    I'm ready for Royce Lewis...even though he may not be ready.
  2. tarheeltwinsfan
    I predicted this exact outcome...right down to the bases loaded strikeout in the bottom of the ninth. By the way, I own this bridge in Brooklyn....

    Good luck tomorrow Lance!
  4. tarheeltwinsfan
    Yes it was. This was absolutely the most exciting game I have seen all year. This is why I suffer through all the losses.
  5. tarheeltwinsfan
    Twins were good and lucky. I'll take it every time.
  6. tarheeltwinsfan
    What a Ball game!
  7. tarheeltwinsfan
    4. This is going to be fun.

    I did not see Chattanooga Lookouts on the list of teams available to watch. Did I make a mistake?

    Congratulations Ryan Jeffers. However I wish the Twins had waited a week for this promotion, since I am driving 3 hours this weekend to scout the Elizabethton Twins for TD. ( don't worry owners this is pro bono, although donations for nachos, cheese, jalapenos, hot dogs and drinks will be gladly received by my son and me. Call me at BR549 and give Junior Samples (the person answering the phone) your credit card number and pin number). So which players (besides Chris Williams, and Severino and the 2018 highest draft pick , Trevor Larnach, do you want me to try to interview? The GM of the E-Twins, Mike Mains, is a friend of mine. (I am a shameless name dropper.)

    Mark Davidson, who played OF for the 87 World Champion Twins is an assistant baseball coach at Clemson as he pursues his 4 year degree under a new program which Clemson has for former Clemson athletes ( which Mark is one) to be able to come back to Clemson and get their degrees. Mark's daughter played tennis at Stanford and Mark's son, Logan, is the staring SS at Clemson and had a really good year last year as a freshman. Mark is from my hometown of Statesville, NC and used to beat me badly at racquetball. I wonder if the Twins checked on Chris Williams through Mark, before drafting Chris?

    Why hasn't Astudillo caught some games while he was in the majors? He surely wasn't promoted for his speed...but he was a breath of fresh air when he played.

    I sure hope the FO understands what this article clearly states. The Twins needed a catcher and got Castro for 1 year. That was good enough for 1 year, but stuff happens and now the Twins need another, full time, above average framing, fielding, and hitting healthy catcher. If the FO expects this team to win next year, this must be a top priority.

    Well written, poetic opening ...watching the fans' goodwill "evaporating like the mists rising from the Kauffman Stadium fountains". That is some beautiful writing. Red Smith would have been proud.

    I'd rather discuss bat flips tonight than the Twins being swept by KC on a Drew Butera ITPHR. No bat flip by Butera today.
  15. tarheeltwinsfan
    If an ex-Twin had to hit an inside the park HR to beat the Twins, then I'm glad it was Drew Butera.
  16. tarheeltwinsfan
    Any chance of seeing Vasquez on the Twins this year? What is his strikeout pitch? i
  17. tarheeltwinsfan
    Sorry, I have not seen him pitch.

    Much better analysis than my original statement. Thanks.
  19. tarheeltwinsfan
    I agree. 6' 8" 215 lbs...Great strikeout to inning ratio. Already had TJ surgery and most importantly, his college coach said, "He's a great kid. He's why you get into coaching." I'm really excited about his future. He grew up 30 miles from where I live.
  20. tarheeltwinsfan
    Good column. Your introductory paragraph was spot on. I enjoyed the new format. Thanks.
  21. tarheeltwinsfan
    It took the US Army 8 weeks to change me from a carefree college boy to a lean, mean, green, killing machine. Seriously. 1967.
  22. tarheeltwinsfan
    I have to trust the powers that be regarding whether Sano is ready to try again. If a demotion from the major leagues to class A ball does not get Sano's attention, then what will? Everybody falls down some in life...it's how you get back up that counts.
  23. tarheeltwinsfan
    I hope they can build some momentum going into the 2018 post-season.
  24. tarheeltwinsfan
    I sure would like to see the Twins sign an above average defensive, throwing, pitch framing and hitting for average and a little power, catcher.
  25. tarheeltwinsfan
    I like this.. Catcher is our weakest organizational position. Let's get one.
