    Well, you weren’t the only one … I was someone advocating to trade him after 2019 for pitching … thought it would be a ‘sell high’ deal … glad I’m not in charge

    Maybe the AL Central is more of a powerhouse than people realize!

    A 5, 6, 7 haiku?
  4. Squirrel
    I haven’t seen haikus in the game threads for a while … the recaps, though, there were plenty attempts the other day
  5. Squirrel
    Okay, I equate it to the banter not related to firing anyone … lol

    Maybe they’d be interesting to a non-Twins fan audience, but all their stories and commentary were just down the line of ‘Google Minnesota Twins recent news’ and all they said the home audience already knew. On top of that, that interview of Buxton … ‘I have to bat now’ and they didn’t seem to know quite what to do. Like what’s he going to do? Continue answering questions while he’s standing in the warm up circle and in the better’s box, because that was their allotted time to talk to him? Was kind of weird.

    What I equated it to was if the game thread were micced and live …

    1. Of course the Twins can beat the Yankees. If we face them in the playoffs, will we? I’d say the possibility is better than in other years. But it was good, really good, to see the Twins offense take down some really good pitching in both the Jays and Yanks series. That was definitely very encouraging to see. Very. 2. I wish TD would quit perpetuating the idea that Donaldson is to blame for last year. We won in 2020 with him. The roster this year is very different. While the chemistry this year is great, maybe it’s not because of who is gone from last year, but who is here this year. Correa. It’s not Donaldson being gone that is the difference but I think that Correa being here is, But the Twins did pretty well the latter half of the season, so who was gone off the team then? By the same logic, maybe the problem was Cruz? (Definitely not serious, but it has the same logic.) Some players just mix, some don’t. It just is and I think blaming Donaldson is kind of, well, petty. None of the players have ever hinted that he was the cause of problems or that there was even friction, Sometimes personalities just don’t mix and it is what it is without having to pin all the blame on one person. 3. Attendance. Yankees always draw … in every stadium across the country. Last night it showed the Rays do not. But I do expect attendance to go up throughout the summer now that better weather is here and if the Twins can remain in first! ?

    And it’s just as speculative what you are saying, too. Injuries happen. Period. It’s extremely unfortunate, mostly for Royce, but it’s just as speculative to say he wouldn’t have been injured if he weren’t out there. Injuries happen. And no, he was not necessarily our future SS. I don’t agree that he would necessarily remained a SS for the reason you stated … it’s one of the most important defensive position. In equally short sample sizes, it was noticeable that Palacios was better at the position, and that Correa is better than both.

    I think we were all watching it on AppleTV … that was the only place to watch

    Crunchy? They were weird … no real flavor
  12. Squirrel
    I’m actually usually pretty quiet during games
  13. Squirrel
    As I said earlier … I think it’s what it would sound like if they gave all of us mics and the game thread was the pbp
  14. Squirrel
    Have you ever tried them? I tried chicken beaks once
  15. Squirrel
    Lol, my mom removed her hearing aids for the last two innings so she didn’t have to listen to the pbp announcers
  16. Squirrel
    You need to hang out on Twitter
  17. Squirrel
    When I played summer softball, we always used vanilla extract
  18. Squirrel
    It would be ‘if a game thread were the bpb’ … with all the stories and comments
  19. Squirrel
    Yeah, I don’t get that … that’s plain and simple … the shift didn’t work, haha!
  20. Squirrel
    We got it going, thanks!
  21. Squirrel
    Isn’t he like one of the fastest on the team?
  22. Squirrel
    Bottom 5th, 3-1 Twins, 1 on, 1 out … okay make that 4-1 now
  23. Squirrel
    Yay!
  24. Squirrel
    My mom is not liking all the non-game chatter from the broadcast … I have to agree
  25. Squirrel
    Let’s just see how it plays out for a few more innings ?
