    Don't care how. Figure out a way to sign the man. I've been watching the Timberwolves play 14 games and all I keep hearing is that they lack heart. I've also watched the Twins let their "heart" guys walk. Rosario, Nelson Cruz. 2021 they have no heart and the only guys with heart in 2022 were Correa and Urshela. Heart. Can't measure it. Can't compete without it. Can't let those guys walk.

    Do we have to talk about it? If this guy's fixing a roster need you need to be working harder to fix your roster.
  3. dxpavelka
    Don't forget Tyler Jay who was a reliever in college.
  4. dxpavelka
    They didn't fire Molitor mid-season.
  5. dxpavelka
    Fix the rotation first. Move Duran to the rotation. If the rotation ain't fixed a fixed bullpen is useless.
  6. dxpavelka
    What I'm getting it is why the double standard? A guy can be fired but can't quit? Is there a standard 15 day notice when firing a guy. Get over it.
  7. dxpavelka
    Doesn't seem like counting on a guy who fielded and hit poorly at AA would be a good idea.
  8. dxpavelka
    I've never heard firing managers or coaches during the season described as low class......
  9. dxpavelka
    Guys who don't make the bigs until 28 typically don't last much past 32. Obvious that Tampa sees that. Nothing much to see here.
  10. dxpavelka
    Most wins after being eliminated gets the best odds.
  11. dxpavelka
    I understand your thoughts on Johnson leaving but teams fire managers and coaches mid season all the time and nobody bats an eye.
  12. dxpavelka
    I love it. Bring back May. Make Duran the ace starter so desperately needed and avoid the same mistake we made by not giving May a shot to be a starter eight years ago. This team hasn't listened to my advice for 30 years. And they have NOTHING to show for it. Bout time they start.

    The next time this, or any other team, has a perfect off-season will be the first. Do we REALLY want to pencil in Larnach & Kiriloff when neither has managed to play as many games in either of their first two seasons as the oft injured Buxton did last year? Mancini's NOT coming here, or anywhere else, for four and a half million dollars. You're at least 5 and maybe 10 million dollars light on the Rodon number. This stuff is simple on paper. Bit tougher in real life. Is Narvaez REALLY a step up from Sanchez?
  14. dxpavelka
    What the Twins REALLY miss and need is guys with heart. Stuff you can't measure with analytics. Two guys on the roster that bring that this year. Correa and Arraez. Correa will most likely be gone. Rosario gone. Has NOT been adequately replaced in LF. Cruz gone. Has NOT been adequately replaced at DH. You can argue all you want about their production elsewhere after they left but the bottom line is that their production HERE has not been replaced. Until it is we will continue to struggle. You can't make soup out of promise and young guys can't perform from the injured list.

    What do you mean you don't know who is responsible? Have you not been paying attention. Or paying attention to the Vikings also for the last 10 months. It's EVERYONE'S responsibility. Cooperation, Collaboration, Communication. Duckies & Bunnies. Peace, Love, Dope.

    And I bet that every team in every one of those bigger markets has a bigger cable deal than the Twins do. Which I bet leads to higher customer costs for cable in those markets. So, if we as fans would be willing to help subsidize it, by increasing our cable bills by 50 to 75% we'd probably be able to compete with those other markets. C'mon, let's go. Let's do our part. It's on us. Rah, rah, rah.

    I was thinking 5 years $190. Fairly long deal but not too long. Allows him to cash in one one more similar length deal afterwards maybe at an even higher number. $38 million AAV.
  18. dxpavelka
    I, for one, wish that YOU would pony up and buy the team. Then I could just get rich buying stock in World Series parades.
  19. dxpavelka
    Been saying all year: The ace we seek could be right under our noses. We did a similar thing with Trevor May eight years ago. Gave him 25 big league starts and then decided he was a reliever. If we leave Duran in the pen we'll always wonder "what if."
  20. dxpavelka
    "Prospect" is not really a word I'd use in association with any of twins catchers.
  21. dxpavelka
    5 years $190 million. Make it happen.
  22. dxpavelka
    Sarcasm. 101. Learn it dude. Actually, though, if they had 4 MLB ready SS they wouldn't be that far from the World Series.
  23. dxpavelka
    I thought WE had two MLB ready SSs. (Lewis & Martin) Or was it 4? (Lee & Miller)
  24. dxpavelka
    We have to have some young prospects ready to hit the big leagues and not be able to stay healthy. It can't just be Kiriloff & Larnach.
  25. dxpavelka
    As proof of your concept I submit the last two seasons.
