JRod from Two Big Boobs stops by to give us a look at the last 7 years of success in Minnesota. Though the Yankees absolutely own the Twins, it hasn’t lessened how impressed I am by them. I also love Joe Mauer.
Small Market, Big Success.
The Minnesota Twins. The title says it all. ...
Why Joe Mauer Isn't Untouchable
bleacherreport.com 7/13/2009 — One of the worst interviews the state of Minnesota has ever seen is also one of their most valuable assets.
Priceless to his organization, Joe Mauer has a tough decision looming just around the corner.
Should he stay in Minnesota with a contract ...
Wasting History
stickandballguy.com 7/26/2009 — I don't like where this season is going. I never like when the Twins look like they aren't going to stay in contention, or at least not take advantage of a poor division, but this year is worse. It is worse because of the unique opportunity presented ...
Well, is He Going To Stay or Not?
myteamrivals.typepad.com 7/18/2009 — Joe Mauer has been having one hell of a season for the Twins this year. Before the break, he was batting nearly .400 and though his bat has cooled off a bit since, he currently sits atop the AL leaderboard and has a good chance to win his third batting title. Man Muscles has also set a ...

Minnesota Twins: Blindly Watching

By David Palmer
You know that scene in The Ring with the empty chair sitting in front of the snowy TV. That has been my TV for the last six weeks. Being caught in a ferocious DirecTV service battle since the end of May, it has really cut into my sports and overall television viewing. ...
The Minnesota Twins at the Trade Deadline
thesportsbank.net 7/30/2009 —
By Shaymus McLaughlin and David Palmer
With baseball’s trading deadline just a couple days away, and the Twins at least in discussion with multiple teams, we figured now was a good time to get everybody caught up on the possibilities that the Twins have heading into Friday’s ...
WTF?
myteamrivals.typepad.com 7/20/2009 — (image courtesy Yahoo! Sports ) Punto homers, Mauer goes 0-6, and the Twins Lose 5-3
What
an odd night in Texas. Nick Punto (!) hit a home run that tied the
game, and turned one of the strangest double-plays I've ever seen
(which was scored 6-6-6, interesting). Joe Mauer had never gone ...
The Dangers of Anticipation
twinsgeek.blogspot.com 7/24/2009 — It looks like we'll need to wait until at least Sunday. No, I'm not talking about how long we'll need to wait to to get this team out of this funk, though that's probably true too. I wrote a little bit last year about how the Twins always have one ...
Stuck Around .500
twins-territory.com 7/1/2009 — Michael Cuddyer said it best when he described the baseball season recently: the first forty games you look to keep close, the next eighty or so you look to pull ahead, and the final forty you look to hold that lead.
The first phase of the season was successful for Minnesota. They stuck right ...
Whence the Optimism?
twinsgeek.blogspot.com 7/17/2009 — "Who cares about Derek Zoolander anyway? The man has only one look, for Christ's sake! Blue Steel? Ferrari? Le Tigra? They're the same face! Doesn't anybody notice this? I feel like I'm taking crazy pills!" - Mugatu in Zoolander Hold it – you mean ...
