You Gotta Dig This Team!
You Gotta Dig This Team!
Everyone was talking Detroit and Cleveland as the season got underway but now it's a scrappy team that has had zero breaks go their way that finds itself atop the AL Central. The Minnesota Twins have had injuries galore in the rotation, Young and Lamb aren't hitting and Francisco Liriano may or note recover to help in '08. So how are they in first? Heart my friends. Miles and miles of heart.

The Word On The Street by Phil Brody — 5/5/08
The Word On The Street by Phil Brody — 5/5/08
No Laffey Matter Aaron Laffey’s debut on Monday against the New York Yankees was impressive. You might look at his line of 5.2 IP, 3 H,4 ER, 1 BB, 1 K and think otherwise, but he was the victim of some bad luck and lethargic defense.

Let's Hit Rewind on Buzz Bissinger's Play Article
"Maybe you've heard -- Buzz Bissinger is in the bloggy sports news ether today. Several people sent us Buzz's piece on Kerry Wood in the New York Times magazine Play from about a year ago. I read the article from start to finish. It's artfully written, evocative, unPlaschkely poetic -- and deliberately, wrongheadedly misleading. Buzz Bissinger, such a gifted wordsmith and storyteller, weaves a..."

Lirano Struggles Through First Start
Awkward, uncomfortable, nervous, uneasy. Each of these words hold equal precedence while describing Francisco Liriano’s first major league start in exactly 19 months. Many expected him to show up throwing 97 mph darts like he used to, but it’s clear that he isn’t the same pitcher that he once was, and he may never be again. One thing was clear. He is no longer immortal, not like he once was.

On that day, in a game against Oakland, Liriano left in the third inning with pain in his throwing (left) elbow. It was his first appearance since being sidelined on August 7 with a sore arm.
