    I was hoping I wouldn't ever see that ******* windup again. Just another reason to hate the White Sox.
  2. USAFChief
    There is no try. There is only do or not do.

    Randball's Stu breaks out of a sustained slump bigtime! BIGTIME!!! "Zachary was in a timeout for not sharing at recess and would address the media at an undetermined future date when he started making better choices." Hahahahaha

    Weird. Houston must think RBI are important.
  5. USAFChief
    Damn. Such a loss. Rest in Peace, and many thanks for all the joy I got through the years listening to your voice, and in the years to come. You will be missed.
  6. USAFChief
    Zero people? You can't be serious. "RBI are meaningless" is orthodox stathead-ology.
  7. USAFChief
    Funny how RBI aren't important until nobody has any. Abreu would be a fantastic addition to this lineup. Fantastic. The guy drives in runs.

    Is Andrew McCutchen an under the radar add? Or am I crazy? Yes.

    Nico Goodrum was signed as a FA, not as a trade target. He also appeared in 15 games and had 45 PAs for the Astros. There's no need to trade for Kyle Farmer. Like Nico Goodrum, or Jermaine Palacios, every team already has a couple three Kyle Farmers in their system and there's another couple dozen available as cheap free agent minor league depth. Dollars to donuts Farmer is a starter on the 2023 Twins. Barf.
  10. USAFChief
    What's the difference? None of these players, including 32 year old Farmer, are going to help win a pennant. They're there because you need 26 players on the roster. What good comes from Kyle Farmer? How does that get the Twins to a WS?
  11. USAFChief
    Why are we trading for a "backup"? I get less and less impressed by this front office weekly.
  12. USAFChief
    Well said.
  13. USAFChief
    These are AWFUL.
  14. USAFChief
    It took you five minutes to decide to do the right thing?? Keep it.
  15. USAFChief
    I lost a ten spot recently, pretty sure it was at the Prospect Park Station on the Green Line. Anybody finds it, PM me at TwinsDaily.
  16. USAFChief
    Which fact did I ignore...last WS over 30 years ago, or last postseason win pre-Twins Daily and then some?
  17. USAFChief
    I explicitly cited history. More than 30 years of history since a WS appearance. The last postseason win, much less winning series, is a distant memory. History? Please.
  18. USAFChief
    The Pressly trade was a poor decision in foresight, not just hindsight. And in the long run, Alcala may yet produce, but Celestino isn't even worth mentioning. He provides no value, and in fact hurts the team by occupying a roster spot.
  19. USAFChief
    Dunno. Sooner with players as good as Correa than without. I do not subscribe to the theory of "wait until you have good players to sign good players." I don't believe the finances are beyond the Twins capabilities. I don't believe signing market rate contracts for good players prevents the Twins from acquiring or developing other good players. Developing good players is needed whether we sign free agents or not. Sitting around waiting for the stars to align and our farm system to win us a World Series isn't going to work, IMO. It certainly hasn't for decades. Hasn't even won us a single postseason game in a long long time. When I watched the postseason, what I saw was teams with superstars mixed in. Players much better than average. Get some. Find more. Don't let opportunities to get one go by easily.
  20. USAFChief
    I'm gonna need more than your word on this.
  21. USAFChief
    Not sure I agree with the logic here, Aggies. "Don't sign good players because we don't have enough good players."
  22. USAFChief
    My work here is done.
  23. USAFChief
    Quite the defender too. In fact, he got to the point he could properly position himself to intercept throws from the outfield without as much as a single day of practice. That's right...he made cold cuts.
  24. USAFChief
    Brock: we need a "groan" emoji. Also: it should be noted Hrbek hit a home run with the based loaded in that world series. That's right...wait for it...a GRAND SALAMI!
  25. USAFChief
    Precisely.
