  1. What is acceptable? Revere's .333 OBP was .014 points higher than average. but, my argument all along is that Revere should be extended, and paid, as a 9 hitter, not as a replacement for Span in the order at leadoff. Mauer or Hicks might be the better choice for that. My opinion is no teams in the MLB would extend a #9 hitter. Is he really that important? He is not going to get faster as he gets older. That's his only asset!
  2. Obviously you think he should be able to work miracles. Give TR some time and you will see once again why he is a winner and he has this organization on the right path. I would say exactly the opposite!
  3. A guy who has a chance to become our best in house pitcher since Matt Garza is "nothing"? They also added a bit of payroll flexibility and opened up Arcia and Hicks (both of who could be better then Span) paths to the majors. I think I have a chance to win the jackpot as long as I buy a ticket.
  4. Top prospects for average guys? Are you out of your mind? Span is an average guy? He is one of the best lead off hitters in the league and he plays good defense. He is incredibly cheap. He is our best trading chip. Morneau is way too expensive. Hamilton cannot play defense.
  5. I don't think anyone is claiming Myers is some sorta of sure deal, but he is certainly the best pitching prospect the Twins have had since Matt Garza. (Gibson could be close if it weren't for the injury) When was the last time the Twins had a guy in the system who could throw 98 AND get it over the plate? Not long ago, remember Jim Hoey? I wonder where Mr Hoey is now. I hope the Twins scouts did their homework this time, I would not say trading traditional leadoff guy and a very good center fielder for a power pitcher with high risk is a good move. After all Span is our best trading chip, he is cheap and plays good defense. Morneau is expensive. Hamilton cannot play defense. I am disappoined!Span is irreplacable, Revere has no arm, look at his OBP, anyone who thinks Revere can replace Span must be daydreaming.
