That article is so positive (even as qualified), it’s probably destined to be the kiss of death to Miranda’s career. Should have exercised your Miranda right to remain silent.

There is a recent former Cy Young Award winner that you didn’t include on your list. Available on the cheap. Maybe the Twins are trading some of their starting pitching depth, but it doesn’t make much sense to add an additional arm to the abundant pitching they now possess. Go with what they have.

I have created a Stay-puft Marshmallow Monster.

I just want to know if the other guy was a marshmallow salesman.

There is so much talk here about trading for a relief pitcher or signing one of the remaining free agents. Like Winder, others on this list should be considered for relief roles. Randy Dobnak and Cole Sands are likely additions to that list.

Absolutely agree!!!!!!!

Austin Martin made a real. Ice offensive play on a ground ball in the first.

I did correct my answer to include Billy Martin but it somehow got deleted. Maybe because I mentioned a particular recently pugnacious Twins minor leaguer. Don’t Know. But I would add the Marshmallow Salesman too.

Sinclair is going the way of the dinosaur.

Darn!!!

I plan to see a Yokohama Sena Baystars game in May (against the Hiroshima Toyo Carp). I wonder if Fernando Romero will be on the roster for a 3rd year. If he is I will give a Romero update.

If he makes the team, add Jordan Balazovic as another Honorable Mention. That reminds me, I left out Billy Martin. Replace any of my original four with that former manager who was a more excitable guy than even Warren Zevon.

Excitability and intensity Rushmore: : 1. Dan Gladden 2. Juan Berenguer 3. Ron Gardenhire 4. Doug Mientkiewicz (honorable mention: Sergio Romo)

Health is important but Buxton is still the Barometer for this team’s success the more health games played by Byron, the better the results.

OK - Good point. Let’s bat Austin Martin. lead-off. By the way, if he makes it to the big leagues, he could have the coolest car name in the history of the Twins - Almost an Aston Martin with a little Austin-Healey mixed in.
