He wasn't given a chance because he was bad in Rochester and bad in his brief stints with the Twins. This is just the way things work with players who leave the Twins.
He was back at 2B today. I'm guessing it was just to keep his bat in the lineup and let someone else play 2nd.
I really hope that is not what we'll be looking at a couple years from now. Tosoni and Plouffe are not going to = Kubel and Cuddyer.
No Burnett for me. Yankees would have to eat nearly all the salary and except a non-prospect. If any money is spent its on Oswalt.
A lot of Morneau's struggles last year came from being out of baseball shape for so long, he never had a chance to rebuild his strength over the offseason. If he is healthy I expect .290/.360/.850 or...
You guys are all nuts, we got Willingham who has the best OPS over the last three years of all 3 players and signed up cheaper per year and gained 3 draft picks in the process. Not to mention this is...
Deal is supposedly 3/21 which would be terrific deal. With arbitration figured in we should be just above 90 million with our salary. Leaving about 10 million left which could be used towards...
We don't have that big time prospects to make a deal happen. Our best prospects our too raw and young (Sano, Rosario, Arcia) for an impact trade for a huge superstar like Hanley.
Valencia is not an outfielder... RF is any of Cuddyer, DeJesus or Kubel if signed. Tosoni and Benson are possibilities in the minors, but neither is likely to start next year.
Butera as our...
With Baker and Gibson's injuries, we can't afford to trade Slowey.
He is worse than Sanchez.
For Cole Nelson and player to be named.

I'm not sure what a fair deal is for Pavano, it depends on how other teams view his contract. Personally I think he'd be a better fit for the Cards or other teams with actual front-end starters. He's...
What? Perkins is signed through 2014...

Baker pitching like an ace today, he has been having a great year so far.
Arcia is getting elbow surgery. He wasn't able to field this year so elbow surgery was required. I think he will be out for about 3 months they said so I'm not sure if he'll make it back by the end...
I think you have a lot of good ideas here. I think signing Broxton could be a good move for the Twins. DeJesus wouldn't be a bad signing either, but I'm not sure we'd really need to if we keep Young...
This would cause so much more harm then good, especially in the eyes of fans. Playoffs are most likely out of the picture, but it doesn't mean we shouldn't try and win. Obviously you want to get...
DeVries won't be a closer, but he could be a good pen guy. Don't let the numbers deceive though. Slama put up better numbers for much longer stretches.
I'm all for getting Duensing in the pen and calling up Gibson, but now Liriano is scratched from the start and if he goes to the DL, Duensing obviously has to stay a starter, but honesty...
