  1. I think it’s helps that they play in the AL East. Not much hate left after the Yankees and Red Sox take their share. They used to be the underdogs who often beat up on the Yankees.
  2. No, Miguel Sano is my Dad’s least favorite player.
  3. There isn’t room for all of them, but here are a few. I thought Gary Sanchez would hit better after his change of scenery. I am wrong every morning and night when I check MLB trade rumors and expect to read about a move the Twins made to better the team. I thought the Twins would extend Gio and have him long term. I thought Kepler would figure things out and get some opposite field hits. Baseball is a humbling sport, even for armchair general managers.
  4. My Paul Wellstone story happened at the State Fair. We liked to take our kids around to meet politicians, to shake hands and say hello. We saw Senator Wellstone was there and got in line to meet him. We arrived a little early and only had about third of a block line of people to wait for. The line grew long behind us. We got up to him pretty quickly and he cordially greeted us. I had a question for him about the BWCA and the conflict then with motors and motorized portages. Then something amazing happened. He started explaining at length the background, the current problem, and his position. This took several minutes. As the line grew far longer, his aides were trying to hurry him but he didn’t listen. He stopped only when he had completed his explanation. It was a fun and memorable experience for my whole family.
  5. I can’t watch tonight but checking on Gameday, Mahle looks like he has lost his velocity again. Is this true?
  6. Now Lopez is pitching in the 7th. Who is going to pitch in the 9th if, and it’s a big if, a really big if, the Twins take the lead?
  7. In his last at bat yesterday that ended the game, he looked like he would rather be anywhere else than in the batter’s box. It’s sad, for both him and the team, that he is struggling at the plate.
  8. Snell went 3.2 innings last night in Denver. He walked 6, struck out 5 and gave up 5 runs. So his last outing doesn’t look good altogether Colorado is a tough place to pitch.
  9. That’s too bad for Taylor. I think he has pitched in a lot of games. As of right now, it looks like neither team won that deal.
  10. Yes great job by Watkins and Kepler. Great catch by Buxton. But wow our shortstop has an arm. Great throw by Correa to finish the game.
  11. I am concerned that Buxton is playing hurt. He doesn’t look right at the plate. The ball he missed in right center was a tough play but one I expected him to make. Not every center fielder would catch that ball, but he’s not every center fielder.
  12. Just like that the Twins are in 2nd place! I know it’s early, but it beats being in last place early in the season. It’s also so fun to watch Buxton laughing and having fun.
  13. I’m happy with the new shortstop. I don’t think they are finished with the roster and will add some pitching. It’s fun to read Yankee fans comments on MLB Trade Rumors about the Twins signing Correa. Quite a few are really cranky about who they got so the Twins could end up with our shortstop. I also read that Rortvedt has an oblique strain and is out for awhile.
