  1. I have no idea why that Pic is upside down, nor how to fix it. Deal with it.
  2. Comerica is a really nice ballpark. And they have the greatest seating innovation I've seen. The back 4-6 rows of the lower bowl were converted to areas which contain 2 lawn-chair like seats wirh a small table between. Lots of room both side to side and front to back. Absolutely great place to watch a game.
  3. I must say I DO like the idea of having Brent Rooker on the bench.
  4. I won't take down your entire steaming pile of a post, but this topper... C'mon. Seriously?
  5. At the moment you wouldn't get even just the prospect for Ober. At least one of Ryan or Lopez are getting dealt this winter. Why wouldn't you?
  6. https://www.mlb.com/twins/ballpark/information/guide
  7. Of the cast of thousands, I prefer Plouffe too. But it's tepid at best like, and I have the nagging suspicion more is not better in his case. I hope they keep looking. Sort of rebuilding the broadcast team like the actual team.
  8. Because rebuilding teams SHOULD be starting 33 yr old journeymen on their 10th team.
  9. One of Wallner's better ABs of the year, IYAM.
  10. Tough to identify effort on a spreadsheet.
  11. He's been playing baseball for 2 decades. He knows a foul bunt with 2 strikes is strike 3. And it was Rocco's decision on all 3 attempts. Hitters dont make the call to sacrifice themselves. And Rocco admitted in his post gamer he kept the sign on with 2 strikes. Maybe he reads TD, where he got ripped the day before for not having porn-stache guy bunt in the 10th.
  12. I hope to hell they aren't actually tanking. The thought of actively trying to lose is loathsome in the Nth degree. Its literally cheating. Cheating of the WORST kind...actively trying to influence outcomes with other than honest attempts to win. For those of you promoting this abomination, tell me how it works. The nuts and bolts. Is Rocco in on it? Falvey? Just Falvey? Ownership? The players? Who is it and what are they doing? By the way the Twins dont have to tank to get in the draft lottery. Just miss the playoffs. And if they manage to tank all the way to the worst record in MLB their chances of winning the lottery go all the way up to 16.5%. Whoopie!
  13. So...we make all these trades. I don't like it but I'm scolded i should LOVE these MLB ready pitchers we brought in--starters no less! Huge upside! One guy has 67 MLB starts! Another was in Philly's rotation! As good as Painter!!! The guy from Toronto is Francisco Liriano before the TJS. And tomorrow is another bullpen game, kicked off by a 33 year old who's on his 10th team. While none of those guys are on the 26 man.
  14. Could be. Hard to say. 3 of 5 good. 2 of the last 3 bad. .274/.351/.465 career. Which is the trend? 30 years old, which isnt old, but foot issues, which can be really really bad. But there's a reason teams were offering lots of money not that long ago. I'd lean downward, but it's no certainty. There's also a reason a smart team like Houston took him back at $75m.
  15. Kudos! Most people just type out a strawman and then knock it down. You, though! You type out a strawman, identify it as a strawman, and then knock it down.
  16. To real you back in to the real world, Jose Ramirez with a 2 run dinger. Like, his 148th against the Twins Edit: wait. Wait a minute. Back up. A "THC drink"??
  17. I was absolutely head over heals in love with Julien just 2 short years ago. Defense needed work, but man, for a couple months, that kid hit. 2 or 3 rockets every night, controlled the zone. Against everyone. I've had to remind myself for the umpteenth time...its baseball. Give it some time, before going off the deep end.
