I am one that would take a look at Crede but only for one year. Make him prove it plus it limits Boras commish. But I still don’t get why the Twins don’t make the move for Michael Young. I am sure the Rangers would pay some of that salary for the right deal. How about Boof and Blackburn for Young and the Rangers pick up 31M of the 62M left. Let him play SS and you have LNP,HArris, and Buscher for 3B

Couple notes from MLB trade rumors:

minor-league deals with the White Sox: …catchers Corky Miller and Chris Stewart; outfielders Josh Kroeger and Michael Restovich;…

Anybody there look familiar?

Also, Hardy signs a one-year deal with the Brewers. (4.75 mil)

Now the Twins can possibly wait a year and get Hardy without selling the farm.

sane, I believe you’ve forgotten my caveat of Buscher’s D.

Besides, nary a mention of the current Twins on tonight’s broadcast.

Thirdly, no one can take my fun Twins memories away.

Carl P didn’t take those with him as well.

Again, great rhetorical tool, but it has nothing to do with the discussion of chemistry.

You asked me if it was truly chemistry that helped teams like the Rox and Rays…or if it was luck or talent.

Well, if it was talent, then that proves that money doesn’t equate to talent.

But what I can tell you is that the Rays and Rox did it without insane payrolls.

But we saw the Rox fall flat on their face in 2008 after being in the World Series.

And now the Rays will be out to prove that they weren’t a “fluke”.

Crede is washed up. The Twins have better players.

Crede ruined his back with a too big uppercut swing. Like a lot of guys.

Young players today need to learn to swing naturally.

That’s all you need to know about Crede.

Please, no more talk about the worthless Ty Wiggleham. Can’t field, and can’t hit a HR to LF in the dome. He needs one of the little pint sized playing fields like in Houston.
