Turn on the game, down five runs, turn off the game.

This is getting ridiculous.

It gets better: Toronto had 10 hits. Five were homers.

I wonder what the count was prior to each of those home runs because the entire staff is great a giving up 0-2 count homers.

Odds of >= 5 games back in the AL Central after this weekend? At least the White Sox are playing KC :rolleyes:

Uff-da... :( :mad: :(
 
Re: Minnesota Twins 2010 Season Part III, {sigh}

So the rumor mill has the Twins giving up Hicks and Ramos for Lee. Anyone like that idea?

EDIT: It also sounds like the Yankees may get him anyway and the Twins deal is better in most opinions.

I'd rather send them Slowey or Moonshot, but I guess if they have to give up Hicks, that's what they'll have to do. They still have Revere as an OF in the system and if they sign Delmonsy they should be set in the outfield for the foreseeable future.

I'm okay with giving up Ramos and Lee. I know a lot of others that are not, however. IMHO, this team needs to do something to shake up the status quo. We have the assets this year to make a deal; it is time to pull the trigger. I'd rather give it a shot and fail, than wonder "what if."

All that said, it is probably a moot point. If the Yankee's want him; they'll get him. I don't like to believe rumors, but the ones this morning just make too much sense to not happen.

I'm kind of hoping they go after Haren. He has more years left on his deal and they might be able to keep him even longer with his lower salary. I think that would be better value for Ramos than a rental player.

The D-Backs don't need Ramos, they have Miguel Montero, who I believe is actually considered a better catching prospect than Ramos.

and for a good reason. :p

If the Twins end up losing out on Lee, which seems like a good possibility now, even though anything could still happen, do they go after a guy like Roy Oswalt that much harder?

They should but they won't because of his deal.

As for Lee, give up Ramos, Hitch and just for fun throw in Moonshot or Blackburn because I hate them and dont want them around anymore. Or, just ask Seattle what they want, say yes as long as they TAKE one of those two off our hands ;)

Except for BabyJesus. Damm no-trade clause. ;)

Blackburn, Moonshot, Crain, Harris, Hicks and Ramos for Lee and a Mexican gardener to trim the pine trees
 
Re: Minnesota Twins 2010 Season Part III, {sigh}

Sounds like Lee to Texas...oh and Justin might miss this whole series. Not a good :(
