    “Management malpractice” may be this year’s “total system breakdown “. If the Twins could turn a double play the way this writer turns a phrase, they would not be headed to last place

    I was dreaming that our GM called the Cinncy GM during the recent series and offered Larnach (and someone else/cash) to the Reds for Spencer Steer. Twins could use a right handed 1B/OF and the Reds need a left handed bat. Oh well it was just a dream. Now I’m dreaming that Keaschall moves to 1B, Lee to 2B and Kreidler to SS to improve the defense. A guy can dream can’t he?

    I saw almost no signs of life from his bat, which is especially concerning given how hyped up he was about Shelton as manager. Lewis is a very fragile player mentally so when he’s happy and not producing, that signals big problems.

    The Whiteys spent some money this year on moves the Twins could have made-Dominguez, Hayes, Murakami (sp?)-while it’s hard to see where the Twins improved at all. Remember the Sox outplayed the Twins after the fire sale. When one organization is trying to improve and the other isn’t, don’t be surprised when Chicago finishes ahead of the Twins and there’s another fire sale in Minneapolis.

    When you consider the several up and down seasons under Falvey, you realize he was just an average baseball executive. That may be better than what comes next, but who knows? In the meantime, good-bye and good luck.

    Articles like this make no sense and add nothing to the conversation. The team is about as likely to sign Valdez as it is to trade for Ohtani. Do better.
  28. palmspringstwinsfan
    The next move is adding back Fitzgerald and getting rid of Vidal.

    Twins can’t be that good at developing players-4th place 2 years in a row in baseball’s weakest division.

    The Pohlads are just bad business people-simple as that. The old man made a fortune as a vulture but the family has shown no acumen since then. $44m invested in the S&P in 1984 , with dividends reinvested, would be worth more than $4 billion today. If you can’t beat that running private businesses, including a baseball monolopy in an affluent market, you should get out of business and just be a passive investor.

    This was well done but it would be even funnier if it weren’t so close to true
  32. palmspringstwinsfan
    I want to salute all the loyal, diehard Twins fans who wrote in about this extremely low wattage move. It’s obvious they care more about the team than Falvey and Pohlad do. I wonder sometimes if Falvey makes these moves just to pull the fans’ chains.
  33. palmspringstwinsfan
    Based on these moves, I’d suggest the Twins are a last place team unless they add at least 3.0 WAR.

    More product placement than a James Bond movie. Nice work.

    I like Andujar in a platoon with Clemens but my preference at 1st is to trade for Jonathon Long of the Cubs who’s blocked by Michael Busch. Maybe Mick Abel or SWR could bring him over.
