That I've enjoyed Twins baseball as much as I have this year.

I'm just not convinced yet that Lewis will stick long term. He still flails away at too many pitches for me, including 4 K's today.

That is a really good comparison actually.

If the game never resumes, this would be called after five complete. Twins Win! Right?

Neither of them ever achieved top five prospect level production at the major league level. They were both ranked that high in the Jays system. But given the Twins were never going to pay Berrios, the money saved (some spent elsewhere) and the two players received make this trade better than...

My jealousy is not reserved only for the LIV players. I'm jealous of all of them. 🤷‍♂️

Now that we have seen the non-conference portion of the schedule, how many wins do you think the Gophers will have during the regular season BIG stretch of games?

I agree. This is where I would put my money too.

I never expected much from this year. Maybe better than this but didn't expect a tournament team. I also don't think you "build a program" as you did twenty years ago. College basketball is a complete mess right now where the distance between the elite programs and everybody else will...

Two weeks ago the Gophers had a game where they shot 86.5% on free throws. Two weeks ago. Are you suggesting Medved's coaching acumen has dropped so significantly in the last two weeks? I don't disagree the first few weeks of this tenure have been a little disappointing. But free throw...

I think under the scenario you are talking about I would grant the dual winners automatic exemption into the top 32. Or maybe limit to the top 20 or 25 ranked NET conferences. These teams would then be on the 7 or 8 line in a typical 64 team format and face a 9 or 10 seed (a team they likely...

How many dual winners of both the regular season and conference tournament do we typically see outside the top four or five conferences?

What remains to be seen is whether or not Medved (with adequate financial backing) will be able to hold together a few key pieces year over year, unlike the last guy. It's unlikely we will ever recruit at the elite level other programs do. With NIL and free agency, there really is no longer...

Well you need to find room for the 13th and 14th best B1G finisher somewhere.....

Not to be a wet blanket but it might be a little early for this conversation, no?

Ultimately if the decision is made to let him go and the reason was as you suggest, I'm 100% with you. It would be on par with some of the suppression efforts we saw under the previous administration. But I have a hard time feeling too sorry for Kimmel here. He didn't read the room very...

I suppose if you have determined it is a throwaway year, it makes sense to move them all. Even if you only hit on a couple that can help you down the road, it would be worth it. I don't have much faith in this team turning it around this year, but I'd still wait until closer to the deadline...

I don't think they could get much value on any of their impending free agents, but I would probably do it if they are 6 or 7 games out of the wild card with four teams to leapfrog. (I guess Ryan was acquired for a rental so you never know) I'm with on the starting pitching. It's much easier...

Now that we have a full roster, who are the starters on this team? I just haven't followed this as closely the last couple years with all the portal madness.

I agree. It would require ten minutes of effort and likely would say nothing of importance. But it is the right thing to do and shows appreciation for the job/money/opportunity he didn't deserve to begin with based on his resume pre-hire.
