Morneau straight up for Jeff Niemann! (Before any Twins fans blow a gasket, I’m kidding…although if the Twins were that brain dead and went for that deal, I’d happily accept.)

But then I figure they just assume you’re Craig pretending to be from Florida.

He’s a great player and I hope he can stay healthy for many more years.

How are White Bloodcell Count and concussions related?

I believe he hitting .345, with 18 HRs & leading the AL in RBIs. He was off to another MVP season when he attempted to break up another DP hit into by Cuddyer. (I believe
Cuddyer did lead the league in that dubious category!)

Some can hardly read or write at all.

It goes with the territory.

He’s liable to wind up as an opening day decoration at Macondo Banana Massacre Field.

If Votto is unable to play due to his injury, having Morneau play first base is a very nice alternative.

The guy has been through a lot the last few years. I wish him well. Also, he’s a FA at the end of the 2013 season it will be interesting to see the level of interest in him when he hits free agency because of his past injury history.
