Question!

Terry, how much will it cost me to walk off the lot with a right handed middle reliever with mediocre stuff?

Hmm

How about a 6'6" catcher, former batting champ? I hear you're thinking of moving him to first or third. I'm willing to offer a radar gun and a signed copy of Moneyball!

Cant say what i can do about that...

cause Im still feeling crazy!

Maybe add 10 pounds of cheese-dip to the deal, we may be onta' sumthin'.

LeCroy loves that cheese dip, and i think i can do good things with him if I use it as an incentive.

Twins

This might seem silly but I honestly think that Terry Ryan knows what he's doing. However, how can this team keep all these prospects and expect them to have a chance to play at some point?

I sure hope they have a plan to re-sign Morneau, Hunter & Santana (maybe Nathan too). Santana is the best left-hander the Twins have had since Frankie V. Its time to expand the payroll higher yet.

Thanks mbennett

you've brightened up a painful afternoon/evening.

You are welcome

That was the idea...I just wanted to capture some sort of humor in an otherwise dismal day.

And besides, how great of a local tv ad would this be?

He might end handing people keys at Tousley Ford.

If he can't figure out how to put a winner together next year with a core of Mauer, Morneau, Cuddyer, Santana, Liriano and Nathan and the fruits of trades involving Castillo, Silva, Hunter, and Rincon.
