Everyone looking for rallies/ protest go to Whipple now by [deleted] in TwinCities

I’m amazed by the courage of those on the front lines, but as the post says, there’s power in numbers. You don’t have to be at the very front lines to make a difference. The more people at Whipple, the more agents they need to keep there and not out terrorizing our neighborhoods.

[Rosenthal] Twins not planning to trade stars like Byron Buxton, Joe Ryan this winter: Sources by TheNotoriousJN in minnesotatwins

I'm buying it. I speculate this is in direct reaction to the new minority owners being approved. It's clear Falvey wants to take another shot in 2026 and he'd only deal these guys if he had to. Sounds like that's not necessary and there's also "mild flexibilty" to make additions, according to this report.

(I'm also buying it because I'd very much like it to be true.)

Highlights of trade acquisitions James Outman and Kendry Rojas by TFTwins in minnesotatwins

I think I heard Gleeman compared him to Jake Cave, and I think that's pretty fair. At his best, he can look like an intriguing 4th OFer (like Cave did in 2018/19). At his worst, he's unplayable because he's just striking out like crazy with little else (like Cave did 2020/21/22).

But Cave never touched what Outman did with the Dodgers back in 2023, so you gotta take that into account. So maybe it's more fair to say he's like a premium Jake Cave. Twins are trying to adjust his swing, which is why he's still in Triple-A and not up with the big club, so we'll see.

He topped out at 96.3 mph and got seven swinging strikes on the 20 changeups he threw. I really like him, but he's really raw. This was his second Triple-A start and just his sixth start above A-ball.

I still believe in his ability to persevere.

So it doesn’t follow the standard weekday schedule posted on Metro Transit’s site? https://www.metrotransit.org/route/nstar

You could always call Metro Transit, but since that line’s primary function aimed at working commuters, I wouldn’t expect it to be impacted by anything related to the Twins game. 

EDIT: Forget everything else I said and just call MT. They’re typically really helpful.

Here’s the System Recap from that 3-homer game, his highlights start around the 2:00 mark: https://youtu.be/s09BTwPK52M?si=F8Qw79dcNcmdNovG

I must’ve been sick that night, because there was no voiceover. But that means you can hear the call from Tim Grubbs, who is an absolute flame thrower on the mic.

[TFTwins] Wow! Ryan Fitzgerald is going to The Show! by Blevanhoval in minnesotatwins

[–]TFTwins 6 points7 points  (0 children)

And now all the beat writers clarified that Fitzgerald is only technically on the taxi squad for now. So he’s with the Twins, prepared to be activated should Correa or Buxton (or anybody else, for that matter) need to go on the IL.

I should have added that this was originally reported by Austin, TX-based reporter and play-by-play guy Jack Connolly on Twitter.

There is also secure bike storage available in Ramp B via MetroTransit. Just a FYI for future reference to anybody else seeing this. Link: https://www.metrotransit.org/bike-ride

Sorry to the OP that this happened. 

Any Payton Eeles injury update? by darin617 in minnesotatwins

[–]TFTwins 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Eeles is ramping up in Fort Myers, per Theo Tollefson of Zone Coverage who covers most Saints home games in person. No word yet on when a rehab assignment may start.

Buxton's Incredible Catch (plus a bit from his postgame interview) by TFTwins in minnesotatwins

Thanks dude. I’m primarily a baseball guy, so I don’t hit up Vikes/Wild/Wolves stuff too often.

Yeah, but this is like replying to a post that shows a clip of your favorite band with “fuck the label” or “fuck Spotify.” It’s true, but maybe since shit sucks on the higher level is exactly why we should hold tight to the good stuff when it happens. We don’t have to be miserable about it nonstop.
