  1. Kubel in Arizona gear? That was tough because my family knew his family and had followed him throughout his minor/major league career.
  2. I saw my first major league baseball game at the old met in 1981. They were no-hit for eight innings by Jim Slaton of the Brewers. Man that was a bad Twins team!
  3. Baseball games with no fans in the stands? Tampa Bay has been doing that for years. Who knew that the Ray's were so far ahead of their time?
  4. I think one thing that makes this pitching staff so scary is not necessarily how good or deep the rotation is, but how good and deep the bullpen is. The starters won't have to go seven innings.
  5. Twins were so beat up in the Outfield they had to go acquire Ryan Lamarre in September just to finish the season. Imagine if Eddie had gone on the IL for 2 months, in favor of Darin Mastroianni, Rene Tosoni, or (insert your favorite replacement level outfielder from Minnesota's recent past). I for one would like to think Eddie for toughing it out and finishing the year.
  6. Age 25 is when most mortals make their MLB debut.
  7. The weather conditions at Hammond Stadium would have been considered terrible in Minnesota. Too warm to go ice fishing!
  8. Whoa! 59 degrees AND wind? Can't be outdoors in those conditions. What to do?
  9. I consider Rosario a X factor. I assume he is healthy. Can he field his position? Can he show some plate discipline so that opposing pitchers will have to throw the ball near the strike zone? If the answer to both is "yes", that Twins lineup will be very scary.
  10. Signing Josh Donaldson as a free agent was the biggest offseason move in the history of Minnesota baseball. Hindsight being 20/20, the Jack Morris signing before the 1991 season was bigger.
  11. It would appear that starting pitching is like sex. To quote Van Halen, "Everybody Wants Some". And the Twins ain't getting any.
  12. I can't see Detroit trading Boyd within the division
  13. I love Rendon. It'll never happen, but just think if it did!
  14. Second-half drop off could be due to injury. Or it could be due to the fact that pitchers figured out they don't have to throw the ball anywhere near the plate to get him out
  15. Worst decade of Twins baseball? 2010 and 2019 bookended 8 mostly unwatchable seasons. Honorable mention: the 90's (a world championship in '91 and a whole lot of yuck!)
  16. The Yankees had a great game plan. The twins just didn't get very many fastballs in the zone.
  17. Look at how many times Arraez made the list in past years.
  18. Look at how many times Arraez made the list in past years.
  19. Winning is fun! Thanks, TD gang for a great time this summer!
  20. Odd that Odorizzi was only mentioned in comments once and not at all of the article. And Eddie was only mentioned in passing in the comments and not in the article. I'm not saying either one of those guys are the MVP but they are certainly worthy of mention.
  21. I never thought Duffey would ever get it figured out. He looked for all the world like just another twins reliever that was horrible it would never get better. Nice surprise!
