  1. The incredible thing is there are people on this website that believe Tom P is different than the other 3 Pohlads we’ve dealt with over the last 40 years. Tom Pohlad handing a couple of $20 bills to Trevor Plouffe one night, the equivalent of throwing pennies at someone for Tom, won people over.
  2. I wonder if Tom P realizes that him pivoting away from the rebuild already in progress only prolonged the situation? Probably not, since that requires some level of baseball knowledge and none of the younger Pohlads besides Joe seems to have that. It can't be overstated how much the Pohlads have knee capped this organization since the end of 2023. I remember through the GM meetings in December, Falvey said he still didn't have a budget to work with. Because the Pohlads were too busy trying to boot Joe out of the picture.
  3. They're hiding him on the roster like he's a rule 5 draft pick. As frustrating as it is for us fans, imagine how he feels. He's had 4 PA total since the trade deadline. If I'm him, I want to play... not rot on the bench.
  4. As a dog owner I fully agree. My dog is much happier staying at home instead of running errands with me. I only go on hiking trails with him now and avoid dog parks because there are too many ignorant dog owners. Last time I took him to a dog park, one of those "Don't worry he's friendly!" off-leash dogs drew blood on my dog and bit me too.
  5. The magic may be gone with Gomez. 2 straight blown saves
  6. Will Trout be a 1st ballot HOF because he was the darling in the beginning of the analytics era?
  7. The Twins will trade him. #1 overall picks have a long leash in the pros.
  8. Great hitter. Don’t think he has a future in the field.
  9. If Zoll is here we’re not spending that type of money on a reliever. He will be a $15+ million reliever for 2-3 years. I am a big fan of Minter he’s been awesome all year
  10. Let’s just take that chopper foul to 1B as the sample. Does Luke Keaschall catch that?
  11. Might as well run Minter into the ground at this point
  12. Joyce casually throwing 102 is a sight to behold. Wow.
  13. Platooning Lee specifically seems like a pretty good idea if he’s in the low 600s throughout his career already.
  14. Here’s a real question for the TD writers… When do you tell a switch hitter to stop switch hitting because they’re unplayable from one side? Brooks Lee this season has a .574 OPS entering tonight as a RH vs LH pitching. In his career entering tonight, it’s a .621 OPS in 420 PA. @Nick Nelsonif you can cook something up in the kitchen…
  15. How about that? Twins rookies with back to back hits 👀
  16. This team gave up on the season. Bring on the tank baby!
  17. Not anymore. I underestimated how bad their defense is. Giving up 30 to the Saints now 41 to the Bills. They’re not going to win the division with a defense like this.
  18. He’s the type of player that has to hit .280+ if not over .300 to make up for his adventures in the field. If he ends up being a .230 hitter he’ll be out of the league in a flash.
  19. Left field at Target Field also requires an above average arm. I think he’s just a DH. What’s the position on the field to hide your worst fielder these days? It used to be 2B…
  20. Idk what Keaschall’s position on the field is going to be, if any. It’s certainly not RF or CF. That’s going to be the million dollar question this offseason. The current trend on this website is 1B but he has a real challenge catching the baseball.
