Fein's ERA doesn't tell the whole story. His WHIP is at 1.12, tied for third on the pitching staff, and he's got 15 K's in 17 innings pitched. All the same, it would be nice to see another lefty in...

Amen! With that said, it would be nice to see Hick's batting average climb over .200 by the All-Star Break, with increased production over the second half of the season. Of course, if the wheels fall...

The key, as Cody proposed, is the starting pitching--and the possibility that Gibson, Deduno, Devries or another arm could bolster the rotation. I would love to see...

Put it on the board... I hate you, Ralph Macchio.

And there's the extra point. Please, no two-point conversion...

Let's see if we can find another creative way to put the #9 hitter on base, again.

Plouffe, Doumit, or Arcia? One of the three plays some "Redemption Song" tonight. I think it will be Plouffe.

Okay... so now it's not so important to hit it to the right side and move the runner over????? "Just hit it hard someplace..." Dickbert are talking out of both corners of their respective mouth(s)!!!

C'mon Fien, block the extra point!

Okay, so I appreciate moving the runner from 2nd to 3rd when the score is close--like in the 2nd and 3rd inning, but I'm not so sure about that approach in the 6th, when down by 6 runs. My sense is...

I'd say he's awake now!

...and he rolls one over.

Hammer's due...

Nice work again, Parker. Good visuals.

(I originally posted this on the blog side) These are the managerial moves that will define Gardy's final contract year. Are the young players progressing? Is the current manager building up the...

Interesting post, with plenty of time and perspective on our side. In football, it's called "Monday Morning Quarterbacking." Dad's jargon: "If if's and but's were candy and nuts, every day would be...

I hope you are right, and the Twins discover that "few game run of brilliance" that Deduno displayed in the WBC. I believe he passed through the waiver wire last winter, and no one took a chance on...

Regarding Rosario: "The 21-year-old has made great improvements and is statistically the best defensive second baseman in the Florida State League." Okay, I just moved from excited, to giddy...

Great write-up. Thanks for the links, especially Amore's explanation of Meyer's knuckle curve, and how he developed the pitch. Good read.

Gardy blew it, and my frustration rose even more when I read Phil Miller's headline in the Strib: "One bad pitch spoils day for Pelfrey, Twins." How about one bad coaching decision? If Gardy didn't...

I usually lurk around this site, without posting too much, but I despised the Correia signing, because of the money paid, compared to other available free agent pitchers. I was even compelled to blog...

TR is also on with Sid and Dave, almost every Sunday morning. He was pretty blunt about Plouffe's failures in the field, which the club can excuse if he's hitting, but he's not. So, he's on the bench.

9-8 is not a fast start, Brian. It's a game above .500. The jury is out on Gardy, and how he works with his new coaching staff. Let's see how he handles Hicks and Arcia over the next few months, and...

Nice piece of writing. Shucks, it was "the bees' knees."
