  1. At the age of around 30 having played fastpitch softball since high school, I took a rise ball in the face one night while guarding the dish with two outs, runners on, and a 3-2 count. I was never the same after that, washed up, and heading for the bench after anything thrown inside or even remotely at my head. 'course, I'd never been better than a .250 hitter in anybody's league before that and had been playing ball since fifth grade.
  2. I've been watching baseball since the '40s and I've never seen a better play.
  3. I'm all for Sonny, tune in just to watch him pitch.
  4. The Twins have done fine without him, Taylor and Castro in particular. It is painful to watch Buxton bat.
  5. Very disappointing. Also very typical. Regardless of whatever "upside" may fleetingly occur, this team cannot be taken seriously
  6. The comparison with Mickey Mantle does Buxton no favors.
  7. Money no object, but this o Money no object, but this one's got it.
  8. I regretted the trade when it was made and continue to regret it now. It's hard to root for the Twins.
  9. Good on ya, Luis. It's a pleasure watching you play.
  10. I"ve been following this team for 20 years, and essentially it's the same old story. I'm tired of it.
  11. I'm for Urshela, have said so before. Impressed with the way Bunny hangs in there, too.
  12. On the whole of it, I wouldn't mind having Urshela on my ball club.
  13. I believe I have expressed the same sentiments recently. Were I to go back over the years, I may well have said the same things before. It is these Twins' legacy.
  14. I admire Archer for hanging in there, and I like the way he goes about his business.
  15. Is this question rhetorical or merely a joke? When in their history have the Twins had too much starting pitching? When was it last when they had four starters who were consistent and capable, let along a couple more who in a pinch they could pop in to fill a hole?
