Live chat today … and other baseball-on-the-web stuff
Posted on February 17th, 2009 – 8:20 AMBy Howard
Here’s a transcript of today’s Twins Chat, which drew more than 1,500 viewers during its 70-minute run. Thanks to everyone who read along and asked questions. Over the course of the season, we hope to make this a regular Twins feature with myself, La Velle and Joe taking turns at the keyboard. Make sure you take a look at the instant polls that are scattered throughout the transcript.
A couple of other things that you can take advantage of: Sign up to be a Star Tribune Twins fan on Facebook. In the first three days that the Facebook page went live, it attracted 350 fans, which makes it more popular at the moment than the Twins front office. The page includes links to our latest stories and blog posts, as well as an assortment of team information.
Also, you can click here to sign up for our daily Twins newsletter and news alerts when there’s breaking news.
We’ll also been doing more baseball video this season, which will be featured on our Twins page. Staff photographer Jerry Holt is in Fort Myers right now, and his video on the first day of workouts is here.
Because my day job around here is keeping up the sports part of startribune.com, I’m always interested in your thoughts and ideas for the web site. You can email me here.
On a baseball note, the best thing I read this morning was LaVelle’s short piece on Corey Koskie’s attempt at a comeback. That would be great.
See you around noon.
