Twins starting pitching killing us

Hi Readers, Sorry for not posting I have been busy trying to move and get things straighten out. The Twins have been struggling lately and you can blame two key factors the Twins starting pitching, and Shannon Stewart and Luis Castillo not being in the lineup.

The Twins are spiraling down this past week playing the Angels and White Sox. I do have to say one thing about the White Sox is that there the best team in baseball, hopefully nobody gets hurt on this team, because there a good team to watch. Santana, Radke, Silva, and Loshe need to step up there pitching and Rick Anderson please try to fix this pitching staff.

I like the way the Twins are hitting players are starting to hit the grooves and there almost out of the horrible schedule that MLB gave the Twins to start the season. So the Twins needs to fire back this week and below are what they need to do to get out of this horrible month.

The Twins need to go 12-12 to be fine going into May. So this is what the need to do:

Kansas City Royals Away
3 out 3 Record 10-11
Detroit Tigers Away
2 out 3 Record 12-12

I think the Twins will end up 11-13 in May, but to be truthful if they end up 10-14, it was a pretty average month. This division is tough and it looks like it will be a hard division to overcome so Twins play your heart outs.

Twins win 2 out of 3 and it ain't bad

Hi Readers, well summer is here in Minneapolis. We have 70-80 degree weather everyday, so I claim it is summer and not spring. I watched some sports this weekend including three Twins games and the Minnesota Wild season closer.

The Twins are rolling and they took 3 out of 3 from the Athletics and 2 out of 3 from the New York Yankees. This team just needs to keep playing competitive baseball and it will be in good shape when they hit the end of the season. Well players like Hunter, Morneau, Nathan, and Rincon have looked good. But players like Santana, White, Silva, and Crain have looked bad.


The Twins need to go 12-12 to be fine going into May. So this is what the need to do:


Los Angelos Angels of Anaheim Home
2 out 3 Record 8-7
Chicago White Sox Away
1 out 3 Record 9-9
Kansas City Royals Away
2 out 3 Record 11-10
Detroit Tigers Away
1 out 3 Record 12-12


I like how this division is looking also. Nobody is going way in front the division is staying close and our pitchers are going to come through in the end. I think the World Baseball Classic really screwed up the conditioning of Carlos Silva, Johan Santana, and Jesse Crain. But I think with a couple more starts Silva will get his sinker going and Santana will fill more comfortable with his pitches. And Jesse Crain needs to relax and not try to hard and press. Rondell White is pressing and I say Gardy keep him in the four hole and he will play dividends because this lineup is perfect.

Other Minnesota Sports News:

The Minnesota Wild season is over and we missed the playoffs. The Wild need to sign Gaborik to a long term contract and get key scorers next to him. They also need to get rid of the bad defensemen and get 6 soild ones. I would keep

Schultz
Tjarnquist
Burns
either Zyzuin or Skoula
either Foster or Kuba

The Minnesota Timberwolves are finally getting it lose and lose some more to keep that draft pick. They have one more game againest Memphis, and Coach Casey please lose and Kevin McHale start cleaning house. Players who should stay:

C Eddie Griffin
PF: Kevin Garnett
SF: Ricky Davis
SG: Rashad McCants
PG: Marcus Banks

Bench:
C: Mark Blount
PF: Mark Madsen
SF: Justin Reed
SG: Trenton Hassell
PG: ????

Get Rid of:
Marko Jaric
Troy Hudson
Anthony Carter
Ronald Dupree
Richie Frahm

Twins win Two in a row

Hi Readers well it's like May in the Twin Cities and the temparture is rising into the 70's. With the temparture rising the Minnesota Twins are starting to win.

Homeruns are fun and last season this team didn't hit many homeruns. But the last two home games the Minnesota Twins have won on homeruns by Torri Hunter, Justin Morneau, and Tony Batista. I really like this lineup except for the right fielder, some days I wish we had Jacque Jones back but I see he is slipping for the Chicago Cubs. So I ask the question today who should be in right field and I think so people will be disapointed by my answer.

Players that can play right field include Jason Kubel, Michael Cuddyer, and Lew Ford. So who should be there I think they should start Jason Kubel and then trade either Lew Ford or Michael Cuddyer for a prospect or a draft pick. I think the Minnesota Twins should have gone after a right fielder in the off season. If Jason Kubel doesn't pan out and probably all three guys will pickup after awhile then the Twins need to figure out another plan.

