Either way as the season go on perk throws more meat. 3 mil for 70 solid innings. With the rest of the bullpen the way it is he probably should have asked for more
Perkins spoke out against how the twins handled him. I seem to remember he thought they were trying to screw him on service time. It was something along those lines.
The problem with the statistical breakdown is Mauer's health. He has only been healthy half of his career, and when he is he hits great, when he plays injured he hits 290
No, but they will not have a lot of suitors if they come close to 100 losses again, nobody wants to go see a terrible minor league team unless they have future stars. The Twins are lacking in that area.
Twins better hope some of these guys can win some games in AAA, otherwise Rochester is going tell the twins thanks but no thanks to being the twins AAA affiliate
What people don't realize is with a lot of the big lumbering type of 1st basemen, they have great hand-eye coordination. They need it to swing the bat full speed and hit a baseball 400 feet. Sometimes it also translates into great scooping ability. You'd think Doumit as a catcher would be able to pick up balls in the dirt.
I can't disagree with that. Revere, Carroll, doumit, Valencia, and Casilla are all regulars, but they are all floaters. If baker is healthy he will be good. He will be injured though
I wouldn't have given joe Mauer 23 mil a year, that is way too high a percentage of the teams payroll. He probably would be playing for the yanks but I would have 2-3 good ball players, maybe a quality arm
Pavano is the only legit option who has been fairly healthy. I was reading an ESPN top 100 fantasy mlb players list. Twins had zero players on the list. Sad
