    If Tom Pohlad really wants to earn trust back and capture the attention of casuals who have long given up on following the team… Go sign Skubal for $40+ million a year. Go trade for Pete Alonso who can mash 40 HRs a year. Sign Jeffers to a 5 year deal - that’s what it’s going to take to win the FA bid. It will be really interesting to see if Tom meddles with Zoll’s contract negotiations. He can’t afford another offseason of being “in the mix” signing top talent. We know Zoll has limits like Falvey. Will Tom say screw it we’re giving Jeffers the 5th year to win the bid?

    Hey Tom P, are you paying attention to the White Sox? Historically bad 2 years ago to likely winning a playoff series with young talent.
  3. Vanimal46
    The Twins just refuse to take their medicine, MLR... It's frustrating to say the least. We don't have to look outside the division to see an example of a team that was historically bad 2 years ago now in the playoffs with a full lineup of players 26 years old and younger.

    Why do I get the feeling the Twins are going to sign Jeffers through his mid 30s, bring back Josh Bell, and sign some back of the rotation pitcher for $10-12 million?
  5. Vanimal46
    Zoll will be back for another season. Not great, Bob.
  6. Vanimal46
    For what it’s worth…
  7. Vanimal46
    Correct me if I’m wrong but Mitchell and DeJean are both playing CB tonight right?
  8. Vanimal46
    I’m becoming more serious about trading for Case Keenum…

  10. Vanimal46
    Keenum having an incredible 1st half. I might be serious about him being the best QB on the Vikings roster
  11. Vanimal46
    He just got the interception
  12. Vanimal46
    Was a big fan of Thienemann in the draft…
  13. Vanimal46
    Hate seeing all of these players going down like flies
  14. Vanimal46
    A dumb ego driven decision by Ben Johnson to go for it on 4th down there
  15. Vanimal46
    Famous last words… We’ve all been there. I will go to my grave knowing that the New Orleans Saints stole the 2009 Super Bowl from us.
  16. Vanimal46
    Mike? Who got fired mid season from the Angels?
  17. Vanimal46
    NFC Championship game against Philly was unwatchable…

    I’ve seen this bear claw pretzel advertised most of the night. The 2nd half of that pretzel would be gross and you’re all out of the nacho cheese cup they gave you.
  19. Vanimal46
    Almost 10 years later and Case Keenum might be the best QB on the Vikings roster…
  20. Vanimal46
    I will forever have a place in my heart for Case Keenum. I hope he kicks ass tonight. A TD pass already!
  21. Vanimal46
    I would bet if we expanded the scope of starts to 16 games or less, since that was the traditional number of games, the list is far worse… My first thought was Josh Rosen who went 3-13 in 16 career starts. Your boy Nick Mullens is 5-15 in 20 career starts

    The season concluded now and these are his MLB stats for 2026: 124 starts - 509 PA - .227/.287/.380 for a .667 OPS. 15 HR - 57 RBI - 16 SB. 82 games at 1B, 37 games at 3B, 15 games at 2B. He’s not a kid anymore. Certainly not someone who can be lumped into the Culpepper, Jenkins, Keaschall, E-Rod, Gonzalez era of young Twins players. At this point, I don’t know if all of his injuries has permanently lowered his ceiling. Maybe he’ll have a year again where he’s an 800+ OPS guy down the road… That being said, I can’t envision keeping him beyond this season. Keeping him means dedicating additional time for him to become a league average 1B. Or a below average 3B. I cheered for him when he came back from AAA and lit it up in May and June. The lows are outweighing his 4-6 week hot streaks.

    There was a tweet about this I saw earlier today. Idk what their filter was on time, but McCarthy is now on this list of 3 other 1st round QBs who were released/traded from their original team after 10 or less starts… Paxton Lynch - DEN Johnny Manziel - CLE Trey Lance - SF Not exactly elite company for JJM.

    Correct. It’s crazy. All we know about Shelton is he signed a multi year contract. Is that 2 years? 7 years? I guess the only way we know is if he’s coaching in spring training that year. If he’s not, the Pohlads will say “Oh, we forgot to tell you? We decided to build an AI manager this year instead.”
