    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.

    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.

    at least you were able to enjoy a nice Florida night. This debacle was brutal on television.

    Yeah, I was one of those 10,000 left out in the cold in 2016. It sucked righteously.

    Man, I am so glad the Tigers have Pelfrey and the Twins don't.

    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.

    I am also starting to get a sinking feeling in the pit of my stomach that Sano may become the biggest flop in Twins history. Man, do I hope I am wrong. The strikeouts are disgusting and not how the game should be played. My old school tendencies say that anyone who strikes out that much should be benched. I have felt he is lazy after 2016 and was excited as he appeared to have come to spring training this year in shape. Sano's career progression is a fascinating subplot to this Twins season. I really hope he pulls through and progresses and fulfills at least a large portion of his potential. If he flames out it will be disappointment #1 in Twins player development.

    Any little bit of improvement is what this franchise needs. The new guys sound like an upgrade overall from Bruno and Davis.

    I can sniff the end of the Mauer era. Hopefully they will at least explore the platoon option seriously and honestly.

    Murphy deserves another chance based on his offensive production with the Yankees.

    Us Bank Stadium is a rich man's stadium. It's disappointing they charge Vikings prices at Gophers baseball games.

    I am looking forward to watching a college baseball game in the new stadium. It should be an interesting dynamic with the huge palace hosting college baseball.

    I know bunting isn't cool in today's baseball world. For a guy like Buxton though, it seems like a smart play and a good way to jump start his offensive numbers at the start of his career. If his batting progresses over the next few years then use the bunt less.

    Watershed moment in life: realizing that a top 10 Twins Daily prospect is younger than your oldest child.

    The strikeouts on this team sicken me - Sano and Rosario need to get them under control if they are going to be key cogs in a winning Twins machine. Strikeouts are toxic regardless of what some advanced metrics state.

    Well done and nice job. Congrats on five years.

    The Twin Cities is a frontrunner and fair weather fan kind of town. This is a wealthy market saturated with both sports and non - sports entertainment options. Nice summer weekends are in short supply so if the Twins aren't 'good' you are going to lose a large fraction of the casual fans. You are asking people to scratch below the surface and research, which your typical Twin Cities sports fan is not going to do for a 103 loss team. We have all talked to the coworker this offseason who won't discuss the Twins in detail because they 'suck' - this is the same guy banging the drum and buying World Series tickets as everyone loves a winner. Most diehards aren't as tied to the result, they love the game or going to the ballpark or whatever. For me, 2016 was an enjoyable viewing season watching the young guys mature a bit. The 103 losses weren't fun, it was still the Twins and that's all that matters.

    The Twins are always interesting just as Jesus Christ and reading the scriptures is always interesting. There are no boring moments, only boring people.
  21. theBOMisthebomb
    Signing a FA bat soon would be a nice way to end a slow offseason.
  22. theBOMisthebomb
    With global warming changing winter here in the frozen tundra, why not move spring training to an exotic southern location such as Lakeville so the locals can enjoy it?
  23. theBOMisthebomb
    The search for a full-time closer as I don't feel Kintzler is the long term answer and Perk's career is essentially done.
  24. theBOMisthebomb
    Maybe Mean Joe Green will throw you his jersey after you hand him an ice cold Coke?
  25. theBOMisthebomb
    Let's give him 550+ PAs so we can know for certain.
