    Nick, I'm glad you caught my Bert showing. I do think he should be retained, just not at the major league level right now. Create a plan, send to AAA, and develop some confidence in his "stuff".

    I'm on board with Thrylos for the most part (anything to see Buterra's reign of terror end), but going opposite field is a talent reserved for keeping the defense/pitcher honest, working with the pitch count you have, and going with the pitch. If he can't pull the ball, Justin is essentially a slap hitting, above average defending (absent injuries diving for balls) first baseman. If he can't pull soon or within the first few weeks, DL and work his way back to health the right way. The Twins just don't use the DL effectively.

    I really wish I had the inside scoop on Christensen, I know it's E-Town, but he looked really good (at least to get a shot in Beloit).

    I'm generally a postive-type Twins fan (call me Seth-like in that regard), but I can't figure out why Alex Burnett has been kept at the major league levels this long. Without getting into specific statistics (I'll let the responders take this up), my research shows only an organizational belief that his "stuff" will develop. Can't they develop this in AAA (I honestly don't know his option status as of today). Someone convince me otherwise.

    Jimbo, Free Slama. If he comes back from injuries to pitch as well as he has in AAA, can we please give him a shot with Alex holding the bench down until his "stuff" comes along?

    I really want Revere to work out (maybe its the smile), but I caught him in a spring training game this year where he was ranging to his left and he called Benson off of a direct to the plate path. Ben made a weak, off-line throw home. Another year of "seasoning" in the minors could really have helped, but I think he will improve.

    Major League 3 was pretty terrible, but I have to go with Ed (If you don't remember Matt LeBlanc and a monkey [not worth looking up whether it was a chimp, or otherwise] I don't blame your mental dump). Now for some housekeeping. Thrylos, League of Thier Own is hilarous (just don't watch the baseball playing, it helps). If you missed Powrwrap's member picture, go look now. Priceless.

    Are Two Doubles Greater Than or Equal To A HR? Before I get beat to the curb on the rhetorics, I'm a believer that this lineup is being constructed for defense and on-base ability. If all the "ifs" work out, we'll have some power, but if not, its piranha ball. Somehow, I like that idea (many probably won't). Might sneak up on certain teams with little defense (not naming anyone specifically).

    I agree in that I wish we would have picked up an arm or two on the cheap (they were so available), but don't rule out Burroughs/Bates as bench bats and Bulger/Burton/anyone else. I'm worse than John in that I actually beleive our Triple A team will have a high talent load this year (presuming the players not making the team out of Spring Training stay in Triple A instead of walking). My own optimism is making me sick.....must go to Fort Myers......see the truth in person. 13 more days.

    I would echo everything that's been said thus far, but a good option in Cape Coral is RumRunners (slighly upscale [not too much] and on the canal). The above posters are right about Sanibel and Captiva, great dining, but it can be a bit on the busy side in March. If you want some more information two free guides are available from: 1. Sunny Day Guide (http://sunnydayguide.com/sanibel_captiva/): PDF Guide 2. Fort Myers-Sanibel (http://fortmyers-sanibel.com/): Awesome little Pocket Guide. Hope this helps.
