Pure baseball genius. We talk about some issues surrounding the infield this off-season (The return of Justin Morneau? What Miguel Sano means to Trevor Plouffe and if anyone can or should challenge Pedro Florimon at SS), talk a little bit about the farm system and some possible trades that mig

1992 Offseason in Review

Originally posted at Kevin Slowey was Framed!   State of the Team   1992 Record: 90-72, second in the AL West 1992 Overview: An extremely solid season that took place before 10 teams made the playoffs. 1993 Outlook: Great...so long as they re-sign their best player.   Players Lost - Free Agency   The Twins lost three important players during the '92 off-season: their long-time starting shortstop, a key offensive contributor to the '91 champs and the team's best starter in '92.   Losing Gre

An Alternate Reality Solution to the Twins Problems

I read this in the Economist last week http://cdn.static-economist.com/sites/default/files/imagecache/full-width/images/2013/10/blogs/game-theory/20131005_blp502.jpg Cuban athletes in all sports will now be allowed to compete in foreign leagues, as long as they pay taxes of around 20% at home and remain available to play for their country in major competitions. ... Unfortunately for MLB, however, the new policy will have only a minimal impact on the league’s access to Cuban stars....Th

Welp, I guess I'll do it: The Twins should sign Robinson Cano

Originally posted at Kevin Slowey was Framed!   So, I guess I have to be the one to do this, huh? No one else wants to write this? No one will take the obvious grief that will accompany the following 800 or so words. I guess in some way it makes sense. I do hold the distinction for having the least reliable and most obnoxious Twins blog in the stratosphere (using a word like stratosphere is obnoxious). Although, I am more known for putting Twins player heads on bird bodies and writing about

Getting Out of a Hole (a Parable)

A guy falls in to an eight foot deep hole while at work. His boss comes along and the guy says, “hey boss can you get me out of here?”   The boss says, “Things are pretty tight around here so we can’t afford to buy a ladder, but we have this old shovel sitting around. I’ll throw it down and you can dig yourself out.”   It takes a long time, but after a lot of trial and error (sometimes even digging in the wrong place and making the hole deeper) our guy manages to dig himself out of the ho

Justin Morneau 2014

Good afternoon, all. This is my first blog here at Twins Daily. Today, I would like to talk about our man Justin Morneau.   I would like to hear some opinions, I'm sure there will be many.   My questions are: Does Morneau return to Minnesota? What would you pay him if up to you? If not MN, where does Justin go? Is this team better without him?   Please feel free to share your thoughts, I will listen to all opinions whether I agree with them or not.

Episode 54: The Offseason Primer

http://assets.podomatic.net/ts/19/ad/da/paulpleiss/1400x1400-270x270+94+0_8848404.jpg This week we keep things relatively brief (only 50 minutes of audio gold) and check in on Ron Gardenhire, the 40-man roster, and the Arizona Fall League. We talk a little bit about May and Meyer pitching FAST, and Buxton, Rosario and Kepler making their AFL debuts. We spend some time discussing Wisconsin beer and Ginger Whiskey before we do a quick dive through the MLB postseason. Thanks for listening!   Sou

1991 Offseason in Review

Originally posted at K-Slow was Framed!   YOYOYO everybody! The offseason is upon us and the Twins have a lot of work to do. Coming off of another raging failure, the Front Office will need to pull off some sweet moves in order to make this team a contender. I have no clue what they will do and I have no desire to guess (at least not until later). Instead, I thought it would be fun to head back down Memory Lane and analyze each offseason since the Twins' last World Series. I'm not going to
