    End of an era. I enjoyed watching him but this is the right (and obvious) move to make this offseason. Next up, figuring out how to pay Danielle Hunter. If we can’t, then he’s likely getting traded.

    The Twins should be active sellers at the deadline this year. If they luck into a division title with 82 wins so be it. They are once again light years behind the top teams in the league.

    It’s certainly not enough for me to spend my personal time off work watching them. I am grateful for the game recaps to stay up to date on the team. That’s about all I can take these days.

    Sad but true. The situation is very frustrating as a fan. I can’t imagine how frustrating it is for Falvey and Baldelli who would love nothing more than him playing 130 games a season in CF. We’re only the first year into the extension and it’s only going to get worse, I’m afraid.

    When will I know when it’s time to pick romaine lettuce?

    Encouraging news about Thielbar. Probably back with the Twins in a day or two.

    It’s just another avenue to get more potential eyes on the Twins. More options is a good thing.

    I am pretty confident that the Twins will not be broadcast on Bally Sports at the end of the season. Sounds like we are next, along with Cleveland and Arizona, to likely break away from Diamond Sports. The good news is MLB acted swiftly with the Padres and it should triple the amount of homes who can watch their games. My hope for the cord cutters is MLB will choose some channels on YouTube TV or Hulu Live TV to broadcast the games so more people can watch the Twins. Revenue sharing has to be strongly considered once the collapse of Diamond Sports is final. Most teams will never be able to recapture the revenue from their old TV contracts. Other teams like the Yankees and Dodgers will have an enormous advantage if their RSN deals remain in tact.

    We all know the correct answer… The lengths we have gone to keep Buxton off the field for even a single inning is absurd.

    Due to the division being dreadful, there is no urgency to change anything from the FO or Rocco’s rigid game plan. This team desperately needs people who can hit a baseball consistently. Instead of letting a backup 1B/emergency only 2B in Donny Barrels off roster, they decide to send down Wallner who had 8 straight PAs getting on base. I’m glad to see Lewis back without any derailments on his rehab assignment. He’s in a tough spot. The fans certainly have put all of their eggs in the Lewis basket to be the spark plug this team desperately needs.

    I discovered during the pandemic how much joy gardening brings to me. I love tending to it, watching it grow, and of course eating what you grow! Nothing better than garden fresh tomatoes in the summer time. I’ve added another tomato plant today and 3 pepper plants since I had room in the plot.

    Falvey, Baldelli, and Levine (to a smaller extent) are a package deal. No surprise that Baldelli is staying as long as they are with the organization. Baldelli is one of 10-15 managers in the game where you shrug your shoulders. I don’t think he’s a bad manager, and I don’t know if he’s a good one. As the kids say, he’s mid, bruh. If future changes are made, I would want to have a clean sweep of the FO and manager.

    We have to stop encouraging apathy towards the team just because a post or topic isn’t full of positivity.

    The Giants had 2 hits total after the 1st out of the game and still comfortably won. Let that sink in.
  16. Vanimal46
    This is likely the last game I watch live for a while. The offense stinks. Absolutely stinks. The honeymoon period for Willi Castro lasted a couple of days and now we remembered he stinks.

    What’s really nice is she sends back my original letter every time so I remember what I wrote! It’s the little things.

    Let me know if you need some help. I’ve been writing to Jessica Alba for years and get responses all the time from her personal assistant Return-to Sender. Really unique first name!

    Piggybacking off your data, here are more teams: Tampa Rays - 14 Baltimore - 14 Yankees - 19 Astros - 18 Atlanta - 14 The amount of losses a team has is pretty dang close to how many games they have scored 3 runs or less. Concur that 5 runs is the magic number to reach. If the Twins did that more consistently, they would be a top team in baseball.

    Pretty much the same theme every week. Starting pitching good, offense bad, bullpen somewhere in between. I don’t find this formula to be entertaining and haven’t been watching much Twins baseball in the last month.

    Stick around man. It’s the dead period in the NFL with nothing else to talk about anyway. There’s some interesting tie ins with the Bears and Vikings. We both hired new GMs at the same time. Vikings ran it back with the same team and now doing a phased rebuild. Y’all tore it down to bare bones and now trying to buy a team in free agency. Should be interesting to see how each strategy works out for Kwesi and Poles. Huge development year for Fields in 2023. I think he’ll make that big leap in year 3 like Josh Allen and Jalen Hurts did… I still think it’s the Vikings’ division to lose. But I’ll tell you what… I have more faith in the Bears going from worst to first than I do in the Lions winning the North in 2023. The Lions will always find a way to Lions it up.

    We’re the Roma frozen pizza of MLB. You can taste the freezer burn when it’s hot out of the oven.

    Yep. I’m hardly a fan of Pagan but it’s crazy how much hate Pagan receives on here, Twitter, and Reddit when he has a bad outing. But here we are, hook line and sinker. Pagan drives emotions and clicks so Theo can get paid.
