    Matt Caterino? He is an intriguing pitcher, who, before multiple injuries, was a rising prospect. Would someone from TD please do a story on him immediately.
  2. tarheeltwinsfan
    Lefty ? Righty ? Maybe he is amphibious.

    "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness..." Who knew when Charles Dickens wrote "A Tale of Two Cities", that the two cities he was writing about were Minneapolis and St. Paul during the Minnesota Twins' Dereck Falvey era.

    It is almost rime for spring training articles. Hurry spring. We miss you.

    Great post Doc.

    If I were Festas, I'd request to be moved to relief, just so this could be my walkup song. It would be awesome.

    Hooray for Pablo Lopez. He just passed Camilio Pascual as my all-time favorite Senators/Twins pitcher.

    Do the Twins have psychologists available for the players who actually play the game in the minors and the majors? Each player is the "man in the arena", to quote Theodore Roosevelt. The player whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who errs, but keeps trying, who knows high achievement and crushing fails. And if he fails at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.

    This is a picture of the Twins empty seats at Target Field. The number 7 pays homage to one of the greatest players ever to wear this number and answers the frequently asked question: "Who's the Twins Daddy?" It's for Mickey Mantle one of the greatest players ever who played for the Twins' "Daddy", which we must admit is the New York Yankees.

    Chaos. We've already got enough chaos in our lives. Even though we love the Twins and want them to win, this is very minor compared to the chaos in our country right now. I will not allow this situation to bother me. I will not. You folks in Minnesota are especially in my thoughts and prayers, as is our whole country.

    I think that slogan has already been adopted by the United States.
  12. tarheeltwinsfan
    I'll take it.
  13. tarheeltwinsfan
    I'll take it. I have a degree in economics from UNC and a law degree from UNC and have run a successful law firm for 50 years. Plus, I love the Twins. Hey wait a minute, maybe I'd better not do this, since I'm no more qualified to do this than I am to be president of the United States. Hey, wait a minute....

    Maybe the Twins could get some good advice about catcher prospects from Buster Posey.
  15. tarheeltwinsfan
    Ouch. Not a very good reflection on all those relief corps trades last summer.
  16. tarheeltwinsfan
    Hmmmm.
  17. tarheeltwinsfan
    I'd rather have Pereda than Jackson. Puzzling?
  18. tarheeltwinsfan
    Good luck to both Julien and Ohl. I hope they both get Rocky Mountain highs...
  19. tarheeltwinsfan
    That about sums it up.

    I would not have traded Ryan nor Lopez for either of the packages received by Texas or the Mets. Both Texas and the Mets are desperate to compete with more successful franchises in their respective viewing areas. Success is today, because tomorrow never comes. It's always a day away.

    All Joe Ryan would have to say is "No, I will not take $13,000,000. I've changed my mind.", no matter whether it is the Twins or the Yankees.
  24. tarheeltwinsfan
    I'm glad they settled the terms for 2026. I can't think of a situation where both sides would agree to $13 million for 2027 prior to going to arbitration and having Ryan make a demand. The "mutual option" aspect of this agreement makes no sense to me. In my world, a mutual option means it is not binding on either side. It is pointless. It could be a mutual option for $300,000,000 or for $3,000,000 and still be pointless.

    Cody, I agree with your article that this is what the Twins have been trying to do and what they are going to try again in 2026. My only questing is: "How has this plan worked out in the Falvey era for the Twinkies?"
