  1. Nah its worse now that they swoon in late July instead of early June.
  2. What's worse than no baseball during the all star break? A west coast road trip after the all star break. I hate west coast games.
  3. I'd take a 3-1 series win. I'd even take a split. Could anyone even imagine that the Twins could be at or near 50 wins by the all star break? I know I didn't. Oh and also #VoteDozier, Trevor May told me several times on Twitter that he is pretty good.
  4. So...today is ok to bring in Perkins in a tie game? I know he pitched on Saturday, but c'mon, he threw 14 pitches.
  5. Naturally. He must be involved in any trade. As for what I would give up. I don't know. I'm too young to remember the '87 championship and vaguely remember the '91 one. So all I really remember is the end of the Kelly era and all of Gardy's. So really all I know is solid regular seasons and bowing out quickly to the Yankees. A championship that I could really remember would be oh, so sweet. Back to what I would give up. I would give up my unrelenting pessimism that the worst can and will happen every year for the Twins and Vikings if it meant they each would win just one championship each. It's worse for the Vikings for me than the Twins as far as my pessimism goes.
  6. I guess I didn't mean I wanted it to be an exact same scenario as the Kelly-Gardy "handoff". What I meant was I had hoped that Gardy would get this team close to or over .500, ala Kelly in 2001 and "handoff" a solid team to the new manager. Whomever that new manager may be, in house or external hire. And Gardy would ride off into the sunset and do some spring training/broadcasting part time stuff for the Twins as he enjoys retirement.
  7. It's weird talking about this. Gardy has been manager of the Twins for nearly half of my lifetime. I liked Gardy. More as a person and less so as a manager. He was a constant figure over the past 13 years. This was necessary, but I was hoping that this was going to be a Kelly to Gardy type handoff. And maybe it is. I feel like this team is nearing the corner to be turned to contention again. Well, at least the offense is. Godspeed Ron Gardenhire.
  8. In no particular order, I'd would be ok with the following: Dougie Baseball, Ozzie Guillen, Dave Martinez or Ron Washington. First three seem more likely than the last one. This off season shall be interesting to say the least.
