  1. Kelly’s gotta retire before his brain becomes too scrambled
  2. These OL injuries are getting out of hand. Not gonna win a lot of games with Brandel at LG, Jurgens at C, and Skule at T.
  3. Won't be able to watch much of this game. Travel day tomorrow. I am a little concerned about a Rodgers spite game but not enough to predict a loss. Mason will eat again on the ground. Hope that Darrisaw plays the whole game, and the defense shows up.
  4. What future? He needs to be fired along with Falvey next week.
  5. Braves claimed him, meaning the Twins passed on him because? Money?
  6. Hey! The website is back! Joe Ryan has looked pretty good per usual.
  7. Since there is a good chance this is Joe Ryan’s final start in a Twins uniform I’ll tune in for a bit tonight.
  8. Very well could be. He's got the yips catching a football like I do chipping a golf ball near the green. It's not gonna work
  9. Darnold playing his game that he learned in KOC rehab school. Just sitting back and shredding this Cardinals defense.
  10. Marvin Harrison Jr having a big time sophomore slump to go along with a disappointing rookie season.
  11. The Cardinals are consistently that team that exists in the NFL ecosystem. Almost never relevant, but never terrible enough to be in the Browns, Jets, and Raiders tier of bottom feeding NFL teams.
  12. Maybe old friend Sam Darnold is just a top 10 QB now?
  13. Correct. Falvey has only paid up for 1 reliever in 9 years of FA history. Addison Reed flopped and that was it. The bullpen will be filled out with rule 5, waiver wire, and MiLB options.
  14. How did you type your first sentence, then the 2nd sentence? And not make the connection? That is literally the argument. He refused to play 2B after 1 game then went on record about that experience. He's young and inexperienced enough to contribute wherever the opportunity is on the field.
  15. It does make sense if you want to keep the human element in the game, which I do. It creates buzz to talk about and that's sports in a nutshell... entertainment.
  16. We're on opposite sides of the spectrum here. I love the new strategy it brings to the game. The NFL has made billions on subjective ref calls and 2 challenges per game. Umpires already get 90% of the calls correct in a typical game. This gives teams a chance to influence the 10% of questionable calls.
  17. Imagine the sample size if he was called up in August. Could be close to double the number of appearances. Instead of giving it to the worst pitcher in 120 years Noah Davis.
  18. For 1 game Doc. What would you say if Kody Clemens publicly said he doesn't want to blow a game playing 2B for the team? Or Brooks Lee. Hell, even Ryan Fitzgerald. You'd hope they are a team player right?
  19. A crazy thought is he plays where the team needs him the most at that time. It's not like it was a permanent move to 2B. They just needed someone better than Julien at 2B.
  20. When did we ever have really good second basemen - plenty according to him - in recent years? Also, let's call a spade a spade. He refused to play an IF position during a time when the team really needed someone to play over there to try and save the season.
  21. My No Brainers are Jeffers, Ryan, Sands, and Lewis. We're not going to give up on Lewis at this stage in his career. On the bubble: Ober - Completely dependent on if they think a procedure or simply rest will help him gain back the 2-3 MPH in velocity he lost this year. If he can't get back to 92-93 MPH then he's not worth $6-7 million. Non-tenders: Hatch, Tonkin, Misiewicz, Larnach
  22. Way to end on a high note! He's certainly in the mix for back half of the rotation in 2026.
  23. 2 option years remaining. He made $2 million this year and will likely sign for a similar number for 2026. Controllable through 2027. We have nothing to lose claiming him in case if his arm isn't broken beyond repair. Without knowing his medical records I say do it.
  24. Someone the Twins should claim in the off chance he's not cooked. Fits the budget $2 million, controllable through 2027, with 2 option years remaining.
