  • Throughout the years we have seen many teams surpass regular season expectations. Just this past season the Diamondbacks made it to the World Series, in 2019 the Nationals won it despite being being below .500 for portions of the year and the Minnesota Twins who were coming off the heels of a 78 win season in 2018, won 101 games the following year. Becoming one of the most unlikely juggernauts in recent memory...

    The 2019 Minnesota Twins is my favorite team of all time, the most fun I’ve ever had watching baseball. It sucks the short playoff run, but don’t let that take away from just how good this team was. Because damn they were good, the bomba sqaud will live on forever! 😁

    He didn’t fit the Bomba Squad narrative but a key part of that team was the unexpected arrival of Luis Arraez. Schoop got injured and they promoted Arraez straight from double-A, then he had a .399 OBP and 124 OP+ in the half season he played

      The Twins were known to blow teams out here and there with those 5+ homerun games. The Vikings did not blow anyone out after week 1.

    My favorite Twins team until *maybe* 2023. The vibes and playoff success were better than 2019 last year, but the 2019 team was during a time in my life where I had not much going right and was home all the time instead of going to high school; *and* that also meant I watched every inning of the season, something I only did again during the shortened quarantine season.

  • @timberwolvesguy6392
    @timberwolvesguy6392 3 месяца назад +6

    To be fair, 2019 wasn’t a full anomaly. They were rolling in 2020 (short season), then were injury riddled and sold guys in 2021, which lead to tanking August and September. 2022 again had injury issues, but much less of an excuse, then 2023 they bounced back to run off with the division.

    Feel like you should have mentioned the massive shift in league wide ERA with the two years being compared at 12:15. Those balls were juiced.
    The problem wasn't that the team just fell off the face of the Earth. Like with most things, covid killed this dream team. They had like 95% of the guys for 2020 (And won the division) but COVID destroyed all momentum and killed the season which meant we didn't get to keep Cruz and co for the comeback in 2021. A lot of 1 year options for 2020 that wasn't a "year".

    The Twins didn't even get a 30 home run season during the steroid era, but they made the most of 2019's home run environment. What a joy to watch that team was. Anyone who complains about "too many home runs" is an asshole.

    Unpopular take, if a manager is managing a honestly mid team and there’s no success, It’s on the front office. However u the manager is able to produce a winning team with a mid line up I think all of the success is due to the manager plugging in prices when he needs to.

    It makes a lot of sense. We play in arguably the easiest division in baseball so even with the changes it’s still more games against easier teams than the Braves would get. The Twins are good but in the AL East we wouldn’t stand a chance

    You forgot to mention the Braves tied the record in 2023. Since this video’s from 2024, I’d expect that to be noted.
    The ‘23 Braves also broke all of the “team with lost 20 HR seasons, 25 HR seasons, 30 HR season”.
    I guess you can say the Twins hold the AL record.
    If you want followers and everything that comes with being a RUclipsr (fame, money, eventually the luxury of no BS job, crazy networking etc), you have to be razor sharp when you first get into this game.

    As a Life long twins fan, I had to dislike the video. You failed to mention Odorizzi, and scoope wasn’t really a good player for us. This was the season that Luis Arraez broke out and replaced scope down the stretch, Sano was not a leader of this team, this was eddy, polanco and cruz. Garver wasn’t the starter either till mid season, Castro was in a 1:1 rotation with him

  • @bigfloridapimp
    @bigfloridapimp 3 месяца назад +1

    Juiced ball or not, Garver was out of his mind. He didn't qualify because, not enough games or at bats, whatever. But if you look it up by guys with atleast 300 plate appearances. Garver had the highest ISO with .357
