  1. I hate talking about trading him. I really do. But there's next to 0 chance the Twins are offering him the most money to lock him in during his 30s.
  2. We lost so much time in his 20's it's a shame... I do think he's going to be more healthy throughout his 30's than his 20's.
  3. I can't name a new song he's performed to in 20 years... So playing a concert with this type of audience makes sense. The only Ludacris story I have... When I was living in Austin, TX in 2013, he did an impromptu concert during the Austin City Limits festival at an arcade bar downtown. That was awesome.
  4. Took a great throw to get Buck out at 3rd, but still... A little too aggressive.
  5. Haven't kept up with the Northwoods league in many years now... Back in my day (takes out dentures), Curtis Granderson was the major success story playing for the Mankato Mashers/Moon Dogs.
  6. In my life watching baseball I have definitely seen more minor league ball than anything. I worked in the Northwoods League during college. The players in that league played college, but got their first summer experience with wood bats.
  7. Tied up in that matchup 1-1 Twins vs. Team USA. If it's not the Twins winning we've got some real problems.
  8. The US is up 1-0 against Paraguay in the world cup so that's cool?
  9. Rain delay likely on the way. Just got home and the wind is blowing like crazy with heavy rain. Windows are closed now
  10. If there’s any west direction of that rain I will be entering my house with wet floors. Had my windows open all day
  11. If this is the beginning of Joe Ryan’s patented 2nd half slide, then let’s make a trade happen sooner than later.
  12. Would be pretty cool if a team like the Twins had a SS in St Paul that was doing well to call up
  13. Hate to break the news but rain is on the way again
  14. I was hoping for Joe Ryan Experience tomorrow when me and the family are going, but Prielipp is a nice consolation prize. Also, fingers crossed they actually call up Kaelen Culpepper any day…
  15. Those “couple of relievers” are 2 of the top 5 relievers in all of baseball by fWAR with multiple years of control left.
  16. I didn't consider that... You're on to something there.
  17. Ah you're right. I misunderstood the FV overview... But clicking through other orgs on the link, the Twins have more than most in that 50 FV caliber.
  18. https://blogs.fangraphs.com/minnesota-twins-top-50-prospects/ Hot off the presses. Only 6 players with a 50 FV grade, and 2 are already in the majors (Priellipp and Rojas). Yikes...
  19. If Spotrac's details are correct, Buxton's full no trade clause decreases to a 5 team no trade list in 2027. Unless Buxton forces the issue in the next 2 months, I'm not trading him. We're not going to get anything close to a fair return if Atlanta knows Buxton only wants to be traded there this summer.
  20. It all starts at the top, and Tom P so far is showing he's even more incompetent than Joe P on the baseball side of things. Pressing the pause button on a rebuild already in motion, slashing the budget even further than last year, and simply stating we're going to be competitive... Yeah, anyone that's followed baseball for a little bit of time could have told Tom this was a terrible plan.
  21. There’s always a reason to wait, and never any urgency to get the dirty work done developing young players. There’s a reason why this team will miss the playoffs 5 out of the last 6 years. Biggest reason of all is holding back top prospects so they can pretend it’s a top farm system year after year.
  22. I wonder if Tom P thinks 72.5 wins set before the season is still ridiculous? Haven’t heard from him in a while…
