    Relax thrylos, it is the first B game of spring training. Did you expect FSN and ESPN to televise it? Is anybody going to remember this game two days from now?

    I think this blog more accurately portrays how this year is going to play out, especially your comments about the pitching staff. The starting rotation is filled with pitchers who would be no better than a number 3 on almost any other major league roster. I don't have a real problem with Capps. He was relatively inexpensive and you pretty much know what you are going to get. When the Twins are out of contention in July, he can be traded to a contender. I think a number of the Twins on the current roster will be trade bait come July because the Tigers will be pretty much running away with the division by then.

    I just think the starting rotation and lack of dependable arms in the bullpen will be the downfall of the Twins this year. Even if some of the pitchers do come around and have above average years, I think the Tigers are too good to fall far enough for the Twins to catch them. The Royals are also going to be better and it will be interesting to see if the Indians run last year was a fluke or if they are beginning to trend upward. It is difficult for a team to improve 15 games from one year to the next let alone 25 games to reach the 88 win total.

    The Twins are not that good of a team right now to afford to keep a 3rd catcher (Butera/Rivera). I am sick and tired of hearing Gardy and the Twins talk about, what if our catcher gets hurt? As stated in LaVelle's article, it rarely happens during the season and if it does, it is only one game. Managers all over the AL use their catcher as a DH when they aren't catching. Watch how many times Napoli for Texas or Avila for Detroit will be the DH when they aren't catching. Also, this personal catcher thing for pitchers has got to stop. You put your best players out on the field, PERIOD. If Pavano is pitching and I am going to the game, I don't want to be subjected to watching Butera flail at pitches or weakly ground out to the shortstop.

    I wish all professional athletes would read this story and realize what a simple gesture can do for a young fan. I have to be honest, I never heard of Vic Powers before I read this article, but he sounds like he was cut from the same cloth as Killebrew and the early Twins. Tony - From following you on Twitter, you seem like the kind of person who respects the game and its fans. If given the chance, I hope you don't miss an opportunity to make a memory for a young fan.
