    Lol, just make it through the first month of the regular season and I will be impressed.

    I hate going off of ST, but the Twins look bad.
  3. akmanak
    Duran looked terrible, trade him for cash consideration.
  4. akmanak
    Duran was pretty rusty. Was hoping to see a little improvement with his control. Yup, it is only ST, but he looked really messy

    Until the fans show their displeasure by not filling the stadium the owners will continue to nickel and dime this team to squeeze every last penny out of until they finally sell it.

    I find this trade simply a money grab if from my understanding they are receiving 5 million. Miller was a good prospect and hopefully this will not bite us. I never mind trading prospects if we get something equally in return. This was not one of those trades and again shows the inability of Twins management to put together any type of fair trade when unloading prospects. Dodgers imo won this one.

    I get the article, but I am glad the organization got this much pushback. The owners duped the fans into purchasing a new stadium and the only way management will understand that the fans are fed up is if they simply don't show up. The management wants us to emulate the Rays? How is their attendance? How about the Royals? How many fans filter into that stadium yearly?

    This really is nothing new. The Pohlad's duped the fans into getting them a new stadium , they didn't hold true to continuing to raise payroll because of the new stadium, they have never really spent from season to season to remain competitive and they have clearly shown they don't care about rings and care more about how much profit they can squeeze out of the team.

    If he could actually stay healthy for longer than 1/4 season he might have a chance to get player of the week.
  10. akmanak
    Due to his injuries and inability to stay healthy in his short career , I am not sold that this isn't going to be a Buxton 2.0 I am having a difficult time understanding the difficulty of this team in the regards to keeping players healthy. I understand injuries happen but not to this extent. Lewis brings a tremendous amount of energy to this team, but so did Buxton. Same type of personality, but all that is for not if he can't stay healthy.

    I really don't mind this signing. It just seems the Twins are putting together a package for a starter. I think this team is starting to come together to at least make them competitive. That really is all I want. Go Twins
  12. akmanak
    Gallo 2.0, clearly the Twins love doing signings like this. For most of the fans they will pump their fists in agreement with this trade due to his past, but others who understand statistics and his overall decline will just punch the wall with their fists knowing that the Twins have no plans at actually signing a high caliber starter due to them being cheap.

    Not surprised and it is the "Twins way."
  14. akmanak
    No one believed the Twins would sweep their way into the World Series. Doesn't work like that. I hate that we lost but we didn't get blown out and we didn't even have our best pitcher on the mound. Many posters mentioned that the Ober/Maeda combo was a great idea, but now are lambasting Rocco. I liked the attempt by Rocco on this one to attempt to keep a potent lineup at bay. Let's take the next one and win this series at home.
  15. akmanak
    What a fantastic sweep. We have waited so long to see the curse broken and on the next day another bad record falls. Anything can happen and now we get bonus baseball. Go Twins!
  16. akmanak
    I agree with a bunch of the comments on here but I don't agree with keeping Jax in this bullpen. Imo he is the biggest liability and shouldn't be called upon in any close situations. Other than that I think this is one of the better pitching staffs going into the playoffs that the Twins have had in 20 years.
  17. akmanak
    Great win, can you imagine if Lewis stays healthy?
  18. akmanak
    It was a entertaining game to say the least. I think it might be time to turn the page on Keuchel unless you use him in the bullpen. He doesn't haven't anymore and is really a liability when facing good teams. Gallo needs to be dumped and give room for someone else. This experiment should be over and I just don't understand on why they are so reluctant to drop him. He offers no value in his batting and his defense is average.
  19. akmanak
    This team is such a head scratcher. What a great win tonight and games like this really give me hope that we can break the playoff curse.
  20. akmanak
    It was a nerve racking game to watch but given that the Twins have won a series or two against good ball clubs I have hope they will finally break the curse. Previous years going into the playoffs I never really believed they could go deep but I think this team actually would have a chance to do just that.
  21. akmanak
    There is no way we can compete with our current roster. We need to fill so many holes
  22. akmanak
    At least we got something. This is prime reason why the organization needs to be careful how they treat players. Hoping Buxton is traded as well so we simply can start over. The Twins are miles away from being able to compete and we might as well go young.
  23. akmanak
    I like the post but Buxton hasn’t been healthy 459 games out of 1134 games roughly. He has been injured for more than half his career. Trade him.
  24. akmanak
    Are we really discussing on how Buxton impacts this club ? He hasn’t had a healthy season except for one time. Given his injuries I would say this will never change. I thought they should of traded him two years ago when he was doing well and I think we should trade him if the return is decent. The Twins need a lot of help to being able to compete again, dump Buxton and get some pitching.

    Curious if you can get autographs at Target Field.

      I suspect "no" but I'm not sure. I doubt they've lifted the Covid protocols to that extent, as I believe journalists are still not allowed into clubhouses.