And that other plan might include trading Kyle Loshe for a prospect outfielder. Kyle Loshe starts againest Joe Blanton today at 12:10 as the Minnesota Twins go for the swip over the Oakland Athletics.

Other Minnesota Sports News:

The Minnesota Wild play the Nashville Predators tonight. It is going to be a very intresting offseason for the Wild. The Wild GM Doug Risenbourgh says the Wild are going to go after a big time defensivemen in free agency and a proven offensive scoring forward.

The Minnesota Timberwolves won last night againest the Houston Rockets. The T-puppies needed to loss to keep there draft pick now there in danger to lose that pick to the Los Angelos Clippers if they don't get a top 10 pick in the upcoming NBA draft. All I can say to Casey and the Timberwolves is lose.

The Minnesota Vikings are bringing more rookies for looks. This includes Charlie Whitehurst. The agent for Texas quarterback Vince Young said last week that his client was on the Vikings' visit list.

Minnesota Twins Home Opener

Good Morning Readers it is warm like a summer day in Minneapolis. Woke up this morning and it was 60 degrees outside with the prediction of 72 for this afternoon and it is only April 11.

Well I wish the Twins had a outdoor stadium because baseball is back in Minnesota, and the Minnesota Twins take on the Oakland Athletics at 7:05 tonight. Brad Radke takes the mound againest Danny Haren both have a 6.00 ERA.

The Twins are 1-5 and need to get back to .500 at the end of the month. And this Oakland series could be a key factor take a look at the schedule after this:

Oakland Athletics April 11-13 Home
New York Yankees April 14-16 Home
Los Angelos Angels of Anaheim April 18-20 Home
Chicago White Sox April 21-23 Away
Kansas City Royals April 25-27 Away
Detroit Tigers April 28-30 Away

The Twins need to go 12-12 to be fine going into May. So this is what the need to do:

Oakland Athletics Home
2 out 3 Record 3-6
New York Yankees Home
1 out 3 Record 4-8
Los Angelos Angels of Anaheim Home
2 out 3 Record 6-9
Chicago White Sox Away
1 out 3 Record 7-11
Kansas City Royals Away
3 out 3 Record 10-11
Detroit Tigers Away
2 out 3 Record 12-12

So really think about it the Twins will be fine if they go .500 this month. This is the hardest month on the schedule and it always takes some time to get rolling into the season. Plus the Twins went 1-5 on the road and the Twins play way better at home. So tonight cheer for the Twins because there going to be fine as the season goes on.

Other Minnesota Sports News:

The Minnesota Wild play there last home game againest the Chicago Blackhawks tonight. Look for the Wild to keep playing soild hockey even though the Wild are out of the playoffs they have had a very soild season.

The Minnesota Vikings have some rookies visting Winterpark this includes Vanderbilt quarterback Jay Cutler. They took a look at Minnesota Gophers runningback Lawrence Maroney yesterday.

Minnesota Twins get first win of the year!!

Hi Readers it has been crazy at work and I haven't been able to post as much as I use too. Well your Minnesota Twins won it's first game of the year yesterday and it looks like they have some good bats in the offense.

Torri Hunter hit a Grand Slam yesterday to seal the deal as the Minnesota Twins win 13-6 againest the Toronto Blue Jays. After the Tuesday nights opener againest Roy Halladay the Twins bats waked up. The lineup is pretty strong and players like Shannon Stewart and Torri Hunter picking up the slack. Look for the Twins to put a good performance againest Chacin and the Jays as Carlos Silva takes the mound for the Twins.

Other Minnesota Sports News

The Minnesota Wild have signed Danny Irmen the Golden Gophers forward to a contract. He should be on the club pretty soon and look for him to get some games in before the season is over. Dwayne Roloson comes back into town as the Minnesota Wild take on the Edmonton Oilers tonight at the Excel Center.

The Minnesota Vikings schedule comes out today and look for the Vikings to play Daunte Culpepper and the Miami Dolphins in November or October. The Vikings play the AFC East this year so look for the Dolphins, Jets, Bill, and Patriots on the schedule.

The Minnesota Twins stadium deal could be on the agenda at the state capital today. It passed the first round, and will be competing with the Gophers and Vikings football stadium bills.
