  1. Looked it up 473 ft homer to center. Longest homerun to center in the dome. Some guy named hrbek and ben oglive have the longest honme runs to right 480 and 481 respextively
  2. Doesnt Pedro have one of the longest home runs ever hit in the dome? I seem to recall listening to broadcast when i was kid and hearing him hit one to upper deck near center field...could be misremembering...
  3. Its really too bad we have so many right handed outfielders already. Otherwise maybe Fedko coukd get the call
  4. Well we know now who the winners and losers were for the Twins trade deadline. The winners (in order) The players traded away The Pohlads The losers Everyone else
  5. I think Tom Candiotti was....pitched for cleveland and the Blue Jays. Pretty sure I butchered the last name spelling. He was the starting pitcher in Game 1 against the Twins in the 91 ALCS for the Jays I believe
  6. Somewhere, undoubtedly, his and Joe Mauer:s family trees' cross
  7. I can't really argue with the Correa selection but I really don't think SWR gets the credit he deserves. Without him doing what he did, we are looking at his starts being taken by guys like Varland, Dobnak and Bousley, and instead of bemoaning the falling out of the season, we would be talking about how we barely had a better record than Oakland and how excited we would be the the draft lottery .
  8. I think with our Sands and SWR, this season would have looked very very different and not in a good way.
  9. A little disappointed that pitching coaches, hitting coaches, bench coaches and first and third base coaches werent analyzed altho I can understand it might be hard to do so. I feel like Tommy Watkins was a terrible third base coach. And I guess the front office already let us know how they felt about the hitting coaches so there is that
  10. I don't think Buxton really answered anything, honestly. The injury bug will continue to follow him, and this yr he was still unable to get to 400 plate appearances despite getting into 102 games. We knew for awhile now he could hit for power and that he is worth the contract depending on health. For him it all comes down to health. We need him to get 450 plate appearances a year.
  11. Be thankful you didn't get to watch the teams in the late 90s or from 2011-2015. Those teams were unwatchable
  12. Is it too soon to talk about the draft? With missing the playoffs the Twins are eligible for the lottery, however slightly and the white Sox can not pick under 10. I think. Ironic
  13. Gotta justify picking up next year's option over pitching I guess
  14. Considering the shalacking they have taken today, I'm sure he couldn't do worse than the offense they have ran out
  15. What is going on with Julien? How come he isn't playing? Does anyone know?
  16. I don't necessarily believe that one of these guys will be traded for sure. Will the team do it's due diligence? Sure. But I think both guys ultimately end up being here. Interesting thought. The Twins could sign the Rockies catcher, Diaz, to a minor league deal and then stash him at AAA and put Vazquez on waivers and see if anyone claims him But I think Vazquez means more to this team than we realize.
  17. When Farmer comes back Lee will go on the DL, then a rehab assignment which can last 20 days, by then Sept rosters expand and Lee is back with the big club.
  18. I think it's surprising they are bringing Diego and making a 40 man roster move instead of just bringing up Julien. I know his numbers aren't the best in AAA or at the big league level but still.
  19. Buxton going out of his way to swing at absolutely everything, and doing a marvelous job of getting himself out in the process
