    Right now I trust Nick Gordon more on the mound.

    Oh I needed a good laugh, and will be visualizing "what could have been" during the Twins next broadcast.

    Nice to know that the relief well is far from dry.

    Not sure what Johnson was making as Twins pitching coach, but according to LSU website TigerBait, he could make $750,000 as their pitching coach. https://tigerbait.com/s/4215/wes-johnson-to-join-jay-johnsons-lsu-baseball-staff

    Kepler currently has a lifetime BA of .234...the same as Miguel Sano. More context.

    Does anyone else who is old enough to remember Les Nessman from the TV show WKRP think of Chi Chi's first name with a long i?
  8. nclahammer
    The increase in walks is an improvement, but a .243 BA with just 6 HRs? I expected much more than this from Kepler.

    What a terrific read, and great thinking outside the box content. Every pair of eyes at Target Field offers its own perspective. Reminds me of when Leroy Neiman painted Harmon Killebrew on the David Letterman show dedicted to Harmon.

    The best part of waking up, Twins Daily, the Minor League Report, and my coffee (with French vanilla creamer), cheers!

    Coffee coming out my nose funny.

    And just like that, i'm all caught up with what's happening on the farm. Thank you Twins Daily.

    Urshela introduces the Stop, Drop & Roll, and Throw.

    You are right though in that "You probably think this song is about you", but in a good way.

    Stats aside, through the eye test I see growth in Larnach with more of his swings going to left-center and centerfield, I would like to see Max Kepler do that with more frequency too (he had a hit there on Saturday I believe.)

    Cue the Carly Simon because when it comes to covering the Minnesota Twins minor leagues, "Nobody does it Better" than Twins Daily.

    Excellent scouting report on Target Field, heading to my first game of the season on Friday, April 22, against our old nemesis, the White Sox.
  18. nclahammer
    What a cool (sometimes literally) Minnesota Twins tradition, keep up the excellent reporting.
  19. nclahammer
    It feels so good to have the full Minnesota Twins minor league report back, like extra French vanilla creamer in my coffee...so sweeeeet.

    Our annual baseball road trip will be taking us to Wichita this summer, can't wait to see these kids play, and check out our AA affiliate.

    The 40/40/400 club? It's got a nice ring to it.
  22. nclahammer
    Going back to my DJ days and I cue up "Rose Colored Glasses" by John Conlee. I believe.
  23. nclahammer
    I'm with you, my glass is "half-full" too.

    As a teacher, you mark down the grade that the student earned in your grade book, based how much they were able to show they learned about the subject/standard you were teaching. That's what makes this so tough to grade. We will not see the final results that the signings/trades "earned" until the season is over. The best we can do at this moment is speculate. I think Ted's B+ speculation is on the optomistic side (great summary by the way), but not far off from what the final grade "earned" will be. I'm going with a slightly more conservative grade of B. Go Twins!

    I find myself "emboldened" going into the 2022 season. I am emboldened by the signing of Carlos Correa, and the way the front office pulled it off, especially outmaneuvering the dreaded NY Yankees in the process. I'm emboldened that Miguel Sano will make a new 40/40 club popular to Twins fans - the 40 HR & .240 batting average club - I think we'd be satisfied with that from him. I am embolded that not one, but multiple young pitching arms will step up and contribute substantially this season - Joe Ryan, Josh Winder, Bailey Ober, just to name a few (there are more waiting in the wings - Duran, Balazovich, Woods-Richardson.) I'm emboldened that Alex Kirilloff will become the Minnesota Twins version of "Kirill the Thrill" (of MN Wild fame) and offer up weekly highlights as he plays his way towards 500+ ABs, a .300 BA, and 20+ HRs. I am emboldened that "intrigued" above inspired me to dream, ask "What if?", and write these comments.
