  1. The Tepesch start was an abomination, trust me I abused myself and sat through the entire thing and still feel sick thinking about it.
  2. You might be able to remove Smalley from the record books, but he will always remain in our hearts ... and on our TVs boring us to death with his commentary. It will be nice to see a team not from the AL Central for a few days to keep things fresh.
  3. If you have a family then the Saints are a better option. There are things for the children to see and do at CHS - Target Field there is not really anything family friendly. Yes, I wish both Target Field and CHS would sell out ever night. I just cannot blame families and casual fans for choosing CHS. My children don't care if Miguel Sano is batting or the retread AAAA former Twin that the Saints just signed.
  4. CHS stands for Cenex Harvest States. They are a Fortune 100 company that endorses the stadium. I think Cenex and Harvest States merged about 15 years ago. It's a great stadium, the next time you are in Minneapolis for a Twins game try to catch a Saints game at CHS.
  5. It should another fun season at CHS Field and the Saints are definitely a favorite for the AA championship. The roster changes are important in this league. Sometimes successful AA players catch on with a big league organization - great for the player, tough break for the organization. The Saints are really all about the fun - as a fan you should not get too focused on outcome for this league.
  6. Keep giving him chances for now. He needs to adjust as the league has adjusted to him. Three poor pitches with bad results is significant.
  7. It says a lot that even a Twins sycophant like Bert Blyleven would criticize Joe for his refusal to adjust his game to beat the shift. Decrease Joe's playing time or bench him and plug Vargas at first base full time.
  8. Let's enjoy the ride and the good times.
  9. Time to get your meds adjusted. The Twins are over .500, the sun is shining, and Jesus loves you. The rest is just life happening like it always has.
  10. Go Twins. Remember those Twins - A's rivalries of the late 80s - early 90s? Geez those were fun regular season games.
  11. I would still like to see Park get a sustained shot at becoming an everyday MLB player. There is too much potential there not to roll the dice.
  12. While I agree with you, I feel we need to give Falvey - Levine more time. At least another year or more before the criticism becomes valid. The first six months of their regime has disappointed me though they were dealt a short hand.
  13. The beauty of an MLB season is the 162 games. I want to party like it's 1999 after this 6-3 start... let's remember it is a long season.
  14. Keep your eyes on the road and your hands upon the wheel. Go Twins!
  15. From a guy who remembers 1987, enjoy the moment. 5-1 is 5-1.
  16. Bring back the Metrodome is my only thought as I prepare to dodge raindrops at Target Field today. A record of 75-87 is my prediction for 2017.
  17. Hope springs eternal and there is a new season upon us and the Twins are undefeated. While the lack of offseason moves and roster construction by the front office has been baffling, I am willing to be patient for now and give them a chance. With the young talent the Twins (hopefully) have the future feels bright for the first time in a long time.
  18. Good point. I thought the Twins were going to sit ol' Joe a few times a week to get his games played down to about 120. How is that going to happen without another first baseman on the roster? Mlb.com actually lists Gimenez as backup 1B?!?! http://minnesota.twins.mlb.com/team/depth_chart/?c_id=min
  19. I know he was roughed up and the spring training numbers were awful... still why not give Chargois a shot?
  20. The proof will be in the pudding. It has been difficult to be patient with Falvey- Levine as they have looked nearly the same as the Terry Ryan regime. We need to give the new guys at least 2-3 years before we start making judgments.
  21. It's in the Minnesota sports culture to fret too much over losing borderline players (see Oswlado Arcia). The Twins were burned by David Ortiz so now the fans are paralyzed with fear it will happen again. The Twins lost 103 games last year, roster fluidity should be encouraged.
  22. This is disappointing as I was hoping that Shaggy could slide into the closer's role by midsummer. How much was the demotion influenced by his spring training numbers being down? The importance of spring training numbers has always been mysterious.
  23. The strikeouts from Sano are unsettling.
