And here I was, writing about whether or not the Twins should actually do it.... Of course my conclusion was an adament "YES, YES THE TWINS SHOULD PICK UP CUDDY'S 2011 OPTION". Clearly I have a nose for these things. Cuddyer's 2011 option is worth $10.5 million, but with the buyout an even million in its own right the Twins are essentially paying our right fielder $9.5 million for his services...

Richard Sandomir's got a problem with you, twitter blogger tweety guy who spends a lot of time complaining about how broadcasters are biased against your team. And he's got a complaint about the culture : Fox's Joe Buck and Tim McCarver are in their 12th World Series together -- time enough to become Exhibits A and B in the culture of complaint, postseason edition. No announcer goes unscathed, not...

The Twins have enjoyed an impressive run of sustained success over the past nine years. Only once during that span (2007) have they posted a losing record. And if there's one lesson to be taken from the '07 team, it relates to the pitfalls of complacency. In 2006, the Twins boasted a rather impressive offense. Joe Mauer won his first batting title, Justin Morneau captured the AL MVP award, Michael...

Which is exactly the position the Twins find themselves in this year, Almost two years ago to the day I talked about how this club would go about replacing Torii Hunter . It wasn't realistic to think that the organization...

Short is a big issue for 2010. Scutaro cannot be counted on we'd haveto assume (the Jays would do full medicals to know a lot better than usI hope) so what do they do? A strong #1 or #2 shortstop is needed. With this staff it has to be aleague average or better defensive one too (ala Scutaro & McDonald)but ideally also an offensive force (as good or better than Scutaro in2009). Checking Fangraphs...

More photos » by David J. Phillip - AP Browse more photos » Stop me if you've heard this off-season story before...the Twins have an opening at second base. When the Twins traded Luis Castillo at the 2007 trade deadline, it was seen as a curious but defendable action. Since then second base has been a carousel of mediocrity, with Minnesota starting Nick Punto , Alexi Casilla and Luis Rodriguez...

There’s been a lot of discussion of late about whether or not the Cards should resign Matt Holliday , who they should pursue should the fail to resign him, and whether or not Hal McRae should return as the Cards’ hitting coach next year. Someone ought to, at some point, study the impact that hitting coaches have on an offense, to the degree that that’s possible. Look at the table...

Wow, the ALDS flew by. The three Yankee victories were, by turn, expected, lucky, and surprising. In Game 1, CC did what he was given the big, huge contract to do, even though he didn't have his best stuff; in Game 2, late inning heroics combined with a lucky break from left field ump Phil Cuzzi, who had one job to do, and did it poorly. Game 3 featured "Can't Pitch" Carl Pavano showing the...

Meet the Mets Jose Reyes goes back under the knife today . Mets Police doesn't appear to be too optimistic . Metsradamus is shooting for a Nobel prize by bridging the gap between stat geeks and scout types . He starts by defending Jeff Francoeur. Good luck with that. Peter Gammons claimed yesterday that Jeff Wilpon was the actual GM of the Mets and Omar is just a figurehead. I expect this to become...
