WNO.....this is one of the hardest things for me to swallow. I have been a Twins fan for along time. It pains me too see that each year they go out an acquire people such as Rondell White and Ruben Sierra...not that these guys werent good ballplayers in their day, but I think most everyone knows that they are has beens. They have a knack for doing this since their budget only allows for this type of off season trading. Hunter, Morneau.....arent and never will be run producers in the middle of that lineup. You cant tell me that anyone is afraid of them...I think both are hitting in the high 100's soo far this year, to go along with Whites ineffectiveness.....What Im trying to say is that this team has struggled offensively the last 3 years and they wil continue to do the same until they make the necessary free agent deals in the off season.....and that is what I see as far as the hitting goes. The pitching is a whole nother story. Radke, and Silva are washed up and that leaves them with Santana who has been off his game early and Baker who is a Rookie and we know how awful Lohse is. I feel it will be the worst season the Twins will have had in a long time. Hope Im wrong, but this team is on the wrong track.

As a fellow small market team fan (Pittsburgh), I feel your pain. Every year we over the hill stop gaps like Burnitz and Randa only to see them fall on their faces. Gotta love MLB finance!!

Cub fans would love to give Jacque Jones back to the Twins.
