    Owners have already suppressed free agency costs. I guess the next logical step for them is suppressing arbitration costs so they can pocket MOAR money. Would the decision with Gausman change at all if he was projected to receive $8 million instead of $10 million? Or $6 million instead of $10 million? We'll never know, but I'm willing to guess the additional $2-3 million dollars wasn't the primary reason he was non-tendered.

    The trend this off-season appears to be teams not willing to pay for bounce back potential. Gausman is one of a dozen or so players now who were non-tendered because they are coming back from injury, need time to recover from an injury, or had a rough 2019. If other teams aren't willing to do it, why should the Twins?

    No Twins on the list

    Season 2 admittedly got weird. Especially the first couple of episodes in that season. It ramps up quickly though once they get through the weird stuff. Season 3 and season 4 are no doubt home runs.

    If the Twins are out on Wheeler I shutter to think what the backup plan is.

    It’s not April Fools Day.... Wait, they’re serious? Yikes.

    I’m sure the Athletics are chomping at the bit to trade the best defensive 3B in the game...
  9. Vanimal46
    Step 1 is actually scheduling a meeting with Wheeler.

    The defense is declining quickly. It’s no longer a coincidence, it’s a pattern, they can’t get off the field. The “bend but don’t break” defense is frustrating to watch.

    If anyone has kept up with this show (final season!) you’ll know this show is elite! I hope it gets the recognition it deserves before it’s all over.
  12. Vanimal46
    Yes!
  13. Vanimal46
    Sucks but expected. He’s been lost for a long time. Hope he finds his groove elsewhere!

    2 years in a row non-tendered... Good luck to him. I’m okay with this as long as there’s a plan in place to get someone better.
  15. Vanimal46
    Agreed. That’s even more crippling to a lower revenue team than paying someone like Moose $2-3 million more AAV than his perceived value.
  16. Vanimal46
    Out of all the contracts signed so far, which admittedly is not a huge sample, people have said “Glad the Twins didn’t make that offer!” People realize cheap contracts can also be bad contracts, right?
  17. Vanimal46
    Big money for Moose.

    Would be nice to see the Gophers play in one B1G Championship game in my lifetime... I’m sure they would get blown out by Ohio State but it’s still something I’d like to see. I hope this isn’t the peak we’ll see in the Fleck era. The road is only going to get more difficult when they have to play Ohio State, Michigan, and Michigan State again.

    Got out coached today. Wisconsin was a step or 2 ahead of the Gophers since the 2nd quarter. Sigh...
  20. Vanimal46
    That was uhh... quite the kickoff formation.
  21. Vanimal46
    Ugh... bad throw. Morgan should have done literally anything else with the ball.
  22. Vanimal46
    Fumble!!! Gophers ball! Row the boat!!

    The 1998 home run race between Sosa and McGwire sparked my love of baseball. I would try to stay up past my bed time and watch Baseball Tonight on ESPN... If I couldn’t do that I’d read the box scores in the paper every morning. My family attended Twins games but they were irrelevant in those days. I remember the first Twins game I ever went to Bob Tewksbury was throwing beach balls down Broadway. Didn’t truly become a Twins fan until 2001 when the kids finally started gelling together.

    Anyone at College Football Game Day?? Looks frigid in the home land today.

    Verizon has a pretty sweet black Friday deal going on. Get a new iPad for $100 with the purchase of a new iPhone... Guess I'm joining the apple family now.
