33MorneauMVP

Mar 28, 2008 Dec 24, 2009 90 5991

My Favorite Players are: Justin Morneau, Carlos Gomez, Jose Mijares, and Joe Crede. My All-Time Favorite Players are: Kirby Puckett, Harmon Killebrew, Tony Oliva, and Lou Gehrig.

Morneau represents to me, everything I strive for in life. A hard working individual who takes each day as it comes. Most often he succeeds, but he realizes failure is part of life and part of the learning process, which not too many people understand. Morneau is a great teammate on and off the field and the Twins had better not lose him. Morneau is a hero in every sense of that word.

As for myself: I will be a senior in highschool this 2009-2010 schoolyear. I am looking at pursuing a major in American History, minor in vocal performance, and maybe, as an area of interest, government/politics. I have recently enrolled at Benedictine College in Atchison, Kansas. Atchison, which is literally just across the Missouri River, is about an hour north of Kansas City, where I shall be spending some time. During the spring/summer, I shall attend many KC v. MN games at Kauffman Stadium.

Not that I believe anything Kelly Creamcakes has to say, but this will make for an interesting speculation thread. Also, notice the pun in the Title..Twins may Target, lol. Ok, maybe not.

Thrylos98 at his twitter account claims to have inside information that a blockbuster deal is in the works between the Marlins and the Twins. He has heard that the Twins will be acquiring 2B Dan Uggla and SP Ricky Nolasco.

The Target and Future Start Today!

"You hear about the future, the future. I don't know who gets to decide when that is or when they think that is...You have a core of a lineup that can compete with anyone in the league. One of the best closers in the game. Young starting pitching that might be missing one veteran guy to show them the way...It makes a difference to have someone like that.'' - Justin Morneau

Could this unnamed team possibly be the Twins? I certainly hope so...

The Twins have outrighted Brian Buscher to Triple-A Rochester this afternoon. He can become a minor league free agent 15 days after the conclusion of the World Series. Do not expect Buscher to remain with the Twins.

Target Offseason

With the Twins headed to Target Field in 2010, they should focus on fixing and filling the glaring holes that they have on their team.  With the burden of the dome off their backs, Target Field will bring in additional revenue for the Twins to use in the upcoming years, but for this offseason, why not spend a little more then your payroll?  The Twins managed to sneak away with the Central Division in Game 163, but they lacked fire power in the NY series (again!), going 3 and out.  The Twins must fix their needs this offseason in order to bring October Baseball into Target Field in its opening year.

Chip Carey and Ron Darling should team up with this guy to become the most annoying/hilarious baseball team announcers of all time!

Mauer Fists the ball! And THAT Happened! Did you know that Mauer is only 6 years older than Rick Porcello?

Span's Positional Numbers

I am the moderator over at Twins Territory, now A Voice From Twins Territory, and I realized that this blog, which is well put together with great content, does not get very many views from Twins fans.  So, fulfilling my duties as moderator in trying to promote this blog, which has run for quite a while, I thought I would bring to light something TT wrote about Span's positional numbers:

Poll
In 2010, where would you prefer to see Span playing? Who will be alongside him in the outfield?
