  1. The world is not ready to see Dallas Keuchel in a Twins uniform
  2. Boxers also walk out of the ring after they get knocked out. Tim Anderson got clocked and didn’t know what day it was.
  3. Moran optioned to St Paul. Headrick recalled.
  4. Thanks @wsnydes. I’m reporting live 10 minutes west of Target Field and can confirm…. It’s cloudy. There’s a haze in the air today and I don’t know if it’s Canadian wildfire smoke, marijuana smoke, or just a normal haze we had before. No sign of moisture just yet, but if you’re going to Target Field, bring the largest umbrella you have. The person behind you will thank you for shielding them at the game. We will be reporting back every hour on the hour This is Vanimal, Channel 8 the Ocho.
  5. Great day all around! Always fun when so many Twins legends are at the same place on the same day. Rumor has it, everyone in the lineup had a 15 minute pregame session with Mauer’s Quick Swing. The results speak for them self!
  6. It’s rare to see two baseball players drop the gloves and square up like boxers on the field. So far it looks like a bizarre situation that is unclear why it happened. Ramirez wins the fight via TKO in round 1. More to come, obviously.
  7. Harmon Killebrew would buy Vance Worley a beer knowing he wrote his self-appointed nickname legibly!
  8. For the time being, it’s a blessing. The goal needs to be getting him to the point where he can play in the field full time in 2024. If it requires a more severe, intrusive surgery, get er done.
  9. The timing couldn’t have worked out better for me to be a life long Joe Mauer fan. I was 14 and sports, sports, sports, my whole life was just sports. I don’t collect autographs anymore, but one thing I do have and will keep for life is a 2003 spring training program signed by Joe. It’s framed and waiting to be displayed proudly again one day*. *Next to the signed Matt LeCroy picture I have
  10. Salsa is on the agenda this weekend! I dug up 2 white onions earlier this week and let them dry out for the occasion. I’ll have 10-12 more tomatoes to pick tomorrow along with 5-6 long peppers.
  11. Yeah, if Correa and Buxton are both broken down players, we’re about to enter times darker than the late 90s or the early 2010s. Part of me believes Correa got so discombobulated after the free agency he just experienced that this was going to be a rough year no matter where he signed. Getting 2 10+ year contracts only for the team to pull away at the last second has to affect a person mentally.
  12. Not fun with numbers.
  13. It’s just sad talking about Buxton like this so soon. I’m sure we all figured it would end like this with Buxton’s body betraying him. The hope was it would be delayed until his age 34 or 35 season. Not when he’s 29.
  14. Will the Twins pick up an old friend when they’re down?
  15. I think you may be on to something. Or maybe that’s just wishful thinking to move past this FO and manager trio after the season.
  16. I still can’t believe it’s August 1st and Joey Gallo is wearing a Twins uniform.
  17. Good article Seth. Whoever they acquired today wasn’t going to move the needle enough. Frankly, if Buxton and Correa don’t hit even previous career norms, there’s nothing they can do to fix it. Part of me wants to believe that Joe Pohlad told Falvey this is your mess. Win with the players you chose, or you won’t be running the show after the season.
  18. Standing Pat at the deadline. Tough scene for Falvine. Gotta win with these players or see ya later.
  19. Derek Falvey to the anxious Twins fans.
  20. Derek Falvey after offering Joey Gallo for Paul Goldschmidt and $15 million cash.
  21. Derek Falvey arrives at the Twins’ office. Receptionist: “Good morning Derek! Exciting day today huh?!” Falvey: “Good morning! Exciting? What do you mean?” Receptionist: “Today is the trade deadline, Derek. You’re already receiving voicemails from the east coast teams.” Falvey: “Oh, that’s right. Keep sending them to my voicemail, okay? I’ll be right back.”
  22. Thad Levine: “Derek? You have to make some decisions today.” Falvey:
