  1. If Dave St Peter worked in a marketing/demand generation role at any other company with these results, he would have been fired years ago. Unfortunately he has a lifetime pass to the Twins Country Club. I’m very concerned that he is leading the TV contract negotiations. He is so far behind the times it’s crazy.
  2. Regardless, 100% yes to bring back Nelson Cruz as either bench coach or hitting coach if he’s interested in those roles.
  3. I don’t know if this is a Mandela Effect but I could have sworn he was signed by the Dodgers to be a hitting consultant for their minor leagues. Per his Wikipedia, On May 17, 2024, MLB hired Cruz as a consultant to the league. His full title was listed as 'special advisor for baseball operations,' with the intent for Cruz to serve as a liaison for MLB on topics in Latin America.
  4. Not exactly surprising. The offense looked good sometimes. When it was off, it was unwatchable.
  5. Sands and Jax were both spectacular this season. I do wonder if they will ask one of them to build up stamina and return to the rotation? Morneau was talking about Jax’s goal to get back in the rotation during the Marlins’ series.
  6. This is a well researched and well written post. It can’t be overstated how much of a PR disaster the last 12 months have been for the Twins. The TV debacle really pissed me off as a fan. They challenged people to go find something else to do with their time and I did. This season was the least amount of baseball I’ve watched since the dark days of 2011-2014. I think it was a cowardly move by Joe Pohlad to speak for the first time all year without cameras during the Vikings and Packers game. He didn’t want further attention to his comments. And he mentioned the word business way more than championship. Basically every business entity the Pohlad family has given Joe to operate has been run into the ground. Sold for pennies on the dollar.
  7. Thanks for putting the numbers together John. Once again, the Twins won’t be able to look at free agency to fill needs beyond the ST invite type players. No trade clauses can be waived by the player… So does Correa want to be here knowing he will take up 25-30% of the payroll? Does Royce Lewis want to be here for the long term? Judging by his recent comments I doubt it. Lots of tough decisions to be made this offseason.
  8. Let’s not repeat that 2nd half ever again this season. 4-0 baby! 3-0 in the NFC, 1-0 in the division. I don’t think even the rosiest glasses wearing fans would have guessed this outcome.
  9. That’s a catch
  10. Where would we be without this defense??
  11. Now let’s please grind out this clock
  12. Phew! Murphy INT and now we can breathe for a second.
  13. Haha still no
  14. First adversity we’re facing this season. Let’s see what they’re made of
  15. 6 point game. Blood pressure officially on the rise…
  16. Alright, need some points on this drive
  17. Offense needs to put up points here. A 3 score lead with this much time left is still feasible
  18. Who cares? Seasons over
  19. Our kryptonite on offense is still getting blitzed up the middle. Also, brutal punt by Wright. Come on man no one had a shot to down it before the end zone.
  20. All of us sitting on our couch have more passing yards today than Bo Nix through halftime
  21. Such an unnecessary TD for GB. Just let the punt go by you Nailor
  22. Why did Nailor even try to field that punt??
  23. We are dominating 3 media daring Super Bowl contenders in consecutive weeks. This is insane
  24. This isn’t reminding me of 2017 anymore… this is reminding me of 1998.
