i agree with that part but houston and baltimore didnt make any moves like the front office has done with the twins.

and where is gardenhires talent? in az. colorado, washington, detroit, chicago, LA, and wherever else the front office decided to send them. let me guess joe torre when he managed the yankees couldnt squeeze anymore talent out of his players either!?!?! put the blame where the blame is due... THE FRONT OFFICE!!!

call philly about trading for D. Brown. Start the Sept. call-ups in june (sano, hicks, guerra) and ride the "storm" out!

i wonder what Rick Andersons shoe bill will be by the end of the season with all the trips to the mound hes going to have to make!

the twins lost over 100 hrs in cuddyer,young,kubel and thome and replaced it with willingham,doumit and carrol. even if mauer and morneau play a full season are they going to hit 35-40 each? the defense has improved with carrol but is that enough? speedy OF with revere and span. is that enough? ground ball pitcher marquis will that help? a starting pitching staff with a #2 (baker?) a 3 (Liariano?) and 3 5s (the rest of the starters)? casilla and valencia need to step up along with a WAY better defense(as compared to last years) in order for the twins to improve over last years total wins. im hoping for a minimum of 70 wins but i dont think they improve over last years totals. smith traded away the future (prospects) with nothing to show. bullpen is going to be overworked by the pitching staff hope they are up to it. I HOPE IM WRONG!
