That's the best news we've heard. That puts him right on schedule. He's going to be used for them just like he's going to be used for us.

It's nice to see players get rewarded. I hope he ends up in Triple-A this year. He's put in his time.

Forget speculation. Let's talk about reality. People were talking about Brad Radke being traded seven years ago, and he's been with us for 11 years.

Almost any decision that I ended up making in the baseball part of our operation Wayne was involved in at some point.
extremely move people rare saw teams year
It's been an extremely rare year where you saw very little movement, ... I don't have an explanation for it. It was just one of those years where people didn't want to move players. I don't know if it was because more teams were in it, or what.

It's sad that it has ended this way. This is one of the saddest days in Twins history. Only 45 years old. . . . That's way too early.

It's tough to take. When you're around him, he makes you feel pretty good about yourself. He can make you laugh. He can do a lot of things that can light up a room. He's a beauty.

This opportunity to compete for the right-field spot might give Michael a chance to relax a little bit. It's been the opinion of those around him that he is better at the plate when he is in the outfield. This might be just the key for him.

building bunch days everybody five four game games gone guys haven hit home homer pitching profess share since stereotype stress teams tremendous won worry youngest
First off, we're always young. We're one of the youngest teams in the game every year. Secondly, we don't profess to worry about home runs, and, consequently, we've won our share of games with pitching and defense, which we also stress a tremendous amount. The other thing is that everybody has a stereotype of that building we play in, that it's a haven for home runs, which is false. It isn't a homer dome. Those days are gone ? since about '87 when we had four or five guys that did hit a bunch of them.
area team
There's nothing we can do about it. Every team is in the same boat. If there's one area we have depth, it's pitching.
anybody bullpen opposed pitching sitting totally
I don't think anybody is totally opposed to it. But it wouldn't be ideal. You don't want him sitting down in the bullpen and only pitching one inning at a time.
goal hear playing
I don't want to hear about him coaching. His No. 1 goal right now should be playing ? getting to Triple-A and then getting to Minnesota.
