  1. Feels like that’s an arbitration rule and not for a guy who’s entering free agency
  2. Correct. Should have been spending all of these opportunities since July 31st on fringe guys already in the system. Instead of wasting the opportunities on DFA castoffs
  3. Assuming below average defense, then .750 OPS is probably the bare minimum to be an overall positive to the roster. Even that might be too low. League average .721 OPS according to B-Ref.
  4. What do you mean by the term game? Something is happening tonight? I just saw Twilight Zone is back on Amazon Prime. Season 1 Episode 1’s title is my question.
  5. We’ve been abnormally healthy the last couple of years so it was bound to catch up to us.
  6. The empty seats behind home plate is a really bad look not just for the Twins, but MLB as a whole. My idea is everyone that scans their ticket into the ballpark is automatically entered into a lottery. If those seats are vacant by the top of the 3rd, then the lottery begins. Winners of the lottery are automatically upgraded to the fancy seats. They can do that every single home game and create memories people will cherish! It’s a gesture that costs the Twins $0 to implement.
  7. It sucks that Jerry Jones tilted the scales in the Packers' favor as NFC favorite. Gary and Parsons is the best edge rushing combo in the league now.
  8. Julien and Miranda are easy non-tenders. Good luck to them. Clemens and Outman I think will be kept as AAAA depth. SWR is gonna be on the MLB team in some capacity in 2026.
  9. It's a similar song and dance we had to do last time Kaprizov signed a contract. I'm not pressing the panic button yet...
  10. Simply put, you don’t trade away your top 5 relievers if you intend to compete the following year.
  11. I would hope Byron shared these thoughts with leadership prior to July 31st. Because the no more rebuild train left the station on that day.
  12. Soldier Field being treated by Chicago's Parks and Rec department is crazy... The Bears themselves is a $4-5 billion organization!
  13. So many arms wearing a Twins uniform this year that I have zero interest seeing them in a Twins uniform in 2026 and beyond. Not sure where I'd rank Ohl on the list of Twins pitchers this year.
  14. Also, the team formerly known as the Oakland A’s. Both of these teams have been nothing more than farm systems for the large market teams for a vast majority of my baseball fandom.
  15. Joe is going to have plenty of interest from teams this winter. 2 things that won’t surprise me at all: - He requests a trade out of Minnesota - He immediately signs a long term contract with the new team… just like Berrios did in Toronto.
  16. No kidding. We got an RB 1 for what, a 6th round pick? He's basically what the coaching staff dreamed Mattison would be, but Mason has so much more talent than he ever did. Other observations: - The demeanor and body language between McCarthy and Williams is night and day. McCarthy was bouncing around the sideline pumping up the OL and talking to KOC/McCown. Especially when it was rough going the first 3 quarters. Once the wheels were falling off for the Bears, Williams was pouting on the sideline not talking to anyone. - Rough first game for Ben Johnson as HC. Going for it on 4th down in the 1st quarter when they could have used the 3 points. Challenging the Hockenson down by contact play was bizarre.
  17. I mean, we're just as bad as the bad teams you mentioned and we want nothing to do with him anymore... I guess there's always a chance, but I think odds are very low another MLB signs him this winter.
  18. Average at best talent with a poor attitude isn't a recipe for MLB success. Why would another team give him an MiLB deal when their scouts see how much he pouts being in AAA? His next stop will be in a foreign league.
  19. It really is amazing that Chicago continues to make the wrong decisions at QB over and over again. Thank God they didn't take either Jayden Daniels or Drake Maye.
  20. Lucky we’ve got some previous chemistry with Kelly and Fries playing together in Indy. I didn’t notice too many pressures from the right side. It was almost exclusively from the LT spot
  21. Price looking like the best punt returner we’ve had in I can’t even remember. I’m just used to guys like Brandon Powell catching a punt and diving forward for a 3 yard return.
  22. Jefferson early on almost got snagged by the sod seam on a few routes. Glad we’re leaving this one with only Cashman at risk of hitting the injury list
  23. The offense is gonna look so much better with Darrisaw back at LT. The backup #67 had a brutal game.
