What the hell are the Twins trying to accomplish this off season? Bill Smith must be on freakin crack or Carl Pohlad is reaching out from beyond. Another BIG signing today...Jason Freakin Kuebel. Talk about a huge let down from the hype that accompanied him from AAA. He was supposed to be the slugger before Morneau showed up. He was supposed to be the young gun, face of the franchise before Joe and his bluest blue eyes donned the #7. I am, needless to say, less than thrilled to see this signing. The only thing that I can see happening is Denard Span getting the shaft back to AAA. I don't think that they will crush the petite, fragile psyche that is Carlos Gomez. And neither of those things is good for the ball club. Do we really need to pay a freakin light weight hitting DH $2.5 million plus?
Then, to add on top of that monstrosity, the front office's answer to the joke that was middle relief is either Brandon Lyon or Eric Gagne. Lyon was pitching in the National League and mediocre as a middle reliever and closer. Gagne had the wrost year of his career last year and just wow, I can't believe this is where we are headed.
