    I played mainly PC variants growing up, so I've gotta give a shout out to Tony LaRussa Baseball 3. This was (supposedly) the first game to have reactive commentators. It had a proto-fantasy draft option, first game to feature actual player photos, but the sneaky best part was you could play with the park factors. I would crank the altitude as high as possible and then try and bunt for a home run. MVP2005 was the GOAT even on PC, duh. Triple Play 2000 was a life changer for sure. Did anyone else ever unlock the secret team of developer characters? Pure chaos fun.

    Bold move to bring in someone who's career was cut short due to channelopathy to win the cold hearts of a fan base willing to deride a generational talent over bi-lateral leg weakness.

    Coming in very late to this apparently, so apologies if this is a dead horse by now, but.... Of course what Kinsler said was racist. Attitudes and statements don't have to be intentional, malicious, or even acknowledged for them to be racist. He said that the way American ballplayers were "brought up" was a superior behavior to that displayed by Puerto Rican and Dominican ballplayers. Did he need to say something like "Us white folk are more well-behaved than those Caribbean savages" for it to be racist? No! Context matters. Even if he left out calling out Puerto Rico and the Dominican Republic, the context of the statement is that as a representative of Team USA, he hopes that children don't form behavioral patterns based on The Other.

    The biggest surprise (and possibly best item) about this hire is that the Twins went and hired someone who was 8 years old the last time "championship-caliber" baseball was played here. Makes it feel like IRL "Little Big League."

    Man, I forgot that Epstein was at the helm when they made the Edwin Jackson signing. A great way to set the bar low, I suppose.

    I have owned three Twins jersey/shirsies in my life. The first two were Dustan Mohr and Oswaldo Arcia. I bought a Buxton one when he was first called up. Really hoping I can get good, prolonged and proficient use out of that third one!
