I remember seeing Dan Driessen (Cincinnati) on the way up; 1 of the best looking hitters I've seen in AA. First couple of years in majors were .300s; then had some type of hand/wrist injury for a couple of months; after that he was just an ordinary guy for the rest of his career.

Team ERA is 3.48, so it's obvious the offense is really underperforming.

Fryer is an awesome guy to have around, with his lofty .185 average. Rohlfing, his backup is at .182

but man, do those Twins have GREAT catching surplus!

Our front office was outsmarted by TOR. They now have both Maestro and Wilson. We have nothing.

Do the Twins even know what back up plan means? I'm not sure they've ever had one. In anything.

Its such a cute little sideshow to talk about after the game, too.
Ol Red Face giggles about it. (when we win)

Not so damn funny when we get waffle-stomped, however .....

Starting 9 midseason 2015:

LF Hicks/Rosario (trade one of them)
CF Buxton
RF Arcia
DH Mauer (can he stay healthy at DH?)
1B Sano
2B Dozier
SS Santana
3B Plouffe
C Pinto

Rotation:

Meyer
Hughes
Nolasco
Gibson
Berrios

Wishful thinking on Berrios? AA by mid-2014. AAA 2015. Midseason call up?

Manager: Paul Molitor

If the high-lighted doesn't happen, that team won't be worth watching. Because it wont develop.

I disagree. IF we can sign a decent OF to a one year deal we need to do that. I'm not assuming any of our outfielders will be ready come opening day next year. And given the lack of depth we have now, how do we not consider adding outfield depth?
