Twins sign Radke...Thank God!!!
Could have been a rough year if they hadn't. Hopefully they can come to an agreement with Coskie. Then they can trade Jacques Jones for another decent starter. Things look good though, Cleveland hasn't made any moves, White Sox are imploding...and the Tigers are getting better, but not quite there yet...looks like another Central Division title for the Twins if you ask me.!!!

1. *sigh* he doesn't even mention the Royals
If the starting pitchers AND the guys replacing the starting pitchers can avoid getting hurt, then maybe we can have a decent season. Congrats on re-signing your guy. That's a real problem for both our teams.

3. Sorry...didn;t mean to slight the Royals
I always root for small market teams like the Twins and the Royals...they seem to have the deck stacked against them usually. I just haven't heard anything from them this off-season...have they made any moves ?

2. no kidding

Next year's rotation without Radke would've looked a little shaky. I'm not expecting the Twins to get much for Jones, if they're able to trade him at all, because other teams know the Twins are unlikely to resign him, so he could become a free agent in a couple weeks.

4. They overpaid by nearly 2 million, IMO
But that is kind of the way things are going with FA pitching this offseason so I can't really get on them too much.
