Twins Scrubs

Year after year, the Twins try to get by signing broken ass, washed up vets in the off season. The short list includes Rondell White, Ramon Ortiz, Sir Sidney Ponson, Tony Batista, Mike Lamb, and Adam Everett. True Twins fans even remember the mid-season acquisition of steroids user Bret Boone which lasted all of 14 games in 2005. I am as cynical as a Twins fan can get, but I really like my boy Craig Monroe. He is something the Twins have never had in an off season acquisition, which is a guy that has a chance to hit a home run in every at-bat. Here are his stats for this year, and they aren't terrible. He doesn't hit for a high average, which isn't his game, but he drives the ball out of the ballpark. Now if we can get 12 wins out of Livan Hernandez, we don't have to lump him with the all the other Twins scrubs...
