  1. Ok, how in the world does a negative WPA make the all star team??? Emmanuel Clase has a -.4 WPA someone should be stripped of voting rights.
  2. Clase instead of Duran is an absolute joke. If they are going to use outdated stats, then Ober should be in.
  3. You forgot Benj Sampson.
  4. What if 11 mil is market for a good reliever at this point?
  5. I’m ready to pivot too. I’ve been a diehard fan since 1987 (12 yrs old). I went to games in the late 90s where there were less than 10,000 people in the stands. We used to budget one family game a month - for affordability. Now it just isn’t worth it. The cost to experience ratio is way off and the Twins better start listening to their fans before it is too late. What is the financial level where they cannot afford to run Target Field anymore? So to the point, I just can’t take it anymore. I’d probably go with the Cardinals. They seem to try on a consistent basis.
  6. Can we just use the money lost out on Correa on: Giving big contracts to Guardian/Dodger/Ray scouting and development people Raising the pay scale of our minor leagues so that international players are more likely to sign with us (50,000 ones, not big ones) We are never going to play/pay with the big boys, so why not be creative on how we spend the money and not be used for emotional leverage again?
  7. Very true. However, this sort of thing cannot be normalized from the Twins perspective. If it were Philly or New York, umpires would be punished by the crowd and fans. There cannot be multiple sets of rules based on fan reaction - the MLB umpires need to pony up and say they messed up. Otherwise the silence emanating from them implies they had a ‘perfect’ game.
  8. Maybe the air conditioning In the umpires changing room should quit working until an apology from New York happens.
  9. I think that dooms our trading this year. With that high a price tag, the twins might bow out of all trade possibilities… if I were a seller, I’d hold out for something like what they gave up.
  10. Can anyone tell me the twins ERA after Wes Johnson left? And what is our record now since Sano came back?
  11. I guess agree to disagree. edit: to add context. 1991 would answer your question.
  12. Strong division. Not 4 games above 500. They did have at least 2 players that deserved to go and only 1 went.
  13. Totally understand - just quoting ‘experts’ when the twins were in 4th in a strong division.
  14. Toronto should not get any more reps. A 4th place team only should have minimal representation.
  15. What was Griffin Jax’s #s last year? Somewhat similar to sands. Not yelling at the computer because of analytics changes, just begging for a change from what has caused 4 of the last losses. We cannot keep doing the same thing and expecting the same result…that’s insanity.
  16. Solution. DFA Pagan and Cotton Sands and Winder fill reliever roles. Ober possibly when he gets back.
  17. New poster here. I agree with SD Buhr on all counts. It's a sad state of affair that the media can take it upon themselves to destroy someone. After all, these people are just human and not perfect. My only question I have is this: Where were all these people when Miguel Cabrera pulled his act? Did they condone it or ignore it because he had to play game 163? Either way they should reflect upon themselves before jumping on a bandwagon that has already passed numerous times.....
