  1. No doubt. Let's start with both parties listening to one another, and agreeing on at least a couple of compromises for the next season. The marriage is lasting 4 full years...
  2. Many insiders noted that the Twins, White Sox, and Yankees were interested in Happ.
  3. We've got problems if the best team in baseball needs salary relief.
  4. This sums up my thoughts on the subject.
  5. Which is funny because during Falvey's interview on 1500 ESPN he thinks of himself as a people manager first, analytical second. But I recall players like Dozier and others say as they leave the organization say the duo is cold and metrics driven.
  6. Twins lose out on another target.
  7. Wait, you mean to tell us good teams don't fill 6 holes on their roster every year?
  8. For weeks Treadwell has been the primary read on pass plays which has driven me bonkers. Good teams know how to motion their best guys around to get them into open space. KC immediately comes to mind with how often Tyreek Hill moves around pre-snap. We have 2 of the better WRs in the game. It's unacceptable Thielen had 0 targets through nearly 3 quarters of play last night.
  9. Agreed. I was all in on Kirk and still feel that way today, even though right now it looks like the wrong decision. This team wasn't going anywhere with Keenum leading the way again. And we still haven't seen Teddy play in 2 years so he's a complete unknown starting 16 games. Regardless, bold moves like this usually result in a lot of people getting fired. The OC is the first of potentially several firings over the next year or 2.
  10. The decision to sign Kirk could end up costing Flip, Zimmer, AND Spielman's jobs in the end.
  11. You could see even on the broadcast how angry Zimmer was at Flip. I'm sure there was an ultimatum this morning: either Zim or Flip was going to survive moving forward.
  12. DeFillipo fired
  13. Gritty got robbed.
  14. 10/2/2018 Minnesota Twins fire long time strength and conditioning coach. http://m.startribune.com/twins-fire-strength-and-conditioning-coach-perry-castellano/494969061/ End thread.
  15. LOL. This team.
  16. And that is your dagger.
  17. Rashod Hill again. I can already feel Kirk's confidence rising.
  18. The Seahawks are begging us to win this game
  19. Their WR couldn't catch that if he was 10 feet tall.
  20. My god... DeFillipo was described as innovative. He's anything but innovative.
  21. Diggs was open
  22. Clubhouse culture. Talking about adding players that want to be here, instead of players who expected long term contracts and took their offer out of necessity to work like Lynn and Morrison.
  23. Gato's saying what the heck dad? Where's my treat? Similar to the look on Ronnie when I'm eating and he has to go to his bed away from the table.
  24. Weekly check ins are better than monthly for sure! My bad, my dog got distracted a few times on our walk tonight.
  25. Falvey is honored to be thought of as an analytical FO type, but thinks of himself as a people first executive. He fully believes in building an internal core first and supplement after. Judd and Mackey are buying into a potential 10 win swing just from Buxton/Sano/Kepler reaching their potential. Falvey doesn't believe in ceilings for scouting. Sano is working with the same guy who created his workout plan in Ft. Myers this winter. His workouts are being recorded and sent back to the HQ in Minneapolis. Sano also has to check into Ft. Myers facility every month or so to make sure he's on pace. Re: short term contracts. He thinks Schoop is in an entirely different situation than Lynn/Morrison who were more or less resentful last off-season to not get a long term deal. Team quality is more important than payroll numbers.
