Is anyone else excited that baseball is back?

Anyone going to the opener today?

    Well. After some of the plays today...

    Looking forward to seeing more from these newer players. A couple of really rookie mistakes today.

    It's going to be ugly today. I fully expect Kevin Correia to get shelled, and shelled often in his Twins career. :grumble:

    The Umps are once again anti-Twins. Watching some of the calls just has me shaking my head.

    We usually go to a few games each summer, but we live over 100 miles away so we don't get up to MSP often. We live south of Rochester a few miles north of Iowa border.

    I don't know about anyone else, but I still miss Ben Revere.

    I heard spring was cancelled. But, just to make up for that we will probably get a really hot summer.

    Ugh, 'The Vanimal' is driving me crazy. They made this huge to-do about the trade (we lost Ben Revere and were told that this was a superb trade) and his pitching is awful. Watching him pitch today was painful.

    I'm going to my first game in the new stadium tonight. Free tickets or I probably still wouldn't since I don't want to give the con-artist Pohlad family any of my money. :bigsmile:

    The stadium is pretty awesome. The Twins? Ugh.

    I'm hoping next year. I think having the All Star Game AND a great season would do wonders for the morale of the team and for Minnesota in general.

    Anyone doing 15's 5k in August? The finish line is home plate!

    I sure want to, and am hoping to.

    I had really good seats behind home plate the other night. The whole time I was trying to figure out how/where the runners would be coming in at? Pretty cool finish line though! Stadium filled up a bit with our friends and families cheering on. That would be pretty awesome indeed.

    I did it last year and it was great to see the different players supporting the cause at the finish line! A tad spendy but worth it!

    So, Albers kicks butt.

    And Dozier! He's consistently putting singles/doubles/homers out there. Very refreshing.

    Looks like we're keeping Gardy for another two years. I'm personally okay with this, but the rest of the staff needs to be shaken up. As much as I love seeing familiar faces, Anderson has got to go.

    They are keeping everyone, already announced. Completely embarrassing how this franchise rewards failure. The entire organization needs an overhaul, including TR and Gardy.
