  1. Many have already pointed this out, and we always forget, but you need to take those sugary commercial top-100 lists with a grain of salt. Jose Salas and Simeon Woods Richardson were on those lists. After sleeping on it, Gabriel Gonzalez — I’m sure he’s a great guy personally — feels a lot more like one of those guys to me, than a guy still on the rise.
  2. That’s interesting, thanks. I will make the comparison that trying to acquire that fielding skill as an adult might be a bit like learning a language as an adult or trying to pick up a new instrument. You can practice enough to get to a level where you can get by, and enjoy yourself, and might experience a few graceful moments, but that inherent fluency will never be there. Julien could take a million ground balls at this point and many of us still would not trust him. I think Julien is a terrible pairing for Correa (or conversely, Correa is great for Julien). If Julien’s bat is good enough, he might be able to carve out a few season in the field like Schwarber did. Otherwise I see Julien as a guy with a DH-PH career, nothing wrong with that.
  3. Excellent contribution, thank you for digging it up. Shannon Drayer is no ordinary talking head. She said (paraphrasing) the Twins had been pushing for Bryce Miller or Bryan Woo all offseason, but the Mariners would not budge on that. That the Mariners really have loved Polanco for a long time and this fixes two positions for them, 2B and 3B. Also that they didn't want to part with Topa. At first glance I thought the same thing, Topa is really the best piece of this bunch coming back. Thanks again.
  4. After every trade, somebody posts these values, and they always seem to be a big win in the Twins favor. With all the trading this front office has done over the years, and all this future value accruing over time, the Twins must be forecast for like 230 wins this year! 🙂
  5. It was lockdown in the first half. San Fran was just too good in the second half. That’s how I see it anyway
  6. I actually think Detroit has looked fantastic except for the sudden butterfingers their receivers got
  7. Yeah passed on the FG. But they probably don’t get this far without him
  8. So sad for Lions fans. Any of us can easily see this unraveling like Baltimore did.
  9. Unbelievable drops. That’s like five or six huge ones now in the third quarter. Just. Unbelievable. https://www.theonion.com/tony-romo-regrets-eating-greasy-fried-chicken-during-cr-1819568891
  10. Nice finish to that run by Purdy
  11. I don’t want the Lions to lose on plays like that
  12. We are also seeing a San Fran D that cant stop a single thing. Either that or Detroit is working magic. Possible.
  13. I gave him a pass last week for the wet conditions, but he hasn’t looked good in this game either
  14. I actually thought Campbell might go for it there yikes
  15. Solid bet!
  16. Excellent interview! Rocco is a very likeable guy, great conversation,. The “significant move” comment didn’t sound like anything specific was behind it, to me.
  17. Validity and reliability, love it! Are we going to have to sign up to be caretakers, and read the article, to understand what you are referencing here? (Please say ‘Yes’— Yes we should all stop what we are doing and just take a moment to become TwinsDaily caretakers)
  18. Congratulations to Joe!! Well deserved. This will be something to celebrate all season.
  19. I can’t imagine the Packers leaving it on the foot of their 14-yo looking kicker, either
  20. Now hand it to beast mode (McCaffrey)
