So since I do the Extra Innings packy, I get the Twins announcers for this series. They're not bad at all... I actually meant to start a thread at the beginning of the year to grade oposing teams annoucers for the whole season on road games but forgot about it. Anyway, they are sooooo psyched about Target Field being built. Now the fact it's Target means to me it will be cheap, or was hoping it would be nice and just be a naming rights thing. Anyhow, I looked it up and here is a cool animation of the new Twins field for next year.

I'm impressed to be honest. I like the Twins, always have. This was a huge thing to finally happen - them getting a new stadium's been on the plate for what, 15 year??? The stadium looks sweet too. I'm assuming the weather willl be just a tad worse than boston but only in coldness for the most. I love that. Guys making millions to play baseball should be forced to play in 40 degree weather at least 9 times a year.
Anyway, good for them. Good team, Good announcers (not best, but good), good organization. Nicely done new outdoor stadium!!!!!
GO SOX!
