the mysterious stranger is awesome

but he needs to show up a little more often

This was a triumph
I'm making a note here - huge success

He shows up when he damn well pleases!!!

But he needs to show up against Overlords and Reavers more. Total pains in the ass.

I currently have no favorites

they must earn the prestigious title of “Shane’s Favorite Player”, year in and year out.

I'm past the point in my life where I try to be original

Joe Mauer for me, please

Mauer for me too

It doesn’t hurt that I am a fan of catchers. I was a Brian Harper fan growing up. Mauer does everything right on the field and then some.

Same

I love them all, but Joe is special.

Really hard to pick just one.

It’s a tie between Joe, Denard, and Jimmers for me.

Morneau, hands down

I already liked the guy and then he announced that he was changing his number to 33. I didn’t even have to wonder why. Patrick Roy & AC/DC fans FTW!

He’s basically me with a ton of money and a wife and kid.

Cuddyer

I can’t hold his contract against him. I like his personality and my favorite play in baseball is watching a guy get gunned down from the outfield going for extra bases. Hopefully we get to see more of that and less of him at 1st this year.

Peyton's good but have you ever heard of Jeff George?

by halfchest on Feb 18, 2011 5:39 PM EST reply actions  

Me too

Read his twitter acount and try not to like him. He and Nathan are the leaders of the team. I just wish he was a better player

by clutterheart on Feb 19, 2011 1:08 AM EST via mobile up reply actions  

I don't really like Mauer that much.

He is like my pet deer, no personality. It was a tough choice between The Beard and Bat Attack but I stuck with my love affair with #21 players.

by Codypc21 on Feb 18, 2011 6:07 PM EST reply actions  

It's hard to chose just one.

I have five favorites: Mauer, Morneau, Valencia, Span, and Jimmers.

Well

I asked friends who I should vote for and they yelled at me for waking them up or told me I needed to go to rehab for baseball because I’m obsessive with it lol

Oh goodness lol.

Don’t worry I’m the same way, the Twins and Wild are my pride and joy. Baseball season I’m Twins this Twins that 24/7 and hockey season I’m like that with the Wild. I’m just glad they don’t play at the same time otherwise I wouldn’t be able to choose!

With a little basketball here and there, I never really understand hockey but its fun to watch every once and a while

He would've won the poll too easily.

No Brainer

Nishioka (means “west hill” in Japanese). Two reasons: 1) Sayonara LNP and 2) I will be able watch some Twins games in Japan—especially when they play the Red Sox. Selfish? Maybe, but I have been longing to watch a game now and then.

Thome this year

Is 600th being his 13th walk-off too much to ask for?

I'm surprised, but not at the same time

I like Valencia’s energy/personality.

I think may have been some multiple voting going on.

Plus I think I voted for Pat Buchanan by mistake.
