  1. These are just pathetic plate appearances
  2. Will we score another run? I have my doubts
  3. Should have transitioned Jax to a starter
  4. If he doesn’t improve he will be an easy non-tender once he starts getting expensive
  5. Who’s counting? You’re retired you shouldn’t know the date or day of the week!
  6. That hit elevated the heart rate a bit
  7. Lopez injured…. Just what this bullpen needs
  8. Gasper is more trusted to field 2B than Julien? What are we doing?
  9. If the new ownership group is looking at this as a long term investment, it will be a really good time to invest in the Twins. The TV subscriptions will never be lower than it is now… Declining attendance is a direct result of people sick of current ownership. A new group and a couple of make good strategies to win back fans will do wonders. No ownership group is ever going to realize a 3,000% increase like the Pohlads and other old time ownership groups. However, over a 15-20 year period franchise valuations could double or triple if MLB moves to a national TV broadcast model like the other major sports. The problem likely arises with private equity being in the equation. They want their return as soon as possible - at the expense of destroying corporations.
  10. There’s a legitimate effort issue that’s permeated through the locker room. Julien half assed it to 1B on the final out. Maybe the throw beats him out anyway, but at least look like you’re hustling my dude. I’ve seen the same half ass effort from Correa, Miranda, and others in the lineup.
  11. This is something I’m interested in monitoring throughout the year. After years of pay walling their content on TV, many people who would be considered casual fans have found other things to do in the summer time. Other more diehard fans are pissed about the ownership situation and the continuation of not investing in the team. I’m not just talking about solely money. I’m talking about an unbalanced roster full of slow, poor defenders with bats that aren’t good enough to make up the difference. Here is where we stand after the first home stand…
  12. Pretty important week of baseball coming up, and the bullpen is gassed. A bad week could bury this team to the point of no return.
  13. Look at where he was born and went to college. There’s your answer…
  14. I thought 7-1 was a safe enough lead to turn off the game and go outside. Evidently not.
  15. The bats are waking up! Love to see it
  16. This. I’m glad they strung together hits to generate 6 runs (also thanks to horrendous defense from Houston) but it would be nice to do that more than 1 inning.
  17. The Alcalaholics are standing proud! Or stumbling, depending on your definition
  18. Pretty pathetic defense from Houston but we will take it!
  19. It’s not exactly surprising the offense continues to struggle when we ran back the same team that collapsed last year. Last season I pushed back on firing Baldelli because I think Falvey’s gonna put another Baldelli clone in the role. Still feel that way today, but it might need to be done anyway. Once the team is sold, I’m ready for a clean sweep and starting fresh with a new FO, new manager, and new philosophy.
  20. We’ve been craving it since Joe Mauer… Someone that flies through the system and becomes an immediate star in the MLB. I hope Walker Jenkins is that guy.
