    This is true.

    Really? You're going with that? That's your metric?

    I'm a long (looooooooong) time fan, and I can honestly say I have never been more down on this franchise. Part of it is the changes to baseball itself. I don't enjoy the game as much these days. Fewer balls in play,, zero real starting pitchers, the emphasis on analytics over playing baseball, and on and on. The complete and seeming intentional competitive imbalance. But mostly, I feel like the Twins have abandoned me. Like every single decision is meant only to squeeze maximum revenue out of me, rather than to try to win. I haven't abandoned the Twins yet. But I feel pretty close. And I never would have said that, even through some pretty lean times in terms of wins. I hope a sale happens, happens soon, and new ownership puts me higher in their "things I give a **** about" hierarchy. And on a larger scale, Major League Baseball itself needs a reset. Find some ways to start playing baseball again, because whatever this is, it aint what i call baseball . And for heaven's sake, get a reasonable salary cap system in place immediately.

    Ha! I missed that, but damn if it doesn't.

    Seriously?? Who owns the Texas Rangers? I don't know, but I wager an overwhelming majority of Ranger fans know. Ditto the Baltimore Ravens. Ditto the Montreal Canadians. And the vast, overwhelming majority of Twins fans knows who owns the team. Even casual fans. Even casual Minnesota sports fans in general. It's not just TD readers.

    Yet Another TD writer who can't or won't be objective when it comes to Rocco Baldelli. The opposite of "analytically inclined. "

    Speaking of missing the point...

    Watch Twins hitters in clutch situations...they're on the defensive. Watch Twins pitchers in clutch situations....they're on the defensive. Way too often, on both cases. It's been this way a lot, for a long time now. What's been the constant during all that time?
  14. USAFChief
    Serious teams do not have Ty France as option 1 at first base.
  15. USAFChief
    2 out RBIs from your big stud?? Nope.

    Is this Holmes guy moonlighting as the lead singer for a 70's metal cover band?
  17. USAFChief
    Hrbek "pushed" him off? Pushing him would have sent Gant toward 2nd base.
  18. USAFChief
    How do we feel about 3?
  19. USAFChief
    8 pitch inning, 3 weak pop-ups.
  20. USAFChief
    Holy cow, 9?? That'll be 11 PM for Minnesotans!!
  21. USAFChief
    Does Ryan have a pitch other than fastball?
  22. USAFChief
    The actual magic number in MLB is 5. Across MLB, score 5 runs and you'll win more than you lose. Score 4 and you'll lose more than you win.
  23. USAFChief
    AKA "BS Effect"
  24. USAFChief
    Can only think of one thing Twins related...What time is the Wild game?
  25. USAFChief
