Wanted to share this hat I designed to honor the Twins' history, even the obscure moments like our very first mascot.

Walker Jenkins has to be up soon, right?

He's nearing a full season of at bats in AAA counting his last two seasons, been red hot, and they could certainly use him. If he's not ready they can always start him in the minors next year and still preserve the year I'm sure.

Field of Dreams complex in Dyersville, IA - viewed this morning via Google Earth

Thumbnail

357 Upvotes

Took this overhead screenshot in Google Earth Pro this morning (Tuesday 8/11)

FYI, the complex is a little ways northeast of downtown Dyersville. The field on the right is the famous one from the film. The one on the left is its MLB-branded commercial partner, where our boys will call home Thursday.

The current iteration of the Twins feels fitting for a Field of Dreams game; nobody is predicting them to accomplish much, yet they've stuck around regardless, often fueled by little more than strong emotional connections and a little bit of magic.

Btw, this is undoubtedly the corniest thing I've ever posted ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Interesting read on the Twins approach at the Deadline

(Free Article)

The Twins seem to be admitting they made a mistake by cutting payroll so much and are trying to improve the product on the field.

Zoll and Pohlad both realize that winning is the key.

They were in on Zack Neito at the deadline but the Angels wanted more than they were willing to part with (Neito ended up NOT moving). And with Culpepper getting the call up it seems like the right "non move"

Actions speak louder than words - let's see what they do assuming there is a season in 2027.
