A meeting has just been scheduled for Monday morning by Falvey. Subject: How many retread pitchers can we get for Luis?

This would be hilarious if only it weren't true. I hate to admit it, but I have been a Twins fan since 1986. I am likely one of the only Twins fans in Kentucky. I have tried to follow other teams in recent years and I have been unable to change. There is something about this never ending trainwreck that I can't look away from. No matter who the team leadership is, they still come to the same conclusion:. " Yes. Yes! We can win with retread pitchers! It will WORK! I know these guys were really pretty average for other teams but by golly we will turn them around!" It will be very sad to see Buxton win an MVP somewhere else when he can finally put together a full season. I follow Kentucky basketball. Have my whole life. Excluding last year of course as they were completely awful, winning is the only acceptable outcome. If they don't win, people are very upset. Heck they have nothing else to do! Haha. It always feels like when the Twins lose, the attitude seems to be, "well we had fun this season. Maybe next year. " This makes me crazy. Local twins fans deserve better and should be a lot more vocal about the need to field a winning team. Dont go to games, raise a stink about the manager, and general manager. Whatever it takes. For the record, winning is not defined as making the playoffs. Winning is actually winning the World Series more than once every 3 or 4 decades. Please Twins front office, play to be the best. Don't play to be pretty good. Don't just hire people who are from the area because they are from the area. Don't invite ex twins to spring training that are totally washed up (i.e. Jason Kubel and many others). Stepping off my soapbox now.
