October 12, 200916 yr Can we safely assume that Nick Punto is the Dewayne Wise of the Twins and vice versa? You think Ozzie was trying to copy that formula?

October 12, 200916 yr QUOTE (greg775 @ Oct 12, 2009 -> 12:09 PM) Very true JPN; the Twinks were so overmatched. Yet think of all the times we played them and the Sox seemed to overmatched or at least guaranteed to lose in the dome. Crazy. You could make a very good case that the Twins out-played the Yanks in 2 of the 3 games but just couldn't execute. They weren't at all over-matched.

October 12, 200916 yr QUOTE (knightni @ Oct 12, 2009 -> 05:07 PM) They missed Morneau; definitely. Yeah, I'd love to dismiss the Twins as chronic posers (which I think they are to a degree). But them not having Morneau was just like us not having CQ last year. Just too hard to overcome a loss like that.
October 14, 200916 yr Hell no that isnt safe to say. Punto is far more valuable to the Twins Didn't Punto hit .228? He's not exactly valuable. Crede was more valuable.
