    Does this mean I need to cancel my MLB.com subscription?

    1977 was pretty good. Carew (.388), Hisle, Bostock, Goltz.....

    Not a "favorite" memory but one nonetheless, was the fact that in the 1991 World Series Mack was doing so horribly, in Game 5 Kelly actually started Chili Davis in RF (shudder).

    Uh, wasn't there a guy named Alex Rodriguez? In 11 play off games alone, 3 HR, 10 RBIs, .390 avg = 44 HR, 147 RBIs in 162 games.

    Jim Merritt for Leo Cardenas in 1968 was a significant move as was Versalles/Grant for Perranoski/Miller/Roseboro in 1967. Both of those trades set up the 69 and 70 division winners.

    Re: Versalles in 1965. I recall that at the time being a semi-baseball crazed 10 year I read a story during spring training that Sam Mele fining him something like $50 for loafing. Versalles didn't like it and dared him to fine him $100, so Mele did. Then he dared to fine him $150, so Mele did that too. And then he has a MVP season. Motivation or something.

    I'd prefer adding two teams (one in Charlotte and one in ?), have 2-8 team divisions in each league, have two best of 7 league championship series, and then have the World Series.

    Looking at the relative amount of improvement or lack there of, I'm guessing that without a big trade to get an established starter for the Twins, we're back to the days of brawling with the ChiSox over the division title with Cleveland on the outside looking in.

    A nice stocking stuffer, but I still want to see the 2020 SUV in the driveway Christmas morning.

    No Will Smith though. 3 years for $40 million with Atlanta.

    Signing Gregorius would be great even if he never played since the Twins wouldn't have to watch him play for another team and single-handedly destroy them every other game.
