    I very much look forwad to watching Miguel hit some angry homeruns. Power banana!

    I'm confused who is actually on the bench for your 25-man roster. If you're making a prediction, at least tell me exactly what you're predicting, then tell me the guys who just miss. I'm even less clear who you think will be starting and or in the pen. I think I counted like 30+ names in total. Please help! I like the following: Starters: Suzuki Mauer Dozier Santana Plouffe Arcia Hicks Hunter Bench: Pinto, Schafer, Escobar, Fryer Rotation: Hughes Nolasco Santana Gibson May Bullpen: Pelfrey Fein Perkins Meyer Duensing Pressley Tonkin Achter

    I can't wait to take a road trip down to see Douggie Baseball and all of the Twins uber prospects in one place. This spring cannot come soon enough.

Deal with it. Regular beer, baseball, and the news. Cody and Eric and Paul and no Jay (because of his grooming habits). Thanks for listening and enjoy our show.

    I agree with Seth here. If Graham is healthy, but unable to stick in the Twins pen and they have to send him back to ATL, I don't see any reason for ATL to make a deal with the Twins. If he's healthy, he's a prospect, if he's not, then no reason for Twins to keep him around.

The guys were joined by TwinsDaily's Jeremy Nygaard to talk about who JR Graham is, and what the Twins lost in Sean Gilmartin and Matt Tomshaw (THE THING!).

With all hands on deck the gentlemen discuss the Torii Hunter signing and try to figure out if the press conference to announce the move was newsworthy in and of itself. We also review the Twins decision to offer arbitration with all of their arbitration eligible players, and some other Twins news tidbits before we are joined by Seth Stohs (@SethTweets) from Twins Daily to discuss his upcoming book, the Minnesota Twins Prospect Handbook. Due to some technical difficulties and the time constraints of the hosts, we had to cut the show short. Be sure to tune in next week to hear us continue our reviewing the roster series when we discuss Kyle Gibson, Danny (Dan) Santana. Thanks for listening and enjoy our show.

It's just Jay (The master of underscores) and Paul this week, and they both started the podcast a couple of beers in trying to shake the remnants of a Thanksgiving Hangover. A little hair of the dog. Or just a good excuse to drink beers and talk baseball. Thanks for listening and enjoy our show.

Why? You must not have received the invite either. While the Pleiss twins frolic around the Pacific northwest in a celebratory stupor, Cody and Jay navigate through a gauntlet of hot stove chatter, 2015 speculation, free agent courtships and all in all manage just fine without the twins.

    "And what the data says is that Hunter is not able to catch everything an average right fielder is able to. This notion could leave the pitching staff frustrated in 2015." What's the OF defense look like on opening day? Arcia-Hicks-Hunter? Throw Schafer in there somewhere? I don't see how this improves the ballclub. And thank you, Parker, for not joining the "Torii will be a great mentor/great clubouse guy" bandwagon. For this alone, i love you.
  14. Paul Pleiss
    I'd be more intersted in the Twins acquiring Cueto and Phillips for Dozier and a prospect than bringing in Bruce for Dozier. And now we have Torii, again. Hooray. (snark)
  15. Paul Pleiss
    The next person who talks about how Torii will be such a great mentor to the younger players gets a shiv to the liver.
  16. Paul Pleiss
    I can't wait to hear about what a great clubhouse guy Torii is, and how he's going to be a great mentor to the young guys. Gag me with a spoon. I quit.

We also talk about Paul Molitor's coaching staff, and what we think about Gene Glynn at third base and Rudy Hernandez as the assistant hitting coach. Of course our hosts are drinking beer, and they spend the last segment on the podcast discussing Mike Trout and Clayton Kershaw winning the AL and NL MVP awards. We even wonder who would win the MLB MVP award if we had to combine things all into one. Thanks for listening and enjoy our show.

    This week the boys discuss Paul Molitor and what his hiring means for the future of the Minnesota Twins. We're also joined by Bill Parker (@Bill_TPA) to talk about the Twins' roster and some potential free agent targets to help fill in the 2015 roster. http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-8ScOJYni4TI/VFzXExBLNGI/AAAAAAAAJeQ/HqEnwKeRYjE/s1600/molly2.jpg As always, we chat about beer, baseball, and the news. I forgot to ask Bill on air what he was drinking, be he assures me it was a Lagunitas Little Sumpin' Sumpin', so there's that! Thanks for listening and enjoy the show.

    A ballad from Terry Ryan to Paul Molitor: "Don't cry for me Paul Molitor The truth is I never left you All through my wild days My mad existence I kept my promise Don't keep your distance And as for fortune, and as for fame I never invited them in Though it seemed to the world they were all I desired They are illusions They are not the solutions they promised to be The answer was here all the time I love you and hope you love me"

    I've yet to make the journy down to Arizona for the fall league. Every year I think I should get my butt in gear and make it happen, and I keep putting it off. Thankfully SD is down there getting the scoops and giving us lazy cold weather birds some news from sunnier skies.
