  1. It was sarcasm, aimed at the dozens here who seem to think they don't care....
  2. I wish it would start already.
  3. I wonder why the Twins decided to care today.
  4. I'm assuming you meant to type "when" rather than "in case if"
  5. If the talent pipeline is tapped, this team has very long term issues......
  6. Agree with all that
  7. I wish Rocco would stop throwing easy to hit pitches and hitting balls at the opponent like that.
  8. And yet, Arraez hits, so I don't know what to do with him.
  9. They won. To argue against him having any neutral or positive effect, you need to offer concrete, measurable, verifiable, facts. Otherwise, the outcome kind of points to him doing his job well. The burden of proof is all on the person arguing against the outcomes.
  10. Not one person on this thread is doing that...at least argue against arguments made (or not, up to you).
  11. My point is the other teams didn't win the division, even though it was weak....the Twins did. The still had to win the games, and they did. You don't fire a leader for winning their first two seasons, and starting out badly the next.
  12. The other teams didn't win the Central those two years.....did they have no excuse also?
  13. Two things: It is too early to fire anyone, Baldelli or the FO. The FO deserves 2 more years to see what they can do or not do, imo. Then we can assess their work. So far? I'm not impressed with their work in the minors, but am with their trades and mostly their FA work. I'm not in love with some of what Baldelli does in game. But, really, he hasn't often had better choices (esp. the bullpen this year, which appears to be a dumpster fire right now). And, the lineup? Nagging injuries and just bad options at times aren't his fault.
  14. no... It starts with the players and the front office.
  15. He'd be considered a better manager by some if the FO gave him a good bullpen.....a lot of this year is about the players, as is true most years. The manager has little control over wins and losses, imo. Maybe a few games a year it matters who the manager is. Frankly, there should be a lot more talk about the FO right now....
  16. We all know he won't do that. It's not in his nature. Alas.
  17. Mind. Boggling. Those players have almost zero chance of being NFL players. Go get early picks. Sigh.
  18. I never listen to announcers anymore.... Unless it is the radio.... Music is better with sports than announcers
  19. I am looking forward to this for some unspeakable reason. Like, I have no idea why.....
  20. I'm 57.....so not sure my heart can take that....
  21. I'd go to 110 or so....but his arm is still part of a human body.......Or, if he starts losing steam....
  22. KC>>>>>>>>>>>>>MN FO. Also, that is a lot to give up.....IMO. But, ya, you'd think they could have done something with this and gotten better.......
