    It is always easy to be the Monday morning quarterback and look back 10-15 years and say that other players should have been drafted. What I don't care for is cherry-picking the best player that the Twins could have selected. This case could be made for every MLB team every year.

    Who ever said that life was fair? You get up in the morning and you play the cards that you are dealt for that day. Tomorrow? You do the same thing.

    Ron Henry was the first player to make his major league debut in a Minnesota Twins unform when he entered the April 15, 1961 game against the Orioles as a pinch-hitter.

    I believe that Cavaco was over-rated to begin with and shouldn't even have been a first round selection so seeing him drop in the rating is not much of a surprise.

    Who drafts a first baseman that is bad in the field and has a high strikeout rate with their number one pick. The Minnesota Twins of course.

    Donaldson had a decent year in 2021, but he is not worth the money he is being paid. The team finished last with or without him. The FO made a mistake by signing him instead of investing in pitching in the first place.

    If the Twins have enough patience with Larnach he will produce. Trading him at this point would be a huge mistake.
  8. jjswol
    I guess my question would be "What exactly is his strategy?"
  9. jjswol
    With Donaldson around there really is no spot for Miranda. The 25 man roster for a team is 99% determined before ST begins and how players perform in ST rarely changes that. There are exceptions of course but usually not in the players favor. It is much easier to lose a spot on the team than it is to make the team.

    I plan to watch and wish him the best.

    Both Oliva and Kaat will get in today.

    A very nice ball player that was fun to watch. HOF worthy? Short answer is no.

    Seth, you are sounding like Sid Hartman in bringing back any athlete that passed through Minnesota.

    So the Twins hire Jayce Tingler to be their bench coach after he was just fired by San Diego for managing a team full of stars to a 79-83 record and a third place finish in his one full season as the Padres skipper.. Why am I not surprised? On the plus side he does speak English and Spanish.
  15. jjswol
    The Twins probably didn't want to pay him.

    I think a C- is being generous. A 29-28 record for the last two months is nothing to crow about, If you asked fans before the start of the season if a .500 record would be acceptable in 2021 they would have laughed at you. Twins fans and baseball experts all predicted a huge year for the Twins and the Twins FO and Baldelli fooled us all The only thing I see standing between Baldelli and a big red F is the Twins FO.

    Have you heard of the old saying that even a blind squirrel finds an acorn now and then?

    I would not call hitting .240 and striking out in 42% of your at AB's continuing to rake. Sabato is the biggest Twins first round bust in many years.

    I doubt that the Falvine/levine duo will be fired after this season but I would love to see it happen. My hope is that Falvey gets hired by the Mets and then he will know how great he had it here.
  21. jjswol
    Simmons is no where near the Twins worst free agent signings?
  22. jjswol
    Why do you think that at some point he will stop getting hurt? Some people are more prone to injury and healing times are slower.
  23. jjswol
    By 2022 I will have waited six years to open that gift box, so no, I don't trade Lewis now to sign a high priced shortstop.
  24. jjswol
    Besides being a Twins number one pick what has Cavaco done to warrant such a high rating?
  25. jjswol
    This was a good trade for the Rays, Twins and Nelson Cruz. Everyone should be pleased with what they received.
