  1. As I get older I realize we only have so many years of watching/following our favorite team. The news that Falvey and Baldi will be back is a slap in the face of fans like me. I will admit that this team ruined days for me this season. Its ridiculous but I would see Pagan blow a sure win and be pissed all day. Then repeat a day or two later. Then a few days later once more. The Twins think Im stupid and I have been. Not anymore. Wont be going to the games (or taking my family) next year, wont be buying merchandise, may not be following them at all. The Twins ownership/leadership couldnt care less about me as a fan, why should I care about them?
  2. I anticipate a foreboding future for the Twins. Never in 35 years of being a fan have I seen a darker future. They will always be my team, probably just need to tune out for a few more years until the overmatched, extremely uninspiring leadership of this team is gone. So jealous of the Rays and Guardians. Imagine having smart people run your baseball operation. I know its hard for us. Still do think there is a chance we win a playoff game in the next 10-15 years though. I think its important to understand as a Twins fan, our owners do not care much if the team wins. Its just a money making project for the Pohlad boys. Selling bad product year in and year out to people like me who are dumb enough to buy it.
  3. Not a betting man myself but anyone who wants to make some money bet on the Guardians the next 3 games. Tito vs. Baldelli. Easy money.
  4. Too bad we couldnt have used Wallner while it still mattered. Instead Beckham, Garlick (batting first often), etc were used when it mattered. Fun to see, if you are a Guardians or White Sox fan.
  5. A horrendous mix of a FO that didnt know how to put a competent bullpen together and a manager who is atrocious at determining how to use his pitching staff. No wonder Wes Johnson would rather coach at the University of Arkansas.
  6. Kinda tuning out now guys cuz exhibition baseball doesnt do much for me. The writing has been on the wall since the Twins epic choke against the Guardians in the summer. Baldi ball at its worse. Time to recognize its over. All the best to every Twins fan. Remember those of us who dont want Baldi back dont want him fired because we dont like him. We want him fired because we want to win another World Series and I promise you he will never get us anywhere near that level. He simply doesnt get the most from his players.
  7. Imagine having a manager that wins your 5-8 extra games a year with his brilliant management. Our reality: Losing 5-`10 extra games this year, probably more when you consider the horrendous lineup decisions with a very poor game manager. Heartbreaking. Cant win with a leader who is in over his head, Baldelli clearly is not the man for the job. Is Falvey? starting to think he may not be.
  8. Never. If we have a great season next year his poor game management will doom us. Such a frustrating season. Out managed and out smarted by the Guardians. Pathetic. Hope the Twins dont sacrifice our future with him. He has had his chance. Congrats on that 100+ win season. Lets find a coach who can win us a next playoff game. Hell, win us a playoff series for the first time in over 20 years. Teams take on the personality of their coach. This team underperforms, doesnt trust one another and chokes. I have never seen a more disappointing Twins team in 35 years of being a fan. ?
  9. My biggest concern is that Baldi and Tito are polar opposites. Tito know how to get the most out of his players and put them in a position to win. Baldelli does the opposite. Hopefully Garlick wont be batting first tonight (another example of how the Twins have to win despite Rocco's management)
  10. Talent level aside I cant remember a Twins team in 35 years that had a stronger craving to lose big games than this team. Started with the bullpen (and Baldelli's poor pitching decisions) which have now spread to the entire teams consciousness. If you were explaining to someone the definition of finding a way to lose todays Twins game was a classic. If I was a betting man, Id bet the farm on the Yankees this evening, despite a winner in Ryan pitching. He can only do so much by himself and he will be taken out at the most idiotic time, too early or too late. Then an overlooked bullpen will be run by a poor game day manager. Cant wait to watch.
  11. Becoming more and more obvious why Wes Johnson bailed on a first place team mid season. No doubt the Twins have missed him. Watkins is horrendous but winning doesnt matter enough to the franchise to change 3rd base coaches.
  12. Sure but those teams were largely devoid of talent. Except for my beloved Radke. Damn I miss him. This team is different. They could be a bit better but they expect to lose and choke in big games. 19 straight playoff losses dont happen without a mental block related to winning big games. Falvey/Baldi ball
  13. Absolutely. He is unwatchable. I have no idea how he got his role. It is hard to imagine someone being worse at analysis. Must be on because of his good lucks.
