  1. I think Cody meant to type "younger" instead of "older".
  2. I agree with Max Kepler when he said, It is very sad. that we can't go to Canada together as a team. Alas, if only you could do something about that Max....
  3. Correction, the "team" does not go to Canada. The players who are vaccinated go to Canada. And as Forrest Gump said: "That's all I've got to say about that."
  4. I hope the Twins draft either Kevin Prada or Kevin Susac. Both are consensus top 10 ranked prospects who are college catchers at Georgia Tech and Arizona, respectively. This will fill a current need for the Twins minor league system and 2-3 years down the road, one of them will be catching for the Twins.
  5. Interesting points. I must agree, though I would rather have Sanchez batting right now. Maybe the Twins can have the hotter hitting of the 2 catchers batting more, as their hitting ebbs and flows during the season.
  6. One game at a time is a good motto. One pitch at a time is even better. Learn from the past. Live in the present. Hope for the future.
  7. Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.
  8. It's lucky for the Twins that Detroit is not in Canada. Also, lucky that the Twins are not in the AL East and have to go to Toronto 16 games or something like that. Hope the Twins don't have to play Toronto in October in the playoffs. Maybe I should have fought "for my rights" not to have all those painful shots by air guns in both arms and both hips when I was shipped to Korea by the US Army. Baloney. How about "personal choices" to use performance enhancing drugs? Do you still feel it is not your place to judge?
  9. While I understand your point, I cannot agree to trade Correa if the Twins are still in the lead in the AL Central, or even close to leading the AL Central , then the Twins cannot weaken the 2022 team, by trading Correa for players to help in the future seasons, but not in 2022.
  10. Thank you for an excellent summary of a crazy week, during which the Twinkies kept grinding out victories.(mostly).
  11. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. In my humble opinion Donaldson was the worst free agent signing in my memory due to his mouth..
  12. If they are only going to pitch 4-5 innings per game, why not use Bundy and Archer in the same game?
  13. Plus 2 of the next three hitters batted left handed. I totally agree. Smeltzer's ERA is 1 .
  14. I agree. Even the 0-18 Twins can take it all. Go Twins. It's time for Ritchie the Rally Goat to butt the playoff jinx into the Mississippi River.
  15. The Twins have so many young players who are improving every game and who are gaining confidence, the team will get better. I predict the Twins will rise to the occasions in June and at least break even against the evil empire and the other really good teams in the American League. Then if Maeda and Acala return healthy, and the Twins avoid injuries and avoid getting into bench clearing brawls with Josh Donaldson and his Yankee supporters and if Buxton starts bunting some, just to loosen things up and he gets his batting average back to above .250, then the Twins will still be playing when the first snow falls in Minneapolis... in October.
  16. I couldn't agree more. Thanks for this article, post, statement.
  17. I agree 100%. Sounds like you understand it very well.
  18. Plus the newly signed Ritchie the Rally Goat says we can do it. It's all about a team effort. This team is special.
  19. Yes, they can because the Twins have a contract with "Ritchie the Rally Goat", aka "The Little Goat that Could". I think I can, I think I can, I think I can, I knew I could, I knew I could, I knew I could.
  20. Both Gray and Correa referred to the brotherhood on the Twins team this year. That is nice to hear, especially from these two recently acquired Twins, who are respected veterans. My question is this: "Which came first, the brotherhood or the wins?"
  21. He is worth every penny of the 35 million dollars this year (that's $216,049.38 per game). Hopefully he will be worth every penny of 105 million dollars and will stay at least 3 years as a Minnesota Twin. What a brilliant "out of the box contract" by the FO and Correa's agent. And what a brave commitment by the Twins owner.
  22. I hope the Yankees keep Donaldson. They deserve each other.
