  1. Agreed. Just wanted to hear the other side of the discussion from others who feel they should trade prospects for pitching instead of Dozier for pitching. For the record I'm 100% bought in on trading Dozier for pitching.
  2. Do you believe the Twins will offer Dozier $15-20 million a year at age 31 when he hits free agency? Are you comfortable offering Buxton + 1 or 2 of the guys in AA such as Gonsalves, Jay to make the prospect trade happen?
  3. You have a believer in me, Nick. I'm seeing dollar signs the longer Dozier stays on fire at the plate. Keep it up Dozier!
  4. So if this is the direction the team goes, which very well could be, why on earth would Molitor want to remain the manager? After just turning 60 and only 1 year on his contract, this job is probably not a long term play for him. It will be interesting once this disaster of a season is over if Molitor just says I'm done. Back to pitching, there's so many question marks with the established players (Hughes, Perkins, May) on the roster... It's going to be very risky to trust the young prospects like Gonsalves to not regress in 2017. We've been down this path the last 2 seasons with Burdi, Chargois, and all of the other RP prospects. Long story short, if they stay at status quo and wait another 1-2 years for the prospects, we could chalk up another year of the worst ERA in the game.
  5. Unfortunately we're coming up a little short in the position player prospect category to acquire a difference making ace type pitcher. Unless Buxton is our version of Wil Myers for somebody else's James Shields.
  6. Also, ask around for the best breakfast tacos to find. The best places have homemade tortillas. Good luck eating just one taco.
  7. You can't go wrong with most BBQ places here unless you go with a chain.. and really, what are you doing in Texas if you're going to a Famous Daves?
  8. If that is waiting for me at the Pub Crawl, I will book my flight tonight!
  9. Yeah in downtown Dallas. After that he could go check out the grassy knoll!
  10. All of this hype that Light is a high 90s can touch 100 kind of guy... all we saw was 93-95. Still a good inning.
  11. Breaking: NASA exploring for new headquarters location. Sees Minneapolis as a great fit!
  12. Off the Bone Barbecue... The brisket is great (ask for burnt ends) and their sausage is very good as well.
  13. One of these things will be a bulletpoint on the next Minnesota Twins Whine Line: Game Thread Edition! Set your DVRs for this Saturday and SUNDAY.
  14. And Dozier with a ROCKET to 3rd base! I can't believe McGehee got in front of that. He's got a family to think about.
  15. Don't you be hating on chipped beef gravy! That's a nostalgic Schwan's purchase when they drove up to the door. That and their sundae cones.
  16. Yoga pants, school lunches, recess, people sticking their tongue on a pole in the winter, detention stories, school dance songs, and more!
  17. Both organizations had defensive magician Delmon Young at one point on their teams. That alone shows the incredibly high standards both teams have for defense in recent years!
  18. Well, you've got to start somewhere! So that's pretty cool they're getting their hours in to chase after their dream. This is a 100% guess, but don't pilots need to fly for 10-15 years before they can become a captain of a commercial airplane? 99% of pilots I've seen on my flights are at least in their late 40's, and most of the time older than that.
  19. Speaking of pilots, how confident are you going to be to fly once people my age start becoming the pilot of your airplanes?
