  1. The way the seasons seem to shake out for the Twins, I say wait until the 2035 season.
  2. I am happy to report that you are incorrect. Yes, Ryan and the team do have a mutual option for '27, but Ryan remains unted team control whether that mutual option is exercised or not.
  3. For me winters have always been cold and dreary, ever since I was a boy in the 1950's when I selected the original Washington Senators as my lifetime favorite franchise in baseball. First in war, first in peace and last in the American League. I have "Losers Depression" each winter, until the baseball equipment trucks load up for their annual pilgrimage to Florida, and spring training once again begins to rebuild my unrequited hope.
  4. But Arias was a known commodity at the position where the Twins already had Lewis, Lee, Culpepper and Huston, also previous "known commodities at SS." Granted Arias may be better than any of these Twin prospects, but Predicting the future is so difficult.
  5. If we need a fall guy, just release Pablo Lopez because he was injured all year. Or just release the owners for allowing the trade of all the good bullpen arms at one time last year. How ridiculous would that be? We don't have near enough information to form reasonable opinions about this topic. Too many variables at play here.
  6. Hindsight is 20/20. Who predicted that Tolle and Arias would become what they are a year later? Certainly not the Red Sox, who had more information than any other organization on these two fine prospects . It is so difficult to predict future greatness.
  7. What are your thoughts about moving Keaschall to 1B?
  8. 'See "Michael B. Rymarczuk , Philadelphia" on the Find a Grave website. I tried to attach it to this comment, but I am embarassed to say I was not successful. Maybe one of you TD contributors will attach it for me. Thanks.
  9. We have all had near death experiences like this, both known and unknown. Whether it is a missed flight, a 5 second delay while driving, or in my case, a night ambush patrol where I was told to stay behind and my buddy, Michael Rymarczuk went in my place. He was killed that night, July 30, 1968 in the Korean DMZ by North Korean infiltrators. I think about our different fates sometimes. But that stuff, while interesting and sometimes very painful, is part of life. I found that it helped me to find Michael's mother and his daughter 25 years later. 81.bd6dd5cf6543d44094a4.js.download

  11. Au contraire...Jeremy Zoll reached out to me yesterday with Derick Shelton on the line, and asked my opinion about this very matter. I am not at liberty to divulge any more about this 3-way conversation.
  12. Wait til next year, Levi. We're all discouraged about not making the playoffs this year. However when the snow starts melting in March or April, the Twins will reel us all in again. We are, after all, Twins fans. We love Twins baseball. otherwise we would not be cooing or complaining on TD night after night and spending hours trying to fix something over which we have absolutely no control. We are poor little lambs who have lost our way. Baa, baa, baa.
  13. Great article which speaks for me. I absolutely love the hustle and the effort and the "NO QUIT"! attitude from top to bottom. This team respects the game.
  14. The draft may be a crap shoot, I agree. But even dice balance out after a while. The Twins have rolled too many snake eyes in this crap shoot.
