I think it has to be Nishi. No one mentioned Brett Merriman. I agree whole heartedly with Klingbeck, Stahoviak, McCarty, Nieto, Sal Butera.

Which Ortiz sucked? Junior or J.R.? I can't remember.

What's wrong with having a little depth? Everyone is assuming there are no injuries to Mauer, Morneau, Willingham, or Doumit.

People keep saying what if Morneau isn't back, what if he gets hurt. ...

I know it's one game, all I can say is WOW. He was plain horrible tonight.

75-87 would be a nice finishing mark considering where the team started, but I wonder if Sept call-ups may change your record?

The run differential has to be +10 or so since the horrid start. ...

Exactly. I've been saying this since the trade.

I know Parmelee has a shot and has improved, but he just has that AAAA player look to him. At any rate, if you call him up, he should play. I hope they leave him in AAA and let Morneau continue to...

I wish they would just shut Pavano down. No one is going to claim him for the month of September. There's no reason for the Twins to have him pitch in September when they could get a few looks at...

The whole issue is ridiculous. And making this fuss probably only helps Chick-Fil-A. I personally believe gay marraige should be legal, but the reaction is embarrasing. Of couse the right has to...

I can't wait to hear the answers! I suspect they will argue Forbes numbers, but we can hope for some accountability.

So you are going to use Mr Scrooge to justify the Polad's?

Will you ask them firsthand to sell the team? I've heard via interview firsthand plenty of times the Polad's and TR have used the budget as an excuse. This team won division titles despit the...

Although I would really like to see a new GM, what the Twins really need is a new owner. The Polads are the worst owners in town by far, and are far more concerned with their budget numbers than W's...

Basically you have two camps, the first which thinks the trade makes no sense so why bother, and the second camp who is stroking TR. Neither player received will likely amoun to anything, Escobar...

Does this suprise anyone? Didn't think so.

I don't expect anything from Manship, I guess they might as well give him a few starts and see what he can do there. I would be suprised if he is back next year.

I never expected stud players in return, but getting guys who are not even top 10 in a crappy minor league system is not accetable. At best we have a mediocre reliever who doesn't miss bats and a...

For all we know TR has been offered two B prospects for Span so far. You can play that game all day.

Who is to say Span's value will go up next year? A year less on a contract friendly deal, a...

Okay internet tough guy...

I have yet to hear of any reported attempt to sign Liriano this year either, but that didn't stop you from writing that. Where are your examples, or are you full of...

Earlier, you said how do you know TR hasn't tried to sign Liriano.

Knowing TR's past, one could also suggest that he received a good deal for Span, but is over valuing him and his team friendly...

29. I hate that the Twins want Terry Ryan to return as full-time GM.

30. I hate that I'll see one or both of these mediocre prospects this Sept as the Twins try to reinforce that this was somehow...

I also greatly enjoy reading the minor league reports. Thanks for all the work guys!

Just one more reason that TR no longer has it as a GM, he had his fingers all over BS's moves as well.

Whenever Paul Allen gives an opinion, bet the other side. The guy knows nothing about any sport other than the NFL and horse racing and his knowledge of those two are suspect.

Banking on Baker,...

I agree with your comments about upside and our dmen pairings. I think your lines are off though.

Heatley-Koivu-Parise
Cullen/Bouchard-Grandlund-Setoguchi
Cullen/Buchard-Brodziak-Clutterbuck...

Again, its a 10+ year contract NOT ONE OR TWO YEARS! If Pittsburg gets Parise, good luck finding a way to sign Malkin next year. If they get Parise, they will likely trade Martin this year. ...
