He wanted out because twins wouldn't pay him, and he brought Gomez over who was one of my favorites despite brief career


Go Go Gomez... he was fun to watch

Dude... HE CRIED when he was traded here. Can't make it up. 43 yrs young/ :yo:


I heard McPhail say a few years back if he could take back one decision he has made over his career it would be that trade.

I'm surprised nobody said Viola or Johan, both forced their way out... Also you are all young, Tommy Herr is probably the most hated player to ever wear a Twins uniform.

Caught an Independent Atlantic league game over the weekend and the team from High Points pitching coach was none other than Frank Viola

Easily. Game changer when healthy.

I think this year alone Buxton has stolen more runs with insane base running than Gomez ever did for us.

That’s not a nope to what I said lmao

Buxton defensively shits on Gomez. Far better base runner. We also win games with Buxton and are a train wreck when he’s not playing

He’s also considerably more disciplined. Hence the actual upside.

You said he is "easily" better, he is not.
