garn from vancouver

let him hunt. we'll see what the numbers are later.

it hurts and is sad to see a person that is so full of life and positive just fall off like he has. i wish him the best and would be very happy to see him back with the twins should be get sorted in st. paul.

at a point early on, royce was must see tv when he was at bat. i missed phone calls and work because i was watching his at bats. i had a royce t-shirt, i would tell my wife about his heroics and now have nothing to tell her. i want him so much to succeed but the days are fading on him as a long term player with the twins. it's really too bad.

i really enjoy the podcast with john and am considering supporting him even if i don't read it regularly. he seems like a good guy and i do enjoy the writing i have read.

more and more it appears lee is not the shortstop of the future - he is just the shortstop of right now. and heavens to betsy, why is outman still around? i think my wife thought i was going to shoot the tv once they started booting the ball around in the 10th.

"The interesting thing is these same players that are deficient defensively are not very good offensively either" royce has been coming around but lee is trending to be off the charts very soon - and if gray is given much more rope they may sacrifice his bat and keep him at short as he's looked pretty good thus far. caratini's arm isn't going to hold anyone on base so expect lots of stolen bases when he's behind the plate. outman in centre has been, thus far, a very bad idea. it's a long way to september.

i have always felt good when i see him coming in to pitch. i think he'll be given a lot more room to move and get back to where he needs to be.

maybe there's a new theo epstein in the pipeline ... a new kid we've never heard of that they're hiring. or not.

julien was fun to watch initially and as a canadian i was a little cuffed to see him doing well. and then.... good luck to him in denver. it's a nice town and he can go by rockmount (not far from the stadium) and get himself a nice shirt. Ohl i liked for unknown reasons but liked him. i hope the best for him as well.

we could have had castro back instead....(i just happen to like him..)

i agree with others who think jeffers is gone. the twins won't carry that financial weight behind the plate. i am hoping am arm comes back be it middle relief or a fourth or fifth starter material while zebby and the slim reaper get up to speed.

where do i get in line for the playoff tickets?

i said this when they first traded him away. he's an asset to the team in so many ways. get him back for a great price and i think he will provide depth. plus, he's a great guy!

chrissy will be happy but john will be unhappy.

dinged enough dongs. good one.
