  1. I guess Roxy was the tipping point to getting this done ...
  2. Miranda is also (probably) a utility infielder, like Arraez. While he played at 3rd a bit more than other positions last year, he also played quite a bit at 2nd, and some at 1st with a sprinkling of SS and LF. Even Miranda himself has said 2nd base is the position he likes best. So, yes, he is the duplicate of Arraez. A different kind of hitter, but no real position. He is nowhere near a replacement for Donaldson's defense at 3rd.
  3. Haven’t we already learned something that it’s not already a done deal?
  4. That wasn’t your comment, though, and it didn’t relate at all to Seth’s article on who was/wasn’t added this year.
  5. Okay. That is what I was looking for. Thank you for elaborating
  6. To quote Seth ... Do you have something to say about who was added? Or not added who are Rule 5 eligible?
  7. I'm sorry, but this has absolutely nothing to do with the posted article. The article is about which minor leaguers were added to the 40-man
  8. Right now, I think Miranda would be a great trade chip. Before people jump all over me, I'm not suggesting we actively seek to trade him, but his stock is high right now and thrown in with someone else, maybe he'd bring something back worthwhile, like pitching. Further, in Seth's interview of Miranda, didn't he say his favorite position to play was 2nd base? So, to bank on him being our 3rd base of the future? I'd be wary, plus given what you've said here. It's why I don't want to trade Donaldson for nothing and don't want to trade him without a legitimate 3rd baseman in return or signed. Just because Miranda is in the wings doesn't mean Josh is even close to being expendable. Having Miranda in the wings might make Arraez expendable, but not Donaldson.
  9. Anytime anyone is interested in becoming a debate participant, please contact me! :)

  10. Check out the progress of Debate No. 2!!! And PM me if you are interested in participating!!! :) 

  11. I like when you ask what they like to do in their free time. in this interview, I liked hearing about being shut down this season with his shoulder and how he heard weekly from various Twins personnel to discuss his progress and how informed he was what they were doing with him and why, for the longevity of his career and how much he seemed to appreciate how invested they were in him, I liked hearing that he finished his degree. im not sure what else I’d want to know as you are pretty thorough on these. Maybe ask, ‘If you weren’t doing baseball what would you pursue career wise?’
  12. Heh, in my line of work, I more or less give the same advice. I work in a very specific field that is hard to get into and up the ladder, so when I speak to college students I tell them to get experience any way they can, even if they have to create it themselves. I also tell them what courses to take that would be specifically beneficial.
  13. Another great spotlight episode … and no mute issues! ?
  14. The first H2H debate is now live ... opening statements tonight, Poster A will submit a rebuttal post tomorrow, Poster B on Tuesday, Poster A again on Wednesday, Poster B on Thursday; then both will give a closing statement on Friday. Each of the posts will go live (approx) the same time each evening ... then on Saturday, we will open the debate up for voting. Hoping to get the next one started next week ... so ... if you are so inclined ... we await your PM saying you want a go at it
  15. If you can only watch one Twins Spotlight, watch Seth talk to Simeon Woods Richardson. That kid is AWESOME! He has all the makings of being my new favorite player! So enthusiastic about the game, about life, about the people around him ... big personality, in the best way

  16. Seth ... again with the mute? Are you doing that on purpose now as your 'schtick'? Wow ... what a great kid! So fun, enthusiastic, he's going to be a great team guy. And the personality to be my favorite player when he makes it.
  17. Lol ... 'Jack Morris everyone, we'll be back with Martha Stewart ..'
  18. I've been suggesting this for a couple years now. I think trading Arraez makes the most sense, both in making room for Miranda and for potential return value. But, like what mikelink45 said above, it depends on the return.
  19. Wow. He’s lucky that didn’t break his jaw. Glad he’s ok except for a few stitches
  20. As always, these things are among my favorite offerings at TD. Love hearing from these kids.
  21. I ❤️ Eddie, always will, and will always cheer him on. But I will still have a difficult time cheering on the Braves

  22. An uneventful Twins news week ...
