well, they just got better. Bigger signing than Thome.

THey are far and away the team to beat. Their lineup is just incredible. They could go out and just run away from everyone like we did in 05. f***

Bah humbug. Thought he was gift wrapped to the Nationals.

damnit

With Pierre and our rotating DH. The only thing this signing does is allow them to compete with us better.

That lineup is incredibly deep right now. Hopefully it takes them a while to adjust to the new park.

I'm made my feelings about this clear in other threads. Needless, to say i'm displeased with how this division race is going

i thought pitching is the most important thing? no way are they far and away the best team. they have a lot of question marks with their rotation imo.

pavano is avg at best. not a guarantee to stay healthy either, liriano is a big question mark, 4 and a half era for baker last yr, slowley had an era torwards 5, blackburn is their best pitcher and has won 11 games back to back years with an era of 4. our pitching is way better. their rotation may have potential but its far from being able to say that its very good. ill take a well above pitching staff and ave. linueup over a well above lineup with (at the moment) avg. pitching rotation

Our pitching staff was better than the Twins last year too. How'd that work out? Now, it's better, and our offense is the same, if not worse. Hey, maybe we might even make it to second place this year!

Wait a minute...the division races have already began? I have been passed out most of the last few weeks due to binge drinking.

and how many games did we throw away with colon and contreras pitching? and the toll it took on the pen? and buehrle didnt win games in the second half. ok, they may be better than us but i dont see them running away with the division with that rotation and the change in ballpark is a big question mark. if we had that rotation , everyone would be saying were finishing in 3rd,4th. its just funny how everyone is assuming the worst for our players but making it seem like every player on the twins is a certainty. everything is going to go perfect for them, ok.

That defense is going to really help out the Twins pitching staff though.

 

Sox vs. Twins IMO:

Offense: Twins

Starting rotation: Sox

Bullpen: toss up given how uncertain they are, but taking the Sox

Bench: Twins

Defense: Twins

Manager: Twins

I don't think they're going to run away with it, but if they got off to a strong start and it's apparent early on that Ozzie's strategies are not working as planned, then Kenny needs to get something done fast so we don't get too far back.

Shaping up. You know what i mean.

tough to say but its easy to make predictions early on , u never know what can happen. mauer could get hurt and miss the whole year or peavy could, things like that. games arent won on paper. i see the glass as half full and not half empty. i feel pretty good about the sox. hope im right

I just read this, in 3 of the past 4 seasons, the Twins have either won or lost the AL Central division title by 1 game.

That's being a truly competitive team, and it's an organization that really understands that baseball is a marathon.

Turns out it's not a done deal yet.

 

The Twins have made an offer and are waiting for an answer.

 

 

So anytime a team makes an offer, it's a done deal now? :\

Pretty much. Would YOU want to go play for the Nationals???

 

"Well, we offered him a steak on one plate and a bag of dog s*** on the other. We know he's hungry, and we think he's taking the steak, but we can't be positive since it's not a done deal yet."

Well that totally ignores the money issue.

Adrian Gonzales, now. Do it Kenny.

 

Stupid Twins, always making moves that are good.
