    Yes I have given up on the Strib comments, but do have a few gawker slow down peaks at it now and then. The sports section has always been very good IMO. For baseball Phil Miller has always been quietly good at this job. LEN 111 was.... Entertaining? Lol. The new beat writer is Bobby Nightingale Jr, but I haven't formed an opinion of him yet.

    The Old Scribe (Reusse) has a moment of clarity and praises Rocco. https://www.startribune.com/rocco-baldelli-minnesota-twins-manager-of-the-year-coaches-2023/600285122/ I then had a look at the comments in the dreaded Strib comments section. Oh my lordy was the anti-Rocco sentiment just inflamed. One comment, "I just can't stand the sight of him", lol. Huh? Rather look at Gardy? 😂. Well Reusse has a hand in creating this boiling pot of soup and now is just enjoying himself stirring said pot. As long as you're having a good time Patrick, lol.

    I can see big Joey Gallo protecting Lewis in an alley, but the lineup?

    Yeah Petty was exciting, electric stuff and confidence reminding me of Ryan. Unfortunately the Twins needed pitching before Petty could provide it.

    Wow this is such a stretch. Rocco just can't win with some fans. Lets his starter go for a complete game shut out and 112 pitches and the next game gets kicked out for arguing with the ump, but man is he soft, smh.

    This would be irrelevant even if it turns out to be true. Every year you must field a team and should be trying to field the best team you can. It doesn't always work out, but a bad team wouldn't erase the value of a good player's performance. Does Mike Trout ring a bell? Two years of top quality starting pitching plus a pick in the mid 30's (or a third year of Gray) for the uncertain future performance of Petty who was a mid twenties pick (26). That is some smart maneuvering. What are the odds even now of Petty having 3 years in the bigs at Gray's performance level? It's still a long shot. Even if he does beat those odds it wouldn't cancel out the excellent calculus of this deal.

    Looking at Wallner's minor league splits this year he has been remarkably consistent. Consistently superb. With almost identical platoon splits as well. C'mon man get this guy up here. A Minnesota kid to boot.
