The obvious answer is that the opposing teams get all their runs in the 1st inning and then stop trying. They feel a little bad for us and rest up for when they face a real team.

First overall pick here we come!!:th_alc:

Well said. There is also no reason for Pedro Hernandez to be on the team either. He should be in AAA. Gibson is running out of innings, and we must see him in the "roto" soon.

Boy, it's bad when the Twins haven't had a single hit and every player on the other team has a hit except for 1 guy. The Twins are reaching the point where we won't be getting back to .500 for the...

Reusse is probably the best. Warne and Mackey are right behind him in my book. Whenever Tom Powers writes about the Twins, it's fun to read.

Here's the answer, folks. There ISN'T any power. Last year, many players had career highs in HRs. That was a GOOD year. Now, in a down year, I don't find it surprising. Willingham and Plouffe aren't...

I have to disagree. I think we should send Hicks down and do lots of batting practice. He's getting better and maybe this could help him improve. I would 60DL Mastro and add Clete Thomas to the 40man...

I see less and less reasons to trade Morneau... he's one of the few guys the fans even know. He's pretty key for the lineup. Not sure if anyone wants to pay him $15M. The Hammer needs to get out of...

Brandon Warne has posted an intriguing article on 1500 ESPN.com. (Warne: Would Twins lock up a young standout? It has happened before | 1500 ESPN Twin Cities ? Minnesota Sports News & Opinion (Twins,...

I say we drop. The rotation is still really bad, and although Diamond and Correia look to be decent, Pelfrey, Worley, and Hernandez have been awful. I also see the batting dropping off, with so many...

Maybe it's just that time of year. Now we're playing everyday instead of getting 4 snow-out/rain-outs. Unfortunately Hernandez looks to keep starting for now. Maybe we could move him to the bullpen...

Arica, apparently, is a pony.

Christian Ponder = Pedro Hernandez

The Twins should take the best player on the board, and remove all Boras clients. There should be a boycot on his clients.

Commence the Correia meltdown!

What about the 2.23 ERA Kevin Correia? I'd rather take him over the super-inconsistent Liriano, who could either be a ace one a month or a meltdown once a week. It's also a burden on the bullpen for...

I'll say DFA Wood, open up a 40 man spot (add a CF anyone?), and see if he gets past waivers. If he does, he's the first man up once a bullpen guy lands on the DL.
I would send Pressly back, but it...

I would say it's too early to get excited. We have to be patient with him. He looks to me like the next Anthony Swarzak/Brain Duensing (aka guy who can't start but can relieve fine).

Baltimore loves scrapping mediocre Twins. Almost like how in football the Seahawks are taking all of the good Vikings!

According to Pat Reusse, Arcia is going back to AAA. Wilkin is already back.

Argh! Arcia nearly hit one home with a runner at 2nd and 3rd. It was caught tho. I see a much brighter future...or at least a much better start for Arcia than Hicks.

Wait... who said Parmelee was taking a seat?! He has the third highest AVG next to Mauer and Escobar! I also hope Ramirez gets his spot back, y'know, in case Arcia suddenly becomes a sensation and...

Wait a second.... Doumit would have to be batting .400 if their AVGs were combined.

And not to mention Correia, who is bound to implode throwing an imperceptible 1.9 K/9. I'd much rather see a AAAA get a shot in the majors than a AAA pitcher pitch in the bigs when he's not ready....

I'm really surprised Pedro Hernandez wasn't sent down, especially since he's had an injury? (Just wait, in 5 days, he'll be on the 15 day DL). I think this says something about Hendriks. I've lost...
