  1. agreed, I’d add Blankenhorn. He’s getting close and this org is very thin at 3B.
  2. roster is at 31 and you need to fill 3 starting pitchers and an infielder that will most likely come from outside the organization. You can protect maximum of 5, and I’d like to see a late inning reliever brought in too, making it 4. I’d like to see a couple of these assets traded.
  3. holding people accountable for their actions is very different from making judgements about them as human beings. The comment policy states very specifically “Respect for others is expected in everything we write, and personal attacks are not allowed.” My post was to remind the board not you specifically that we should be empathetic of our neighbors. That we don’t know everything about our community members, but we are just that. We are a community, composed of Twins fans, complete with all of our own biases, points of view and imperfections. Hamilton wasn’t my concern in that post, but our community and how we react naturally when we discuss these things.
  4. Mod note: this is a sensitive subject. Please take care in commenting. Josh Hamilton has a lot of history, but characterizing him one way or another, or broad generalizations about groups of people can escalate quickly. Many people including members of Twins Daily struggle with addiction, we should be sensitive to them and to the Hamilton family. I’ll continue to monitor, and may lock this thread
  5. Twice baked potato casserole https://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/ree-drummond/twice-baked-potato-casserole-2576007
  6. Stewart was outrighted to AAA and Stewart elected free agency
  7. It was a great series, but man that was too long. I like the split screen commercials. I wish we’d see more of that in baseball especially, but the three other big sports too. They’re all taking longer and longer. As a plus, the split screen ads would reach the wider streaming audiences. They would have to cost more.
  8. Immersion cooling, easy peasy, who needs to try to cool a vacuum anyways? https://www.pcgamer.com/this-is-what-extreme-liquid-cooling-looks-like/
  9. I feel for Dyson, to pitch through pain like that for an extended period, but if I were GM I’d do the same as Falvey. There’s no telling how well Dyson will recover from shoulder surgery, and relievers are so volatile from season to season when they are healthy. I hope Dyson heals up and is ready to go in 2021, but I wouldn’t try to pull a Pineda with him to find out.
  10. https://mobile.twitter.com/sidrosenberg/status/1190306108562386944
  11. is that hustle, or is he just slow now? It’s hard to tell
  12. Your recollection is good, he was an above average fielder, until he lost both sprint speed and reaction speed. http://twinsdaily.com/articles.html/_/minnesota-twins-news/minnesota-twins/what-happened-to-eddie-rosario’s-defense-r8209 http://twinsdaily.com/articles.html/_/minnesota-twins-news/minnesota-twins/eddie-rosario-continued-to-trend-downward-in-2019-r8582
  13. that’s how I see it too. 95 or 104, or 115, he isn’t pitching Tomorrow. Complete that game. He was dealing
  14. Thanks Travis for a very good article, but especially for your time on the Q&A. Good for you to go back to school. How did you decide on finance?
  15. spending 4 minutes in a review and not even discuss the call is just astonishing.
  16. As not a Vikings fan, I shy away from the football forums. I’m sure one could guess my football allegiance.... But we all can agree, there’s a special kind of joy that comes with watching Da Bares snatch defeat from jaws of victory.
  17. Good take... I was struggling to come up with a CF/4th outfielder. My roster is heavy on the corners. I couldn’t come up w/ Celestino
  18. LF: Kiriloff CF: Kepler RF: Larnach Ss: Lewis 3B: Polanco 2B: Arraez 1B: Sano C: Garver Bench: Rooker (DH/1b) Gordon (utility) Adrianza (utility) Weil (OF) Rortvedt © Jeffers (C/1B?) Rotation: Berrios Graterol Odorizzi Balazovic Pineda Pen: Rogers May Duffey Alcala Romero Thorpe Duran Stashak I think Littell has a shot at sticking in the pen too, just couldn’t fit him in Rosario they’ll let his arb contract ride and he’ll become a free agent. Buxton to rebuff an extension next offseason and be traded
  19. Ok, I wrote a post about 2020, then realized we’re talking about 2021 and beyond.
  20. agreed, might be too station to station, especially if the playoff dead ball is the ball for the 2020 season
  21. Gordon could be in the 3rd base mix as well.
  22. agreed, I’d sign CJ for one or two years because I think Sano can hold down 3B for a couple more years, at least.
  23. I think the intent was virtuous. The execution was flawed, and the recovery made it look shady
  24. Apple got nabbed in ‘17 for a power throttling software package that was supposed to improve battery life but caused significant performance issues. Now with iPhone 11, they openly selling it as a ‘feature’ rather than hiding it in an update
