gets crazy money even if they're the lowest paid player. but when it comes to magically sports, the incomes aren't crazy enough and we all should boycott. everybody, let's just keep following our team. realize this is a business the players play for who pays them and where they're traded to. it's just some mystique about it. if they have a twins uniform on then I'm going to be hoping for the best for them.
  10. with the others they went before him and was like 5 seconds left. they took away their only chance they have some kind of relief pitching this year, especially at the end of the game. if we can actually hold a lead. The guy's a superstar oh we love Louie but we couldn't pass this up. well you sure should have. now we have no full pen. we have no chance for a winning team and the starter should all want out. we can't get a win because nobody can keep the runs from coming across once the starter leaves. this is ridiculous. twins fan nearly 60 years. never seen anything this stupid.
  11. I have not seen a pitcher Gain more accolades and get on that mound and do so little. whenever I've seen him pitch on TV he just can't do it very well. I'm not out there looking at him everyday you know but I don't see this guy being majorly ready. probably at least 2 years if then. always hope and wrong when I make a comment like that.
  12. your first sentence is what I'm talking about. $1 equals $10 today well at $4.50. that's about $45 today. where you going to see that? $45 you're not most box seats around the major leagues I'm guessing is $300 or more. here's what happened. 1976. Andy mesersmith and Kurt flood challenged the reserve clause and they want so a player can't be tied to the same baseball team and some people thought baseball would fail with it becoming a money grab. the players are MoneyGrab people and when the horrible man George stanburner gave Jim catfish Hunter from the Oakland A's $350,000 for one season. of course he took it and that was just the beginning of higher prices that have nothing to do with inflation. by the way, I'm a twins fan because of Harmon killebrew and Tony oliva and rod Carew. these are quality people on and off the field. about 10 years ago. the White Sox commentator Ken harrelson, former second baseman, said the twins are the most respected organization in baseball for the past 50 years. so I've stuck with it but I realize it's a business. I no longer wear if I went to a game. anything identifying the team I like because with the exception of say Byron Buxton everybody's going to play where they get the most money they have no allegiance. this is not high school or college but you know all that stuff. thank you for your message
