  1. Buxton's telling Baldelli "I'm good to go coach" right about now!
  2. Some interesting banter from Morneau earlier, every win is worth 3 wins right now and every loss is worth 3 losses - helps put in perspective how valuable every game is this season.
  3. And he just called a horrible strike there on Rosario.
  4. Berrios frankly not looking too good today.
  5. This Eljoy Jimenez/Luis Robert combo is going to be a pain for years to come I fear.
  6. Sorry to ask because I'm sure someone's mentioned it: what's the "RC" patch on the Twins unis for?
  7. Giolitto vs. Berrios: one got rattled, one didn't.
  8. Is this Abreu at bat still going? Good grief already.
  9. Sano in the 8 spot, wow. Like the lineup, LRLRL etc. C'mon Berrios.
  10. Agree, an absolute joke. Everything about this season is eye roll-worthy. Half the teams make the playoffs and there's a 3-game series right off the bat? At this point in a 60-game season it really doesn't even matter. This is essentially just expanded Spring Training, an exhibition, nothing about it feels real. The only way I can tell this season is real is that Buxton isn't in the starting lineup on opening day. So at least we don't have to pinch ourselves - it's real alright.
  11. There have been a couple big articles on Dodgers fan sites and the Yahoo Sports, etc about Brusdar the past week or so. The guy's going to become a household name. Still OK with the trade considering the Twins SP needs. You gotta trade away quality guys when you have no other internal options.
  12. Eh, Jhoulys Chacin is considered a "former Twin" now? Okay, okay, it's relevant because he just got dropped. But I don't want to see him on this list next year!!! We've got standards around here. One guy that I'll keep my eye on is Jaylin Davis. Boy that trade still makes my blood boil.
  13. Looked at various sources. Here was the announcement: "We’re launching a new @mnlottery “Winners Circle” concept so fans at the ballpark AND watching at home can get involved! Signs are still encouraged." Essentially the MN Lottery wanted ALL of the broadcasters to get involved in the whole "circle me" schtick. The MN Lottery wanted to capitalize/expand on the popularity of the whole thing and they got greedy. They then muffed the explanation and told Bert that "Circle Me Bert" was done, and Bert got hurt and started tweeting about it. THEN the Twins/MN Lottery tried to walk-back its statement, saying: "We assert that the new 'Winner's Circle' is in addition to 'Circle Me Bert'," and that the two concepts together would involve even more Twins fans who bring signs. Then Bert had to Tweet an apology, basically saying that he misunderstood the whole deal, but at that point it felt like the damage was done. In short, Bert's little organic schtick got gobbled up by corporate greed to sell lottery tickets, they muffed the announcement, pissed everyone off, and it basically died.
  14. Morris does Tigers broadcasts as well and you can kinda tell he's a bit more of a Tiger fan than a Twins fan.
