    Would I like to see more Twins wins this month? Of course. Do I believe winning now = winning in the future? Not one bit. I was on a very bad high school baseball team. We got lucky in the playoffs by upsetting a team or two at the beginning before getting knocked out. We should have been tested and ready to make an improvement next season! Nope. We were still a very bad baseball team.

    Happy Tuesday! Hope you all enjoyed your Labor Day weekend. Today is National Coffee Ice Cream Day! This could really kill 2 birds with 1 stone this morning.. As you're all aware, ice cream is my weakness, and I need caffeine to survive this day.... Today is also National Read a Book Day! This is something that I certainly need to do more... Currently reading The Hike by Drew Magary.. What book(s) are you reading at the moment? Finally, on this day in 1522, after a 3 year, 42,000 mile journey around the world, nao Victoria returns to Spain. The captain informs them that the world is indeed not flat, and they were the first explorers to circumnavigate the globe!

    Congrats to Beresford. Hope he makes his impact, even if he plays sparingly.

    I'm sure we'll all be hearing "mishandled" a lot this offseason as more people break down what went wrong here. Glad that Buxton is finally putting together a good streak at the plate.

    I just downloaded this last night on a recommendation from a friend. It appears to be a real solid option for cable cutters out there. 3 different TV packages ranging from $30-45 a month. Month to month payments and can cancel anytime just like what you'd expect from Netflix/Hulu/etc. You can also add NFL Red Zone channel for a one time $40 fee. For cord cutters like me, it's worth checking out IMO.

    The way ESPN and others pumped up Hackenberg, I figured he had at least 1 good season. Doesn't appear to be the case. Take this as you want, Hackenberg's QB rating in college: 121. Leidner: 123. Similar completion percentage too. The NFL has such a shortage of good QBs it's not out of the realm of possibility that a team drafts Leidner within the first 2-3 rounds. Whoever does draft him, good luck. They're going to need it.

    Correct. Dozier can easily slide into a DH spot in the AL, or could usurp some other 2B in the NL based on the offensive value he provides. There's also going to be teams off of our radars who could make win now moves. A la San Diego 2 or 3 years ago, Arizona last year, etc.
  9. Vanimal46
    We're speaking in such absolutes on this thread. Do we know what Dozier's market is? Are we aware that teams don't think Dozier is an upgrade compared to what they already have?
  10. Vanimal46
    Only saw the box score this morning. Must have been really sloppy to only muster a 7 point victory over a 2-11 team last season. Sounds like Leidner still has a long ways to go in order for the passing game to be taken seriously. On a positive note, Rodney Smith! If he stays healthy, he's in store for a monster season.

    Shortly after your rap concert at the Minnesota Twins County Fair.

    By the way, thanks to Ash, I've been on a Cake kick all afternoon.... Forgot how great of a band they are. Anytime I play this song in the car, all of a sudden I'm driving 30 MPH over the speed limit. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cVfOWz7Z_5I

    This GIF is hitting way too close to home today. Who's recording me at work?
  14. Vanimal46
    10 pages! Good job team.

    In order to not sound silly at a bar, how do you pronounce that? eye-parita? i-pee-eh-rita?

    I guess that is the beauty of these sites, is that each one is run in an unique way, with different posters, styles and the like. I'm not aware of other Vikings blogs out there. I'd like for Vikings Journal to grow since it's so easy to click on the link on top of this page.

    I think he's trying to point out that Ricky Nolasco pitched a good game. Congrats to Nolasco.

    I understand you're doing your best to keep the site updated with content, along with maintaining other stuff on the site, AND your real life work/school stuff. I share the same concerns as Levi on Vikings Journal. IMO, the conversations need to breathe a bit more and let others chime in. It's difficult to follow a conversation between 2 posters when 7 twitter comments from people we may or may not care about are sandwiched in between. Maybe we're more used to the flow of Twins Daily. Where a person starts a thread, and let's the conversation flow from there. I'll still stop by and post my 2 cents from time to time, and understand you'll run the site how you want. But, like Levi, I think the Twitter comments can be too much.

    Are you using your patented recipe for the margaritas tonight?
  20. Vanimal46
    Yep. I will continue to beat the drum to trade both Dozier and Erv this off-season.
  21. Vanimal46
    True. That's too nice to call it a game lately. Until batting practice begins.
  22. Vanimal46
    Good pace on the thread today! Real good work. May be 10+ pages by game time.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qkj8tjW90CY It's still a thing! Nice! Went on this ride numerous times when our family went to Disney World.
  24. Vanimal46
    You and I could get along on a road trip if you're a fan of Cake!
  25. Vanimal46
    Is that ride still going on at DisneyWorld? That was one of my favourites
