  1. This is a hard one. I think a lower base with incentives and/or games played contract hurdles is the only way a team can be financially responsible while providing the player with fair/good compensation. If Byron holds a grudge against the Twins for past treatment then maybe no contract can be done. Also, and this might be the Buxton camp's hope, never underestimate the possibility of some team over paying him with some ridiculous guaranteed contract, right Artie?
  2. Nice article, thanks Seth. Looking forward to Mr. Contreras getting the call.
  3. Falvey and Levine's job for the next week and a half:
  4. While Rocco walks around like the guy pulling the "Bring out your dead" cart, Met's manager Luis Rojas blows a cork in the Pirate's weird swinging dribbler turned into a 3-run infield single and Taijuan Walker error play and gets tossed in a lively manner. The key here is this: "Walker said Rojas' passionate defense helped the team get back into the game after a lackluster start. "He was fired up for, sure, and I think that got the whole team fired up, to have our backs,'' Walker said." Michael Conforto hit a 2 run homer in the 9th and Trevor May locked it down for the save and a Met's 7-6 comeback win.
  5. The 1962 Mets called to say hi.
  6. Yunior Severino heating up for Ft. Myers has 48 rbi on 46 hits. He's hit very well with runners on.
  7. For what it's worth, Happ's win-loss record now 5-4 and the team 8-8 in games he's started.
  8. "I’m not a fast runner. I’m a catcher." Classic.
  9. Jordan Gore making the transition to pitcher look like a great move.
  10. Toast. Everyone is toast. Dr. Evil returned to 2021 from the future and sucked the mojo out of the Twins, there is no hope.
  11. Yes, how different would this team look? I thought Minky was going to be the next Twins manager until, well, you know. Love me some Jim Kaat in the booth though. Still one of my favorite people and baseball man with a mic.
  12. Now if we could just do it.
  13. I think the most common out come for the Twins this year with runners in scoring position and one out = the strikeout. No runners get moved and now there are two outs. Rally killers.
  14. Yeah, I think we should just sign guys who are going to play well. ?
  15. Falvey and Levine get a temporary pass due to the shutdown; makes it really hard to evaluate players when they aren't playing. Rocco . . . not so much.
  16. Killebrew (62-64), then Jacque Jones (2000-03), then Bob Allison (65-69). Honorable mention to Danny Gladden and Eddie Rosario. I liked the outfield of Bob Allison (lf), Jimmie Hall (cf) and Tony Oliva (rf).
  17. I thought Beau Burroughs (Kevin Costner) was the guy who bonked all the family Huttinger women who the Mrs. Robinson song was supposedly based on. ? (Ya ya, different spelling, I know.)
