    They don't provide "butts in the seats" count. They provide "tickets sold." I'd guess actual attendance is under 10000, but that's a guess. Looks pretty sparse.
  2. USAFChief
    Yup that was Watkins.
  3. USAFChief
    Damn! Had it on my Twingo card too!

    I think maybe more eyeblack, Royce.
  5. USAFChief
    They are in WAR, somehow.

    Im also on the edge of my seat but its the side edges. Damn butter pecan ice cream.
  7. USAFChief
    Maybe so. Dunno.

    There was just an ad for XOLAIR on the broadcast, which I bring up only to say that in that ad, they showed a carton of butter pecan ice cream Stuff is like crack cocaine to me. The. Best. Ice. Cream. Flavor. Ever. Period.

    Yeahbut...pre arb rasies are negligible. A couple hundred thou. Not even the Pohlads care about paying someone $750K vs $950K. Bradley will be arb eligible in 2027 no matter what they do in 2025. They traded Jax for a guy they apparently think needs time in AAA. I don't get it.

    I don't even think service time is an issue for Bradley, is it? He came into 2025 with 1.14 yrs of service time. He'll be arb eligible in 2027 with a full year in 2026, or a full year in 2026 and all the remainder of 2025 and all of 2026. And he's out of options in 2026 so he's locked into next year's active roster. Makes no sense

    Rocco's correct. If only there was some person responsible for stuff like that. A person--say a guy in charge of team play...a guy to manage all this--who could emphasize these kinds of things. Maybe teach them. Heck, even notice them before say, 7 years go by. Alas, there's just nothing that can be done

    I loath the "anybody can play anywhere" Twins philosophy. But in Martin's case, I don't think that's the issue. Martin's issue is that he's never going to be able to play anywhere. He's not a good defender. He'll never be one.

    Never done squat?? 10 years ago he was Mick Abel.

    Yeah, uh...might have been operator error there on my part.

    Say what you will, having 33 yr old Jose Urena start games for the rebuilding Twins makes SOOOO much sense.
  22. USAFChief
    Yeesh...smallest actual crowd of the year?
  23. USAFChief
    Yes. Yes it does. The C situation would be the same if the Twins were battling for the division. The issue is piss poor GM performance. That's not excused because your team sucked elsewhere too. It's also worth remembering that while there's an offseason of course upcoming as of today we're looking at next year's C duo too.

    What has 48 legs 47 arms, and 57 teeth?
  25. USAFChief
    The 58 PAs is 2025. The 871 is career. Pretty sure you could have figured that out....or did, but thought it would tank your argument. BTW, since you like OPS, care to take a guess what Wallner's OPS is this year in those 58 PAs with runners in scoring position? Spoiler alert: its .490 For the record, he has another 46 PAs with a runner on first in addition to the 58 with RISP. He's had opportunities. It might also interest you to know Wallner has more RBI this season with the bases empty than with any combination of runners on. For his career in those 871 PAs, Wallner has driven in 70 baserunners. I want to see Wallner play every day. But let's not pretend he's been very impactful. He's been a part of the problem this team has in scoring runs.
