    No worries. Someone jumped my case at work yesterday about a simple error and my response was, "I'm not perfect". At least it can be said you are not living in the past.

    Why 2024? What about 2023?

    It's another example of how much time we became accustomed to watching baseball players simply waste. Get in there and play baseball, you aren't performing brain surgery.

    I'm game for a heated and highly contested three way race in the AL Central this season. It would be quite fun, especially considering there's probably only going to be one AL Central team in the playoffs so no wild card consolation prize.

    Bert Blyleven hasn't announced a Twins game since September 2, 2020.

    That was a slog of a high scoring game that came in as at the average time of a 2022 game. There were plenty of games this weekend in the time frame you mention, some quicker even.

    It's been on the promotions list since the list was released in January: https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.kare11.com/amp/article/sports/mlb/twins/twins-announce-promotional-schedule/89-96e44503-e4f3-49ae-8102-02b7d6b42955 Although, there are no details listed on the Twins website yet on the promotion. I'm going to that game, so thanks for pointing this out and giving me something to look forward to. I'm guessing it's a "Los Twins" jersey to the first 10,000 or 20,000 fans. Normally, their giveaway jerseys are button down and decent quality. Of course, they have the logo of the giveaway sponsor on the jersey.

    The pride of Dakota County! This is a great story of perseverance that should be made into a movie. Also, nice to see Caleb make some decent money ($1.3 MM) in 2022 and scheduled to make $2.4 MM in 2023.

    Honestly, I barely remember Fernando Romero.

    Nothing says World Series champion 2023 like becoming the Cincinnati Reds West.

    His career has hit rock bottom. There might still be some potential for Dobnak to contribute at the big league level. Anything he adds as a positive going forward is an unexpected bonus for the Twins.
  12. theBOMisthebomb
    This is from RandBalls Stu, right?
  13. theBOMisthebomb
    Yes, I hit the paywall, too so could only scanc quickly before getting locked out of the article. Anyway, I'm still not happy with Wes for leaving on the Twins midseason like he did and lost some respect for him.

    It's always felt wrong that one agent would have so much impact on the sport.

    It's common knowledge that baseball players are underpaid at the start of their MLB careers, at least the successful players. Then, when they hit free agency they can finally cash in on what they have accomplished. There are advantages and disadvantages to the system for the players. There's no guarantee to the club that the player will perform as well or better than previous performance.

    Also, the Puerto Rico team is good enough to stand on its own merits. I'm more curious why Manny Machado gets to play for the DR. Oh, his grandfather grew up in the DR. Mmmkkk. Whatever, you can't expect much from a baseball tournament that is single elimination tournament after pool play.

    Those are two decent bench, depth pieces. Almost the type of bench players on a winning playoff team.

    The WBC ends on March 21.

    Any baseball tournament that is single elimination from the quarterfinals on is of little to no interest to me.

    This guy begs to differ: https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.today.com/today/amp/rcna30157 Man has eaten a Big Mac a day for 50 years, attributes good health to walking "I probably will be eating Big Macs every day for the rest of my life," said Don Gorske.

    By which standards are you declaring Lindor clearly the best? I've always thought of Lindor as overrated due to his magnetic smile and interesting hair colors gaining favor and increasing his reputation beyond the actual numbers.

    Goltz and his heyday with the Twins was basically just before my time as my sports memories start in the late 1970s and detailed memories in the early 1980s. I was surprised to learn today (technically should say reintroduced to the fact) that he was a member of the 1981 Dodgers World Series champions. I remember cheering for those Dodgers as a young person to beat the hated Yankees and get revenge for 1977 and 1978. I wouldn't say Goltz is forgotten. Maybe lacking a signature Twins moment and postseason success here. The number of starts, innings pitched, and complete games are so impressive.

    Yes, this is perfect dead of winter reading. Better days are ahead, spring training starts in less than two weeks. I've been pondering whether C4 would enter the HOF with a Twins or Astros cap.
