The Stache is Back...

Twins signed Pavano! I am overexcited to say the least. This team is going to be fun to watch!! I am resisting the urge to make proclamations!! I shall curb my enthusiasm yet relish this latest move!

OH golly I want to go to spring training!!!

GO TWINS!!!

One more piece please!

Lets hope the phone call from Jim Thome is enough to make Pavano seal the deal!

My guess is that the Twins will announce Pavanos signing Monday!

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!

GO TWINS

NEW YEAR!

Just a week into the New Year and I have to admit my mind is drifting to baseball. I of course have been keeping tabs on the new additions, trades and options. For the first time ever I am thinking how much fun it would be to go to spring training!! I have gone with my Dad long ago to spring games in Arizona but never was into it...But I think about the chance to see the Twins!! and I get all giddy!

I am excited to see our newest Twin Tsuyoshi Nishioka! Think our midfield will be really fast!! I have faith that Alexi is going to step up and be an asset! I think he did well filling in last year and showed some flashes of greatness. Perhaps I am overly optimistic but didn't you hear 2011 is the year of optimism!!

I must extend my congratulations to Bert Blyleven for making it into the Hall of Fame!! About time!! Loved watching him sign his first baseball with the HOF on FSN, good job Marnie! Can't wait to hear how Bert pronounces Tsuyoshi Nishioka! Better make a good nickname for him.

Have my fingers crossed for the Pavano signing as well as a healthy Morneau!

GO TWINS!!!

First of many?

Is this the first of many or are we really this lucky? Seriously didn't you think this would happen in April? Could we be more fortunate how this one has turned out. We get a double header on a Sat! It will probably be really cold but hopefully not wet.

This will be a good test of our new ball park. They are going to but the heat on over night so if it does snow it will melt immediately. The drainage system has worked really well so far. I suppose it keeps the field from freezing and soft but not mushy.

Hopefully the bats will warm up tomorrow. It sucks to have Pavano throw such a good game and get no runs. We left too many on base! Don't think we will have many games like that.

Lets hope for sunshine tomorrow!

GO TWINS!

Pavano! or 2-1

Pavano started a little rough just like Blackie and Scotty but he didn't give up any runs. Got into a little trouble loading the bases but worked his way out of that too! Think it always is helpful to the pitcher when his team gets some runs on the board. Seems to me all three starters so far have looked good, when they had problems they were able to work out of it. I know its early but everybody looks really focused.
JJ hit another dinger...what has GoGo done the last few nights? GoGo is batting .333 he is 4 for 12 all four hits in game one one double & a home run. He also has a stolen base. JJ has two HRs. Don't know what gogo has done defensively but the play JJ made in the 9th was awesome!!

Have we ever played the Angels this tough! I know Morneau has never hit like that against them! Two homeruns in two games!?! WOW! Go MorYES!!!!

This fun!!
GO TWINS!!
