January 29, 200620 yr Oh the irony; The Twins have been checking the free-agent market for a lefthanded hitter. That could mean they are looking at such players as Erubiel Durazo, Dave Hansen and Timo Perez. Hansen's agent has been in touch with the Twins, but it's unclear how much interest the Twins have in him. Perez has played in two World Series, in 2000 with the Mets and last season with the White Sox.
January 29, 200620 yr LOL, If they sign Timo Perez instead of Durazo or Hansen, we have won this battle already. Durazo would somewhat scare me in a Twins uniform, and Dave Hansen has been clutch off the bench his entire career.
January 30, 200620 yr They should just find Jose Offerman again and just get him somehow. I seem to remember him and the Mets being connected this offseason, but maybe that's just because everyone is connected to the Mets this offseason.

January 30, 200620 yr How to sit on your ass for $1M dollars? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> That would be Ben Davis. Timo actually had to get off of his ass for 179 AB's.
January 30, 200620 yr If Timo doesn't get the chance to hit against Radke and the Twins last year...I'd hate to see his total average. He hit .308 against the Twins pitching staff. 8 of his 39 hits came off of Twins pitching.

January 30, 200620 yr lol take Timo, I'd love to see it. But watch him before the right fielder and bat .320 on the year, lol.

January 31, 200620 yr So you weren't happy with him on memorial day? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> One AB doesn't make up for most of his suckitude off the bench.
January 31, 200620 yr QUOTE(SSH2005 @ Jan 30, 2006 -> 09:57 PM) One AB doesn't make up for most of his suckitude off the bench. Way to miss the point entirely.
January 31, 200620 yr QUOTE(santo=dorf @ Jan 30, 2006 -> 09:54 PM) So you weren't happy with him on memorial day? His bad out ways his good. I hate him and always will... but i always wanted him to get on one way or another. I even admitted when he was the best option off the bench last year. That of course doesn't mean i wouldn't take 90823509 players over him in the same situation. With timo people always cherry pick his good moments and forget everytime he was awful. I don't know how many times he would come in off the bench after a guy walks two guys or even one ( but showed no control with previous guys) and would go down in one pitch. Really rather not argue about timo perez tonight... because everyone knows how everyone else stands on the subject.
January 31, 200620 yr Way to miss the point entirely. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I got the point. Not all of his 179 AB's were terrible. But most of them were...

Memorial day walk off, and that homer off of Radke after Garland crapped his pants in Minnesota. He also put on a good BP show when I saw him in San Diego....that's about it from Timo in 2005.
