With that in mind it is time to examine a starting line-up of current players who have made the Twins look like little leaguers over the years.

Mike Mussina is finally starting realize that he
can't use his fastball to blow people away, and...
it's working to his advantage. After four starts this season, Mussina was 1-3 with a 5.75 ERA. Many were talking about how he was done and he was even called out by Hank Steinbrenner , saying he should pitch more like Jamie Moyer . Since then, Mussina has rebounded.

Winning three games in a row has been
a curse for the Yankees so far this season....
The Yankees' longest winning streak of the season has been three games, which has been accomplished three times. The two times they won three games in a row in April - April 14-16 and April 20-23 - they followed with three consecutive losses. As a result, they are only 17-17 through 34 games this season.
