    Some things to celebrate in a disappointing season. I would have added Duran to the list at #3. I wonder if Duran could be converted into a successful starter?

    If the mindset of the Twins players is similar to the mindset the 6 previous comments posted here, then no wonder the Twins are losers. You become what you think about. Self full filling prophesies have an actual psychological basis.

    The Twins might need nine.
  4. tarheeltwinsfan
    Bill Belichick may be available.

    I always thought Tom Kelly allocated his time working with the players.

    The current trend seems to be to hire a tv personality. I suggest Audra Martin.

    I wish Rocco well. I appreciate his efforts, although I did not always agree with his decisions. He was always a gentleman and seems to be very well spoken. Now that Rocco has been fired, can TD please do something to remove the highlight reel of Rocco's favorite record setting pinch hitter, Manuel Margot?

    I am going to miss these debates. They take my mind off other debates going on in our country today.

    Please no more of Tonkin. Please.
  10. tarheeltwinsfan
    Exactly what I was going to suggest. Maybe several of them.

    The fat lady is not through singing yet. Go Twins!

    You got me Indiana. Thanks.
  13. tarheeltwinsfan
    Thanks for correcting my error, Stringer. You are correct. I was mistaken. I'm happy for Royce Lewis.

    Plus Julian's foot being off 1B on a play at 1st.

    It's more of a 22 HR and 24 SB pace. He could raise that batting average by hitting to right field more.
  16. tarheeltwinsfan
    I have been pleased with Lewis's improvement in defense at 3B.

    Since you went away the days grow long, And soon I'll hear old winter's song. But I miss you most of all my darling, when autumn leaves start to fall.

    Early one morning at spring training this year, I remember watching Rod Carew, who was standing behind the batting cage, working with Austin Martin on bunting, over and over. After the bunting session was over, Carew walked over to the fence where I was standing. He was holding a fungo bat. He told me he did not understand why players didn't bunt more. I asked him the secret of bunting and he said: "Listen to the sound of the bat meeting the ball". I hope Carew saw Martin's beautiful bunt last night.

    As long as the Twins owners and/or front office have a philosophy of trading the only major league capable hitting and fielding position player at a critical position (in this instance...the most critical position player to the entire pitching staff of 13 players) two years before he is eligible for free agency, with absolutely no reasonable replacement available , then the Twins will be a floundering, losing baseball team.
  20. tarheeltwinsfan
    Where is La Tortuga. He could alternate between catching and relief pitching and pinch running.
  21. tarheeltwinsfan
    I agree Doc, but I must add 3B as a key defensive position also. Lewis does fine there.
  22. tarheeltwinsfan
    Who plays shortstop in this scenario? Lee is not a quality defensive SS yet.
  23. tarheeltwinsfan
    Exactly correct. Good points.
  24. tarheeltwinsfan
    Good point. Look at the Green Bay Packers' history.

    "Well it's been a quiet week in Lake Wobegon, Minnesota, my hometown, out there on the edge of the prairie." "Sumus quot sumus" is the motto for Lake Wobegon. It means "We are what we are."
