Everyone should chill out a little bit. Every team (in any sport) deserves to be bashed at times, but if the Twins were a body, you guys just cut off the head and put it on a pike in the center of town and danced and sang at the sight of it. What I just read was brutal and relentless. Fire Gardy! Cut Punto! Eat Boof! Kill Varva! Geez. God knows I've b!tched to no end about the Twins many, many times, but I guess I just didn't expect to get SO much of it here in one sitting. ANYway, pitching is solid- YES, this includes Boof- hitting is... not fine. But if I recall correctly, most to all of you said that Twins weren't going to contend for this year. 2010! you cried. That's our year! Now, all of the sudden the Twins are being competitive (granted, the Tigers and Indaians kinda suck so far into this MARATHON(!!!!!) season) and just because we're not in first place, you guys are ready to burn the dome down (yes, with the Twins in it). We're less than 20 games into a 162 game season. We could still win the division by 10 games or be in last by 40 games. Do any of you honestly expect the White Sox (or Royals for that matter) to win the division? Don't even try to make anyone believe you on that one. That's my little defense rant against many of the above posters. And, just to clarify, YES, the Twins need more bats. …wow. Everyone should chill out a little bit.
