You want to know more about Twins prospects? About players involved in potential deals for Johan Santana? Do you want history lessons on past Twins clubs, evaluations of performances from 2007 or maybe more speculation? Perhaps position analysis or projections are more your pickle of choice.

Twins Prospects

I would love to read more about the Twins prospects.

Santana

I'd love to read more about how the Twins finally traded Santana, and got Hughes, Ellsbury, Martinez and Guerra in return.

Can you start writing about how B-S finally pulled off that crazy multi-team trade?

How about....

...the quiz game on little known players? You know, Todd Sears or Mark Davidson. Guys who had a cup of coffee with the Twins before becoming journeymen and ultimately landing in the independent leagues. Or you could do it on minor leaguers, past and present. And in the quiz, introduce quirky info like nicknames, schools, weird habits, etc. Not just stats. The Media Guide has a lot of that "character" info in it.

It's too easy just to go to Baseball Cube and search on a few likely candidates. Or in the case of Question # 2, I just put one whole question into Google and the second search result had the name of the guy I was looking for.

Twinkie Town.....

It's pretty darn good right now.

You get more than enough analytical data and stats. We have a couple of wonderful folk providing a look at the minor leagues (I love Roger's regular reports during the season).

Lots of discussion (like what "Twinkie" really means in the real world). Most meaningful.

People are pretty good at linking to intersting things in the real world or on other sites.....check out my Twinsfest report at:

Blogging has become the new telephone conversation, exchanging of letters, working out thoughts and ideas of ages past.

We just have to remember not to be too stupid. Maybe proofread copy more often than not (old transpose fingers man me). Try not to pick arguments...or keep them going.
