  1. I agree. For this season, we are fighting over scraps at the bottom of the league. Let's get the talented kids up as soon as they are "ready" and start to see the next generation. They may or may not be good enough to be the core of a winning team, but we won't know until we start to see who is worth building around.
  2. Do you really think that the Twins (and Rockies) are "Just Fine?" The Twins are bad; the Rockies are horrible.
  3. This might be a record year for the Twins: most players cycled through the roster. If you've been DFAed by another team, the Twins are like calling 911.
  4. Do all of the Twins fielders wear noise-cancelling earbuds in the field? Or do they all just assumed teammates can read their thoughts?
  5. I'm betting on a long lockout. How does that affect the status of one-year deals such as the one proposed with the QO? Do we have to pay the full year if he only plays half? What if the whole year is canceled?
  6. All spring long, TD raved about the Saints team. They don't look so great these days. Injuries? Or is it just that losing is contagious and the Twins mediocrity has infected the whole system?
  7. Buxton reminds me of Ernie Banks for the 1960s Cubs. Great player on terrible teams.
  8. Hitting for power matters, but, especially without it, speed matters, too. When you haven't much of either ... It's going to be a long season!
  9. The best reason to let him play against right-handed pitchers is that it will get Wallner out of the lineup. The current version of Wallner is a black hole in the lineup and a disaster in right field.
  10. I'm imagining a squad of ants marching in formation carrying bats over their shoulders like rifles ...
  11. Looks like the Saints are learning the "Twins Way." Get ahead early, then close down the offense and let the bullpen blow it. 😟
  12. If he was a bad swimmer, why wasn't he wearing a life jacket himself?
  13. One could say the same thing about many projected Twins starters...
  14. I keep reading these articles thinking there might be some hope. Then I read them and shake my head. It's going to be a long season with lots of empty seats and low TV viewership.
  15. My pessimistic guess: He never pitches for the Twins again: Out this year with the UCL, no season next year, and off to resurrect his career with someone else the year after.
  16. He plays naked? That might fill some seats (or not).
  17. I think we may have different definitions of "competitive" than the owners. For them, "being competitive" likely means getting enough butts in the stands and eyeballs on the screen to make them money without incurring high costs. Not irrational. (But then I'm an economist...)
  18. With the demise of the penny, one wouldn't actually be able to pay two cents in cash for anything! Would you accept a check or a credit card?
  19. Sorry, but this team needs much more than a miniature collie...
