    Dave, Where have you been? I've been missing your acid comments. By the way, I agree wholeheartedly with what you just wrote.

    Noooooooooooooooooooooooooo !

    Shaggy has an aura when he is on the mound. I can't put my finger on any one thing...but he just looks very business-like, serious and a little scary.

    Isn't there a better option in the OF than Grossman, whom you have said "may be the worst defensive OF I've seen in a Twins' uniform"? Is it more valuable to hit LF pitching and play terrible defense in the OF, or are you looking at Grossman being a DH and pinch hitter against LH pitching? How valuable is good defense in LF or RF every 5th or 6th game? Is there a way to measure this conundrum?.

    I thought I had better say something nice to Brock, since I just absolutely destroyed him on my reply to a reply he made to a post of mine about Zack Granite vs. Grossman. By the way, Leviathan, I am not a suck up, and your posts are the most informative, knowledgeable, well written, witty posts I have ever read. Really, I mean it.

    Thanks for everything Brock.

    Really nice article. And extremely well written, I might add. Thanks for sharing your journey with us. Thanks for allowing us to walk along with you.

    Thanks for the memories.

    My top Twins' prospect is Hunter Greene, because the Twins must draft him #1 and he will leap-frog over all other Twins prospects, which the Twins already have. Period.

    I didn't realize Carlos Silva was amphibious...I mean ambidextrous... I mean left handed.

    Thank you for an awesome series. This was really a huge undertaking. It was, and will continue to be, fascinating to read.

    Sorry for the above post. The devil made me do it.

    Because of this web site and all the owners and contributors, I don't feel so isolated, as the biggest Twins fan here in North Carolina. In North Carolina we have news about the Panthers, the Hornets/Bobcats/Hornets, the Hurricanes, the beloved Tarheels and the hated Duke (rhymes with puke) Blue Devils. As far as news in North Carolina, there is nothing, nada, zero, zip about the Twins. Now with TD I can access wonderful Twins' news, pictures, videos, rumors (thanks DaveW) and most importantly, intelligent discussions, anytime of day or night. I can actually be a part of the discussions. I can even suggest a topic for discussion and get responses from other Twins fans. I feel at TD I have a group of friends with whom I can share intelligent and positive (mostly) thoughts and ideas about the Twins. Thinking back on my life, I realize how important pulling for the Senators, and now Twins, has been for me. I've enjoyed every minute of being a Twins fan...even the years when the Twins had a poor won/lost record. Those years of being a Senators' fan before they moved to Minneapolis, steeled me for long seasons of many losses. So I salute you, TD owners. Thanks for everything. And as Bob Hope would have said: "Thanks for the memories". See you in Fort Myers in 10 days!

    I had some trouble accessing my TD account several months ago and was able to gain access through twinstaheelsfan, even though my name is tarheeltwinsfan. I just want you to know I am one and the same. I prefer tarheeltwinsfan. Hope to meet some of you at Ft. Myers.

    Who will be Vielma's replacement after he breaks all four of the fingers on his left hand, by holding his bat like that while bunting?
  17. tarheeltwinsfan
    These reports are hope-filled. I am looking forward to seeing what these 5 can accomplish this year...especially Arraez and Vielma. Thanks

    Twins new motto is: "Defense" instead of hit it over "the fence"! I like it.

    My tee shirt for Spring Training 2017 says: "Worst to First-2017"
  20. tarheeltwinsfan
    What a beautiful phrase..."As the winter draws to a close...." Pitchers and catchers report in SIX DAYS! How many of you TD contributors will be at spring training for the opening game with the Rays and on Sunday to see the Twins whip the Nationals? My wife and I are driving down Thursday and Friday Feb 23rd and 24th. I hope to meet some of you there on Friday evening, Sat morning, Sunday all day. We will start driving back to North Carolina after the Twins/Nationals game is over on Sunday.

    How about Adrianza?
  22. tarheeltwinsfan
    Good stuff. Thanks.
  23. tarheeltwinsfan
    So he did well for the Cards and the Nationals the last 2 years. I wonder how the Twins' infield defense compares to the Cards and the Nationals' infield defenses, particularly on the left side?
  24. tarheeltwinsfan
    If Mauer led off and Buxton batted 9th, then Mauer and his deliberate batting eye, his taking pitches until a strike is thrown and his bat control, may allow Buxton to steal bases at an unprecedented rate for a 9th place batter. I also like it because it doesn't put the pressure of batting leadoff on Buxton, but still allows him to be followed by Mauer for 75 to 80% of his at bats.
  25. tarheeltwinsfan
    Good stuff. Thanks. Hope to have more similar articles in the future.
