  1. There is no way to project home runs going into next year. MLB May put its collective head in the proverbial sand and pretend last year’s ball wasn’t juiced and roll the same ball out there next year. On the other hand, they may lead into the almost “dead-ball era”.
  2. Max Kepler Schnitzel night. Or Brat night. Strudel night. Bier night. Porsche Give-away night. Time the promotion to a game started by opposing pitcher Domingo Germán The Germanesque possibilities abound.
  3. OK. I’ll jump into the deep end. He’ll be the lead off hitter before the end of the year
  4. In the Cascades song, the singer sings about how the rain reminds him of “What A Fool I’ve Been”. I’m hopeful that signing The Rainmaker was NOT foolish.
  5. OK. The Garbage song probably gets deleted: the lyrics “Bring Your Misery Down on Me” may be too much for often snake-bit Minnesota sports fans. The Twins won’t listen to us anyway. They used to have the stupid Dance-off. This is the team that played “Love is the Drug” after two Teen Challenge rehab graduates threw out the first ball and played the raunchy “Lust for Life by Iggy POP during a pitching change (I sang along). They ignored my suggestion that Jon Rauch have the greatest closer song that a tall guy could have had - “I Stand Tall” by The Dictators (starting with final guitar solo into the repeated I Stand Tall chorus). This is futile

  7. I have a better five, only agreeing on Prince “Purple Rain” as #1 for local connection, although it is less celebratory and happy about the bringing of rain than the next ones (notice I exclude songs that regret Rain like “Let It Rain” by Clapton Or “Rainy Days and Mondays” always get me down): 2. “I’m Only Happy When It Rains” by Garbage 3. “Singing in the Rain” Gene Kelly (play the craziest part of the scene from the classic movie) 4. “Have You Ever Seen the Rain” (coming down on a sunny day) Better choice for a Creedence CR song. Play it for home run trot during day games 5. “I Love a Rainy Night” by Eddie Rabbit for night games.
  8. On that list, the Nats are not getting the respect they earned last year Twins odds look good. I don’t understand a Cleveland being rated higher

  10. Oops. That’s dollars over many years. Hopefully, the in-house guys can cut it. If they don’t, then Pineda will be there in Mid-May, and Rich Hill in mid-season. If the Twins are in 1rst or contending, there will be additional options as the trade deadline gets close. So. Stay put.
  11. The Twins were not going to sign one of the top 5 FA starters. From horses to spouse home towns, there were factors beyond simply offering tons of dollars ove many yea
  12. I like it for next year, and maybe even the next year. Worried about his production in last 2-3 years. His injury problems 2 of the last 3 years also a cause for concern.
  13. At least, we know the Twins didn’t cheat. Because Minnesota teams always get caught when they cheat (Joe Smith, Tice tickets, Gophers everything . . .)
  14. If Sano balloons to 300 lbs, he will hear it from the fans. I like the tesam option in the fourth year, giving him some incentive to stay in shape.
  15. I expect the Twins and Berrios are possibly looking at a negotiating a long-term contract.
  16. With Rortvedt and Jeffers in the wings, it looks like the Twins could move Mitch Garver to First Base or DH to get his bat into the line-up more often. Good idea?
  17. Too early for most of those. But what about Rooker?
  18. On the “T” reliever first-name issue - It looks like the Trevor Hildenberger era is coming to. an end.
  19. How about trade all those prospects and Rosario for Hershel Walker instead? Don’t make this proposed trade
  20. It will be fun having back a guy with a great slider and even better post-game interviews. Yet, part of me wonders how he doubles his salary st age 37.
  21. I hate the term - Minny - it’s what people who are rarely here call this place. The Wild attracts free agents who have ties to Mn but also attracts free agents who have wives with ties to Mn
