We need to build a staff to go with our young loaded offense to win in 2016..Buehrle great career...isn't that answer.


I don't mind having one soft tosser in the rotation but you cant have 5 of them!

I find it funny people complaining about him being Gardy part 2 simply because he was on Gardy's staff...

I figured someone would have to bitch eventually but damn. That didn't take long. lol

Someone is always going to have a gripe it seems. Even if it's a stupid gripe.

Always loved Bruno, Andy McPhail to this day says in all his years as a GM if he could take back one thing it would be the Bruno for Tommy Herr trade, Phuck I hated Tommy Herr!

PC - You better get down here for Spring Training! The joint will totally remodeled by then, and it will be ssssswweeeeett! I wonder if that Mauer Chevrolet sign will still be festooned atop the scoreboard once everything is done? We'll see soon enough, I guess!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Can't complain, things have been pretty good! I hope everything is good for you as well!!

I kind of drifted away from Sports last summer, and there aren't a ton of resident Twins fans down here either, so the summer shot by and before I knew it I was watching the playoffs, and really enjoying them! I drive by the Twins spring training stadium once in a while and it is really shaping up nicely. I'll make my share of the games, I'm sure. My daughter and her husband come down for a week, so I see 3-4 games with them, then there's always other Twins fans I know that I hook up with for other games. Someday I gotta get you down here. 80 degs., shorts, sunshine, and Twins baseball in March is quite a change from the upper mid-west in March. Brrrr!

There's a lot of work for Terry Ryan to do to just to get the Twins out of the cellar, let alone contend in 2015. Without the proper players the Twins will most likely just flail away for a while longer but, it is what it is, and we fans will make do, somehow. I was happy for the KC fans. They sure went a long time without even a playoff appearance. The Twins will be back too!

Have a good Christmas, PC!!!

Terry does have some work to do, GET PITCHING!!! This team could contend if they went out and got a couple starters, I honestly believe that!

And just unleash the youngsters.

1. Santana- SS
2. Mauer- 1B
3. Buxton- CF
4. Sano- 3B
5. Vargas- DH
6. Arcia- RF
7. Dozier-2B
8. Suzuki- C
9. Hicks- LF

Make that the lineup as soon as possible. I mean really that should be the opening day lineup except insert Plouffe to start of for Sano. But otherwise that should be it.

It's sad that how much our organization dicks around. That lineup could be lethal. And if Hicks doesn't figure his shit out...Rosario time.

I couldn't agree more. The starting rotation has been horrid for what seems like forever.

I heard the Mets are shopping their pitching. Wouldn't mind seeing the Twins go after Wheeler or DeGromm, but we know that won't happen..

:pout:

He's a pretty expensive bench player but that's what he should be, a spot starter to give people a day off, THE KIDS NEED TO PLAY! Thank God Gardy is not the manager anymore!!!
