Did you notice what the machine was set up for so what he was working on? When my bro and I were watching him it was sliders away

Blame the alphabet

Boo!

If you are going to the opening day Twins Daily gathering, post your photos here, connect us to the live action!

Opening day! Yay! If you ask me, those are the two most exciting words behind the four most exciting words of ‘pitchers and catchers report’. And it seems like forever between the two, but here we are, and I’m getting this party started early. Are you ready? Let the fun and games begin! Go Twins! Lineups will be posted when available … what’s your guess?

In the last game, it is very common that the regular exit early.

No matter when you go it’s something different. I kind of like the week before games begin, starting with the first official team practice. But as things are more organized on the backfields, with games beginning back there, that’s also great. Wandering from one end to the other. Going to a game or two in the stadium is great, but spending time there on a non-game day is really the best. Ive gone to ST every year since 2001, missing only 2021.

This is kind of like time Dewey defeated Truman

Nope. Gotta write something for the clicks.

You aren’t quite in in-season form yet … you need to go back to ‘learning what a jinx is and how not to make one 101’ 🙂

🙄 Whatever. If they like it, and it keeps them loose, and their camaraderie strong, I couldn’t care less. But likely they will come up with something new this year.

What happened to Alcala?

Hope this click will be the start for him, just in time to start the season

Episode 3 …

Hey, more games than that. Lots of games in the summer as that’s where the Mussels play

Here in Fort Myers, Florida, lots of rain and heavy rain and some thunder/lightning action mixed in

As I said, all suspicious. MLB will investigate and we will see the outcome.

Rose gambled on baseball while he was a player/manager. That is prohibited. I don’t think Ohtani’s interpreter gambled on baseball, but who knows? And was it Ohtani who actually was the one gambling? It all seems suspicious, but hopefully MLB will do a thorough investigation. For the record, here is the MLB rule regarding gambling. If I’m reading it incorrectly, unless he was gambling on baseball or gambling illegally, it’s not against the rules. We will see what the investigation turns up. (d) GAMBLING. (1) Any player, umpire, or Club or League official or employee, who shall bet any sum whatsoever upon any baseball game in connection with which the bettor has no duty to perform, shall be declared ineligible for one year. (2) Any player, umpire, or Club or League official or employee, who shall bet any sum whatsoever upon any baseball game in connection with which the bettor has a duty to perform, shall be declared permanently ineligible. (3) Any player, umpire, or Club or League official or employee who places bets with illegal book makers, or agents for illegal book makers, shall be subject to such penalty as the Commissioner deems appropriate in light of the facts and circumstances of the conduct. Any player, umpire, or Club or League official or employee who operates or works for an illegal bookmaking business shall be subject to a minimum of a one-year suspension by the Commissioner. For purposes of this provision, an illegal bookmaker is an individual who accepts, places or handles wagers on sporting events from members of the public as part of a gaming operation that is unlawful in the jurisdiction in which the bets are accepted.

I may check out the game tomorrow, that would be my last chance. I don’t have tickets for Friday and Saturday my Mom and I have other plans, then it’s back north on Sunday. I’ve seen quite a bit, though, in my time here, so I’m happily sated. 🙂

So? He understands what ST is for

Ted, are the games starting at 1 in the back?

Varland will be our 5th starter … who is our depth past that? Clevenger won’t be better than Varland, imo. If he wants to be minor league depth and pitch in AAA just in case, maybe.

Why you can never have enough pitching. Also emphasizing how last year’s relative health played into the Twins success.

No, I thought there was indication he was coming along soon. Certainly not 60-day unless you’ve heard something new?

Well, crap …
