to put the Twins up 5-3 in the late innings (of a regular 9 inning game). Also, his two line drive double plays – Game 163 and vs. the Yankees in the playoffs.

No doubt. That was a turning point in the game, and the excitement from O-Cab himself as well as the dugout was awesome.

He had a few interviews that made me laugh, too. He really seems like a good guy, I’m sad to see him go (as a person, as a player…eh).

2. Being the biggest cheerleader on the field after victories

Had a lot of great O-Cab moments. I personally loved the shove-pump-each-other-up thing that him and Nathan did on the way back to the dugout.

…but the time he scored from first on a poorly-played bloop single in left, because he watched the fielder, knew before the fielder did that the read on the ball was bad, and that it was going to be misplayed and he could score.

Cabrera played smart, and I loved that.

I loved his energy, and I loved the face that when you saw him on the field or you saw him on the television screen, you could tell he wanted to win. There was no other way to interpret him. I’ll miss that.

If this was the O-Cab of a few years ago this would be a much harder decision to face, if only because of that energy and that desire. But I would still want him to bat 8th or 9th…

for O-Cab. Without him, they don’t make the post season. Thank you very much, Orlando and good luck in the future.

I wish the would bring him back, and move Hardy to 3rd.

was the time he rescued a busload of children from a bus that fell into the river when the bridge collapsed on his way to the park, hit three singles in a victory, and then restored Madonna’s virginity on his way home after the game.

Oh, wait that was Mauer wasn’t it.

When he realized that the Twins might actually win and started playing pro-ball like most players should, rather than just playing baseball and thinking about 2010.

He started to show competitive spark and energy during that final 25-game run.

Was a joy to watch.

Second favorite moment—reading yesterday’s news and realizing the Twins got Hardy for possibly less than they would have to pay Orlando!

I really liked O-Cab! Iin my opinion he was a really strong reason for why we made the play-offs. His energy and exciement was great to watch. My favorite moment was his game 163 homerun – it was huge!
