Road Grays

Go ahead, sign him. Then I can have a proven idiot to direct all of my frustration at next summer. Kind of like when Luke Scott or Nyjer Morgan are in town, but Escobar will be there everyday! Whee!

The only thing Twins fans have right now is a shiny new ballpark and the pleasure of watching Joe Mauer compete for batting titles. Both of those things are awesome. But unless that is all we need to be satisfied as supporters of this club, then this organization needs to take drastic action. We are in a terrible division and we haven't even been close to competitive for two years. We have no choice but to blow it up and attempt to restock. Pathetic attempts at remaining competitive, while we are in fact circling the drain, wreck my head. I will take very little pleasure in watching the remaining years of Joe Mauer's prime if it is wasted by a team that thinks Jason Marquis and Joel Zumaya are the way forward. BUT, I have very little faith in ownership taking any kind of bold action to move the franchise in a different direction or in their general willingness to win. The ballpark will continue printing large piles of money for the Pohlads, and it will be business as usual for them despite how much the team's core fans may want to watch compelling baseball played there. Which sucks, because idiot that I am, I really like this ****ing team.
