    The American dream, baby. Nice feel good story.

    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.
  3. theBOMisthebomb
    Another reason the WBC is a farce.
  4. theBOMisthebomb
    Keep your eyes on the road and your hands upon the wheel. Go Twins!
  5. theBOMisthebomb
    From a guy who remembers 1987, enjoy the moment. 5-1 is 5-1.
  6. theBOMisthebomb
    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.

    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.

    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

    I know he was roughed up and the spring training numbers were awful... still why not give Chargois a shot?
  10. theBOMisthebomb
    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.
  11. theBOMisthebomb
    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.
  12. theBOMisthebomb
    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.
  13. theBOMisthebomb
    The strikeouts from Sano are unsettling.
  14. theBOMisthebomb
    This is a good report and clearly we have an abundance of talent competing for the starting rotation. Honestly though, why couldn't these guys and Berrios creep into the competition for the 4th rotation spot?
  15. theBOMisthebomb
    Kintzler (or Perkins if he returns) is not the future. Shaggy should at least get some chances to close right away in 2017, if not be given the job outright.
  16. theBOMisthebomb
    Good stuff, it reminded that I was at the 1991 six hit Kirby Puckett game.
  17. theBOMisthebomb
    That would e a real shame if Santana misses his opening day start because of the WBC. Do the Twins have any influence on when he pitches during the WBC?
  18. theBOMisthebomb
    It's cool to be able to quantify the pitch 'framing' aspect of the game. Has anyone gone back and did a thorough analysis of previous generations of catchers and how their pitch framing lined up with their defensive reputation?
  19. theBOMisthebomb
    Alright, I will drink the Kool - aid wearing my Twins colored glasses while basking in the spring training sunshine. My big concern is the bullpen and the lack of viable options. I see Kintzler having a Jepsen-like regression this season.
  20. theBOMisthebomb
    Why do we have to move to make MLB more like slow pitch softball? The game is fine the way it is. I can live with the clock I suppose, the tweaks that alter strategy (#s2,3,6,7) I stand up and say no. Eliminate replay altogether.
  21. theBOMisthebomb
    at least you were able to enjoy a nice Florida night. This debacle was brutal on television.
  22. theBOMisthebomb
    Yeah, I was one of those 10,000 left out in the cold in 2016. It sucked righteously.
  23. theBOMisthebomb
    Man, I am so glad the Tigers have Pelfrey and the Twins don't.
  24. theBOMisthebomb
    How do you know the opening day sweatshirts won't be as thick as before? I actually hope you are correct, just curious how you would know other than looking at the picture. At the 2016 opener I was stuck behind the BLM protesters so missed half of the game and didn't get my sweatshirt.

    My brother and I went to the Saturday night game against Hawaii. The Gophers bats were anemic. US Bank Stadium is a gorgeous and stunning venue. . for football. This place turns into a dump for baseball, what an abomination. The Dome was far superior for baseball, US Bank is a cheap copy. It was still a fun atmosphere.
