They stink!

Twins are the worst team in baseballs

I started tuning this team out over a week ago after the pathetic showing in Anaheim. Looks like that was for the best. I think it's going to be checking this site once a week for the next couple months and a glance at the final scores when the notification pops up on my phone.... Better things to do with a world that's reopening.

If any team needed a few unplanned games away from baseball, it was this team. I was getting ill watching them.

Duffey is one of the best relievers in baseball!

I started watching this team while I was a teenager in 2002, after I'd moved to Minnesota the summer before high school and had nothing else to do. They went to the ALCS that year and had no real business being there and they captured my imagination. I am now in my mid-30s and I have been following them ever since. Grown up, in the middle of a career, I have children, a house. My life progresses and yet this Twins team does not. While everything changes around me all the time, there is one thing I can count on. The Twins will be a disappointment. They will make you wonder why you spend all your time and energy on it. But, same as every other damn year, I will watch it again the next. The seasons will pass, sun will rise and set, tides will roll in and out, and the Twins will still suck. See you all next spring.

I'm sorry but unless you're being sentimental this is Nathan without question.

Willing to bet that's the first use of "betwixt" on twinsdaily. Betwins.

Steve stone on sox broadcast responding to Benetti who (understandably) is still exasperated and looking for an explanation over the 10ish times Romo threw over to 1st during his inning: "I'm going to give him your hotel room number, do you speak Spanish?" Sergio Romo - from California

Lewis doesn't seem like he's done much to deserve that so far this year or is it just because of his prospect status?

Lavelle was wondering...https://twitter.com/LaVelleNeal/status/1125063243192573952?s=19

I was at this game! Wahoo home opener! Stadium is just as nice as everyone says and seats are right on top of the field even more so than an average minor league venue. Alcala did not look great after the first couple innings and seemed to be working in the lower 90s despite what I've heard about his velocity, and that gift strikeout you refer to was definitely that, but I will say Brian Schales absolutely smoked the ball every time he was up. He's a nonprospect they got from Miami? as far as I know but certainly outshined the rest of the lineup on that particular evening.

For a team that's on pace to go 65-97 and employs the likes of Chris Owings, Lucas Duda, and a lesser known Dozier I'd say.... takes one to know one!

They did beat Oakland that one time... Gather round and grandpappy will tell you a story...

Why is it "nonsense," exactly?

Weren't there more logical choices to DFA ahead of De Jong though? I'll just leave these first couple comments from the mlbtr post here: nmendoza7 Tyler Duffey is absolutely blackmailing someone hrbekrules He has got some sketchy pictures Falvey for sure!

This is still arguably a top 5 system overall, certainly a top 10.

Buy low on Stroman and /or Sonny Gray? Jays were already talking to San Diego about low top 100 prospects for him and that was too steep. Maybe would take somebody like Rooker or Larnach.

Derek Falvey 3:34 Am I the mystery team for Machado? Steve Adams 3:36 That'd be Twins chief baseball officer Derek Falvey, and as I've said continually, they should be. Zero dollars on the books beyond '19. AL Central is weak. Move Sano to 1B, push Cron to the Tyler Austin bench bat role / safety net at 1B/DH. It's an easy fit. Plus, do they really want a division rival to sign him for way less than most expected him to command at the outset of free agency?

This is a good take

A touching, heartfelt, and fitting bon voyage for Joe! #singlesarethenewhomers and GIDP's are just run scoring doubles that never got their wings. One of St. Paul's finest! I feel comfortable putting him above FSF with his two good books, but he's no Mitch Hedberg, let's be honest. JM is an all time great Minnesotan. And I went to high school with one of his cousins, so I consider this a personal matter. I also appreciate that none of his relations ever tried to sell me a car. Thank you #7!

Twins look like they taking your advice. There is nobody good on this team! If you're pinning your hopes on Eduardo Escobar (and he has been very good) well - that speaks for itself. Sano in particular has disappointed me. He had a lot of potential.
