  1. Heh, that’s way better than me almost referring to him as JLo
  2. It’s known in these parts that Chief walked with the dinosaurs
  3. Yeah, very happy about him so far this year
  4. Beware … the head is likely to be in your bed
  5. Hey, if Chief can, we all should be able to
  6. I suppose an Easter cake is pastry … yes?
  7. Sobering thought, but so true
  8. Wallner has that arm, so probably right
  9. Life is good either way … it’s just a game. No more bugged by that than getting sent to jail in Monopoly 🙂
  10. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2023/04/twins-place-max-kepler-on-10-day-injured-list.html
  11. All right … and Wallner up
  12. This is what bugs me. Not that injuries occur, because they do, but put Kep on the IL already and get Wallner here
  13. I’d say there were a few, but not many, given the starting staff, their injury concerns, their records. A lot of context missing from that.
  14. As I always like to remind myself … it’s just a game. Yes, one I enjoy, one I like to understand in all its minutiae, and one I want my team to win, but in the end, I just can’t carry the grudges and angst some seem to, finger pointing and complaining even in wins, almost gloating in losses. In the vein of ‘it’s a marathon’, manage expectations is also a good philosophy: hope for the best, prepare for the worst, be happy for the wins, shrug off the losses - in the end, it’s just a game and not the meaning of life. Thanks for the article for a healthy dose of perspective that is often lost on these boards.
  15. The Twins win and some ‘fans’ here complain. They lose, same ones complain. Good things happen, complain. I think there is a pattern here

      I’m sorry I complain so much. No one listens to me at home

      Interesting take. Do you watch the actual games?

      Yes, I do. Most of them. I'm out of market, but I have the mlb.tv package

  16. Home opener! Yay! Go Twins!
  17. You know … I don’t feel sorry for you one iota. You can afford to buy tickets and parking and have a good job that affords you flexibility to switch things up. So why all the whining? Honestly, whine some more. When you buy tickets, this is the risk, it always has been. Pretty sure there are disclaimers all over the place that spell this out. It’s Minnesota in April. How many home openers in the past 10 yrs have been moved or cancelled? How many for every team out there? It happens. It’s part of the risk when you buy a ticket. 10-15 degrees is a lot this time of year, for those sitting there for a couple hours and for the players on the field. It was the right decision and the Twins made it in a timely manner so those who could rearrange things had time to do so.
  18. Is this Twitter?
  19. Saying it could jinx it … don’t you know anything about superstitions and baseball???????
  20. He’s only at 88 pitches. I’d let him at least start the 8th. But that’s me
  21. AAAAARRRRRRGGGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!!
