Truth

It is about that time of year to remind people about my feelings toward the Yankees. I'm there, in the middle...

While I live with this feeling year-around, I'm most proud of it during baseball season. Cheers to a happy Twins season, Twins Territory!

Twins Spring Training

If you don't have a fire in your belly for spring training and the greatest sport known to mankind, consider this: Rich Anderson, the pitching coach for the Minnesota Twins, has already set the starting pitching for the Twins' first three exhibition games. Carl Pavano, Francisco Liriano and Jason Marquis will start the exhibition games 1, 2, and 3, respectively.

The Minnesota Twins, who struggled with, among other things, starting pitching last year, have 33 pitchers coming in to spring training. A couple of those guys have to be able to pitch... At least enough to round out the starting rotation.

If Scott Baker and Nick Blackburn are healthy, they'll round out the rotation, at least for the beginning of the season. Essentially that would mean Brian Duensing would go back to the bullpen, where he will join Glen Perkins, Joel Zumaya and Matt Capps. This is assuming, of course, that all of the aforementioned pitchers remain healthy and on top of their game... Or that their game is at least better than the next person's game.

Anderson spoke out about Matt Capps and his relationship with the mound and Minnesota Twins fans, "It broke my heart every time people booed him before he even got to the mound." I believe that fans didn't completely grasp what Matt Capps was going through last season, meaning that we booed him in ignorance. Which... is brutal. I also think there is a point to be made that Twins fans were so frustrated and disappointed in the Twins that it was easy to boo Capps because he was often at the transition point that led the Twins from a win to a loss.

Basically, the Twins have to play better this year. And Twins fans need to remain some of the most loyal fans in the MLB.

Minnesota says goodbye to Twins player Michael Cuddyer as he goes to the Rockies

It's a sad day for Minnesota Twins fans of Michael Cuddyer. It seems that now that (former) Twins player Michael Cuddyer has his own Twins, he doesn't need the Minnesota Twins anymore. His twin daughters were born on December 6, 2011, and on December 16, 2011, it was confirmed that Michael Cuddyer and the Colorado Rockies have agreed to a deal.

The Rockies Cuddyer deal is said to be worth about $31 million for a three-year free agent deal. Cuddyer has played on the Minnesota Twins team for his whole MLB career. He is a fan favorite, and very involved in the community. Michael Cuddyer was a first round draft pick in 1997. It's sad to see him go, but I wish him the best and would love to see him go on and get a ring for himself.

I long for the days when players would stay on one team for their whole career, it's hard to watch your favorites leave.

Good Luck, Cuddy, and maybe we'll see you in the playoffs!
