I cannot claim original ownership of this, I merely stumbled across this the other day. However as we embark across another Spring with thousands of players readying themselves for the most humbling game I know of on this earth, I thought I would like to say a small prayer for our boys. Not just our beloved Twins, but ALL young men who's drive and passion for this game bring us such profound and indelible feeling, emotions, and memories. "God is in the details". A phrase that to this day hold
This may be seen as a unpopular thought or topic among some, but should the Twins consider signing Bauer now that he is available having just been Designated for Assignment by the Dodgers? While it may be seen as unpopular by some, it could give the Twins a possible front line starter for next to nothing cost wise.
Thoughts?
After reading Rosterman's articles about where they are now players, I was inspired to create this article about the minors and some of it's history. I think this stuff is pretty fascinating and at times I geek out about learning about it. Would I have shamelessly "re-appropriated" much of this material from elsewhere if the league wasn't in a self-induced coma? Possibly not, but either way I still love to share things I find out and learn about the greatest game on the face of the earth.
Don't know for sure if this will affect tonight's game or not, but it just came across the news that the whole (yes the WHOLE) island of PR has lost power and initially, it is not expected to be restored for 24 to 36 hours. But on a more humanitarian note, this really stinks for the residents of PR.
I really hold back what I would like to say about then payroll arguments here. The fact that people don't accept the amount taken in dictates the amount going out requires one of two things. Extreme financial ignorance or fanatical bias that prevents the acceptance of something some basic. I did not change the argument. It's the same idiocy over and over. Do you really want to be on the side that suggests revenues does not determine spending capacity?
At this point in the pre-season, I’m just so happy to be seeing games again, I don’t care about the Twins record in 2023. I think they’ll win it all, unrealistically speaking 🙂
