    LOL. We don't know if Alan Roden is the next Mike Trout? Alan Roden is 25. Do me a favor...go to Baseball Reference, look up Mike Trout, check what Mike Trout had accomplished at the same age, and get back to us.

    Just normal sized fans.

    Looks to me like a way for the Twins to bump up attendance numbers for a night.

    So...the media should pounce? ;) I don't disagree on Rocco, BTW. He should've been gone by at least last year. I just don't think the media is responsible for the dumb **** Lewis says.
  5. USAFChief
    Pounce on stuff like what? Like Lewis flat out stating he's perfectly happy with his sub .700 OPS because trying to improve it might cost him money? I don't see that as a media problem. That's a Royce Lewis problem.

    Your theory is neither the Twins or the Phillies are aware of this, but the Chicago White Sox are? Not buying it.

    We got hosed on the Duran trade. I agree I'd rather see Abel than waste innings on dreck like Urena, but I strongly doubt Abel is ever a worthwhile starter.

    We got hosed on the Duran trade. Abel is a "prospect" primarily due to his high draft status. And that was the highly suspect 2020 draft. He hasnt performed in his minor league career outside one season,. Career minor league 5.5 BB/9. Never thrown more than 111 innings in a season. Career ERA 4.28, RA/9 4.67. 10 games under .500 W/L. We got hosed.

    Taj "seriously, don't call me Mahal" Bradley. 'Bout time.

    After an excruciating hour on the phone with a helpful MLBTV rep from Bangalore or Delhi or Calcutta, we were able to restore the TwinsTV service I bought and paid for. Perhaps they were just trying to save me from watching Abel.

    So some of you know I like to stop off pretty often at this little neighborhood bar for a beer or two. I noticed this fellow, Irish I believe, would come in every day and order two shots. He'd sit quietly for a few seconds after the shots came, and then down both. I got curious so I asked him what was the deal? "Well," he said. "Me brother is back in Ireland and I miss the lad terribly, so each day I have a shot for him, and one for me. Helps me remember." I thought that was pretty neat, and it went on for quite some time, until yesterday. He walked in, ordered only 1 shot, sat quietly for twice the normal time, then downed the single shot. "Friend," I said, almost afraid to ask. "Did something happen to your brother?" "Oh no" he said, but very Somber. "Im afraid my doctor said I haffta give up drinkin"

    Not for nothing, but thanks for taking on the thankless game thread start task. It used to be a little more involved, but having done some of this work in the past, I know it can be tiresome.

    Ha. Im TOO old to remember 1995.

    I guess we'll know Sunday.

    Just implement it MLBPA can get on board or go away. If the union is neutered so much the better. Start the 2027 season on time with whatever players show up. The current MLB players will tuck their tails between their legs and report within a month. $800K minimum wage jobs are tough to find.

    "Will the Twins have a payroll over or under $100 million in 2026?: This seems like an easy one: Yes.

    The Twins won't be offering a "streaming" package in 2026. It's called a "steaming" package.
