  1. Except the plan is not to compete next year unfortunately...
  2. I pointed this out a few weeks ago to a chorus of down votes. Buck is not going to be interested in a historic Twins losing season. The Pholads are not interested in spending money at least until the next collecting bargaining agreement if ever. Something has to give. Buck does not align with the current realistic competitive timeline. I expect him and Lopez to be traded with Ryan a maybe depending on the return. I'm not saying that I like it. I'm just saying it is likely
  3. Good teams need to worry about who their closer will be... and the Twins are not going to be a good team in 2026... They got 99 problems but a closer ain't one right now
  4. I don't mind that we didn't get much from him... but I have minded Outman playing in the majors.... what a mess...
  5. "The foundation remains strong, the youth is still climbing, and with a healthier roster and a few strategic moves this winter, Minnesota has a path back to October baseball in 2026."
  6. We are officially on the "Buck waiving his no trade clause for a select handful of teams" watch. He should bring back a good return with only 15 mil/season guaranteed....
  7. "@danhayesmlb.bsky.social reports the Twins eliminated their entire four-person pro scouting department in a cost-cutting move.: Nick accidentally missed this in his 'reasons to believe for next season piece 🤣 The unintentional comedy of unnecessarily rushing to pick up Rocco's option for next year during the season while 'right-sizing' the budget is off the charts. Keeping the front office in place while firing 80% of the scouts that they likely hired is a close second but still does not eclipse the Rocco fiasco. Unadulterated Clown Show
  8. A short summary for those who missed the 'games' today
  9. Ugh Nick, the title of this article should have been "Sharing my bargaining stage of grief with you" Abel, Rojas, and Bradley were likely brought in to pretend to fill the massive vacuum that will form with the trading off of Lopez and Ryan... sorry to burst one of your bubbles. We have no evidence yet that any of them will be more than AAAA fillers or bullpen. Outman is atrocious and should never ever be mentioned when discussing how the Twins could be good next year Lewis has to both return to form AND stay healthy. Base on a pretty extensive history at this point, there is no reason to believe that he will do both simultaneously for an extended period of time. After a few good appearances Sands has been an unmitigated disaster. Converting a bunch of failed AAA staters into relievers and hoping they light the world on fire is not a plan (neither is signing a bunch of cheap retreads but don't worry about choosing between the two because I'm sure they will do a little of BOTH with a dash of fairy dust!) The list of things to be excited about next year? Jenkins Luke K .... and that is about it.... Which is fine... as long as they play the kids and the trade pieces all year and know exactly what they have at the end of the year. NO RETREADS THIS WINTER
  10. Thank you for my spontaneous chuckle reading the title of this article. Suggesting that the Twins will spend more than 30 mil in the offseason is a special kind of humor!
  11. (Narrator's Voice) The Twins will NOT contend in 2026
  12. 'still just 23' not really that encouraging for high A but otherwise great article!
  13. Looks like the Twins have finally caught up with what us casual observers have known for well over a year... Raya = Bullpen Congrats... or something...
  14. McCusker pinch hitting is a nice microcosm for the state of this team... and franchise for that matter...
  15. MLB pitchers are going to chew Rodriguez up and spit him out. They will be able through strikes and more consistently hit their spots. Rodriguez does not hit well enough in the strike zone which is fine for AAA where he can get a bunch of walks but that will NOT translate to the BIGs
  16. He is not the Fall Guy... objectively, he is not one of the 30 best managers in the world.... or even close for that matter. He should have been fired looooong ago. Him getting his option year picked up when there was NO TEAM waiting to hire him was BONKERS (especially tone deaf when if they were trying to cut salary). If they really wanted him back they could have signed him for less. Again, there would be NO competition for his services. But again, as I've posted elsewhere, I want him to stay now so he can have a daily front row seat to the S- Show that he helped create and suffer as he deserves.
  17. I was on the fire Rocco train for years but now I want him to suffer through this with a front row seat like he deserves....
