What is Your Favorite Twins' Stereotype?

Stereotypes are often based on some level of truth. But often becomes exaggerated to make arguments stronger or to put a negative light on the subject. In the Twins case, there are many stereotypes that have stemmed from some kind of truth but winds up becoming exaggerated to the point that some people just look silly.     Hitting the other way: It seemed to start when David Ortiz criticized the Twins for trying to get him to hit to the opposite field. I think one of his quotes from his book was

Spring Organizational Depth Chart: The Starting Pitchers

Analyzing the 2013 Twins using MLB 13: The Show

Originally posted at Kevin Slowey was Framed! If you prefer real baseball news to tomfoolery, I analyzed the Kyle Lohse signing that hasn't happened yet. You can read it here: Kyle Lohse signs with [MLB Team]. If you like tomfoolery...   I buy MLB the Show every single year. I always think that I won't and then I do. I buy it, play it a lot, then completely forget about it. In fact, here is an easy to use monthly breakdown of my MLB the Show usage:   March - Buy the game, play it

Further Investigation into the Lack of Quality Middle Infielders

Originally posted at Kevin Slowey was Framed!   Last weekend, I introduced the Gagne Threshold. I used a variety of criteria to find good middle infielders over the past 30 seasons. I'm not going to go through everything again, but if you missed it and want to take a look, you can find it here. To summarize, I found 63 good players, 33 at second and 30 at short. I also found that there wasn't a specific team that was more or less adept at finding these players, as the sample is so small that

Would be a terrible mistake to send Hicks to Rochester

If the Twins send Hicks to Rochester this will send a very poor message to their fans. Mainly, Team politics are more important than winning.   The base is excitied about Hicks.

It would also be a big signal to their young players, prove you are good enough and we wont worry about the money

The Laughs of the 90s Are Alive With Provus.

I've liked Cory Provus from day one. The man calls a good ballgame. He doesn't oversell the drama.

My opinion hasn't changed.   However, I've begun to notice something.   He's funny.   He's really funny.   He isn't flashy about it. He's not about loud voices, zingers, or crazy stories. I can't quote you a kneeslapper to prove my point. But he's funny
