  1. 1. Killer 2. Carew 3. Mauer 4. Morneau 5. Zoilo
  2. Someday when you're bored, go look up Blyleven's first six seasons with the Twins. Prepare to be amazed, at both how good Bert was, and how much baseball has changed in a few short decades.
  3. Killebrew walked 145 times in 69,and led the AL with a .427 OBP. It's not plate discipline that limits RBI. Killer played 162 games that year, and got 709 PAs. That, coupled with 49 dingers and a .584 SLG got him the ribeyes. In the year Sosa drove in 160, he walked 116 times, .437 OBP...with 711 PAs. Its those 700-ish PAs that players today are unlikely to reach, more than walks. Not putting the ball in play is an issue, but not as much as playing time. Sosa had 150 Ks in his 160 RBI season.
  4. It was pretty obvious a 2 week delay was unrealistic. Hopefully this happens, but I'd bet against it.
  5. his great 1996 season included a SLG of .517.
  6. Cesar Tovar nonconcurs.
  7. Win the World Series. That is the definition of success in major league baseball. Anything less can be enormously enjoyable, but cant be called success.
  8. Visa problem. There's an entire thread on it.
  9. it's almost certainly on Romero, no matter who's handling it. And BTW, MLB teams typically handle the entire process. Almost all foreign athletes enter the US on P1 Visas. He's had numerous P1 Visas before, which are simple to get with a major or minor league contract, why would there be a problem this year, unless Romero's situation change?
  10. that's how Bald Deli does it, yes.
  11. A tie? I guess we weren't able to overcome the adversity of trailing 4-2. But we didn't undercome it either.
  12. Another step back in the ol' pythagorean, though.
  13. That would be two injuries for the Yankees. How's about the Twins lose Berrios and Odorizzi?
  14. Its only the third game! You're overreacting to a small sample size!!!
  15. Lt Coulumbe's grandson, I believe. Neat story.
  16. also FRICKIN' BALDELLI! Always leaves his starter in WAY too long.
  17. WORST TRADE EVER!!1!
  18. I could see a scenario where the Twins win the most games in the AL this year. But I don't think they're "the best team" by any other measure.
