Yeah, I guess that makes perfect sense.

I like in the Twin Cities. A Twins fan. Who knows the Mississippi doesn’t go through KC. Damn you internet for not conveying tone.

Here’s hoping the big ballpark plays well for him like San Diego did for a little while there.

This is a pretty awful deal, even as far as awful deals go. But the Twins did just make two solid-to-good trades for young pitching. Let’s not forget that

I’d say Ryan is trying… Most of the time.

It’s like the Twins aren’t even trying anymore.

Now if the Twins can find a light-hitting 3B that can field, they will be set!

He seemed like a great sign when he had almost 10 wins before the all-star break that first year.

Even though he always seemed to be a beneficiary of solid run support.

Kevin Correia? Did the Twins front office have too much trouble getting Jamie Moyer signed or something?

1. Can we pay him league minimum?
2. Has a pulse?

Can’t wait to hear the terms “innings eater” and “he just knows how to pitch” from the media bobos.

Not saying that’s the cause.

Well done Mr. Ryan. Now let’s find us a utility infielder that we can overpay, one more past his prime pitcher to squeeze a couple more drops out of and let’s play!
