Should've been Willians!

It's funny because I knew as soon as I put down "many" instead of "a small but vocal group" I'd get called on it

And if they don't, they sign best SS/2B available and just move them to 3B

Tanking is the wrong word choice

Remember when Zack "should've taken over CF full time" to many Twins fans? IALTO

So essentially, he told you what we all told you?

Why does our front office feel the need to bang our heads against the wall with Miguel at 3B and not just move him to 1B/DH now when that's what he's obviously going to be in 2-3 years?

We're talking about uniforms specifically, correct? And not logos?

But stats aren't everything in projecting forward, either. Obviously, production is a key part of moving up the system but despite what they may both actually hit this year, the reality is that Larnach has a much higher upside bat than Jeffers. They're apples to oranges of course with different positions, different roles, etc. but that's why.

Sadly the front office didn't ask me for my opinions on this (or a lot of other things!) They should, though. Does anyone else know how to reach the front office with my ideas? Will frontofficewizards@twins.com work??

I honestly would have not even noticed Tyler Jay wasn't in here if Mayo hadn't mentioned him.

Gah but he's such a "winner!"

Iglesias yes, Erv no

My Dad still talks about how bad Delbert (Delmon) was in the outfield

Oh I agree, Castro isn't great defensively either at this stage in his career but Garver is a total butcher back there. I think the overall point is we "emphasize catcher defense" and put those two out there, Garver being even more of the liability.

Twins emphasizing catcher defense... *goes and puts Mitch Garver in there every other day*

I don't totally understand how this is worded by Dan. Have we looked into it (basic kicking of the tires) or are we deep in discussions on that three year deal? The phrasing gives off two different vibes

The team knowing about it? Important. Fans knowing about it? Unimportant

Oof

The meltdown among the Southsiders is fun

Our Christian Yelich? Please!

Sadly, the position we've put ourselves in is relying on these two to accomplish these tasks, color me skeptical

President's Day always comes around and the popular thing to do is the "Mount Rushmore for topic X" especially in sports. Willians is rapidly becoming an emerging candidate for the Minnesota sports cult hero Mount Rushmore

Settle down! Almost too hot for the internet

If only one of the MLB rule changes had been being able to put 3 first basemen on the field and in the lineup at a time... then we'd be set!
