@Patrick_Reusse Pat who’s been arguing that it’s a huge win? I’ve seen people saying the Gophers did what they were supposed to do but nothing more. The Schtick has an upper bound

[Charlie Wiese @Radiowiese]

@PhilMackey The argument is the upcoming lockout right? If he’s in the MLB, he’s MLBPA and can’t play MiLB next year and would miss a year of development without having a runway in the MLB. I don’t think it’s right, I think he should be on the Major league roster but that’s the argument

[Patrick Reusse @Patrick_Reusse]

I can’t stand it anymore.
In Minnesota, suggesting you’re going to “have a catch” is equivalent of saying you’re “going to the cottage.”
Here, people “play catch” and go the “cabin,” and if you can’t get that straight, take a hike (not a walk).

@J_D_Cameron Fair enough, Kremer wouldn’t have been on my list either, but I do wonder if the pitching lab sees something in the mix à la Gomez. Change the mix to splitter, sinker, cutter and see what happens.

[Charlie Wiese @Radiowiese]

@jacksettleman While it’s absolutely true that the Vikings dominate, and will continue to do so. The overlap between major Vikings fans and Wild fans I’d say is more extreme than Twins and Wolves fans.

@tlschwerz We’re not talking 5k though, the average of the sampled 4 Monday night April games from previous years was 1k difference. You’re the one being obtuse to think the main driver here is the Pohlads. I want backlash against the spending! But you’re missing the forest for the trees

[Charlie Wiese @Radiowiese]

@tlschwerz @DeRushaJ I don’t defend the Pohlads but I live in a reality where stadium attendance numbers on Mondays on a cold spring night are the same as they have been. I expect a decline in attendance, but this is a dumb take. Maybe wait until summer to see real numbers to make the point.

@DeRushaJ @DJ_raindelay 12,569 yesterday is right in line. Case closed, Twitter can now rest

[Charlie Wiese @Radiowiese]

@DJ_raindelay @DeRushaJ I’d gladly take that bet that a Monday night game in years past in below freezing temperatures would be within about 5% of the fan size of this game. People are fed up, no doubt about it, I think we’ll see a down tick in fans, I don’t think this is a good example of that though

[Charlie Wiese @Radiowiese]

@DJ_raindelay @DeRushaJ I’m not defending Twins ownership, I’m not defending the monetary issues or fan apathy/boycotts. But the reality is the stands are THAT empty for 1 reason alone. Weather and a school night. This game on a 70 degree day in July is different, even with understandable fan discontent

[Charlie Wiese @Radiowiese]

@WisteJosh @WHENESOTA @bloisolson It’s owned by Audacy, not Hubbard

[Charlie Wiese @Radiowiese]

@ChadHartmanShow Chad if it’s begging for a Republican who has a chance…Tafoya ain’t it

[Charlie Wiese @Radiowiese]

@jpkolb Well firstly this wasn’t public, someone leaked it….

[Tej Seth @tejfbanalytics]

the fired coach costumes are elite. they really are the best to ever do it #PTI

[Charlie Wiese @Radiowiese]

Almost a part of me that feels bad for Shelton too, wonder if they told him during the interviews he’s a lame duck until they’re decent again in god knows how long or if that’ll be a surprise

[Bobby Nightengale @nightengalejr]

The Twins are hiring Derek Shelton as their next manager. He was a Twins bench coach under Paul Molitor and Rocco Baldelli before he spent five-plus seasons managing in Pittsburgh (306-440 record).

[Charlie Wiese @Radiowiese]

The beatings will continue until morale improves

[Jon Heyman @JonHeyman]

Breaking: Derek Shelton is being hired as Twins manager

[Charlie Wiese @Radiowiese]

@JonKrawczynski @adukeMN @JaceFrederick I’m confused as to why one would think it’s a problem in the first place?

[Charlie Wiese @Radiowiese]

If I watched all of this just to see the Dodgers walk it off so help me
