Wonder if all our young pitching talent will pay off in 2-3 years? (2010?)

Four more days. I must say I'm excited for Young and Gomez this year, and glad we've got Nathan for 4 more years. Not sure about pitching...

The Livan deal makes sense; we need some experience in our rotation. And he's not that old - only 32. Let's just hope he's not a Ponson.

Only good news: we didn't give Boston an unbeatable rotation, and won't see Santana in a Yankees uniform.

But we had to do something. It would be worse to lose Santana altogether and get nothing for it.

Looks like a weak trade to me. I'd much rather have Hugues and Melky. Really hope that 2 of the pitchers end up as long-term contributors.

Not sure about Everett - a good glove at SS goes a long way, but a sub-.300 OBP is just pitiful.

I'll miss Tyner. He was a likable guy and a decent hitter. I loved how hard he played during the '06 season (and his nearly .300 avg w/ MN).

the small "co" (3-for-1) include Jacoby but not Lester. The large "co" has now moved to 5-for-1, with Ryan Kalish (outfield prospect).

Two open offers: Lester, Crisp, Masterson, and Lowrie...or Ellsbury, Masterson, and Lowrie.
Which would you prefer?

I'd take pitching over batting any day, so the Hughes deal sounds more interesting than Ellsbury. Too bad Ellsbury + Lester isn't an option.

A week ago, I was furious at the trade rumors. Now I'll almost be disappointed if we don't trade 57 for 2 or 3 long-term contributors.

Despite the 6-6 record, they've really only had one bad game (34-0 vs. GB), a few sloppy losses, and a few close losses.

Today's game was a blast to watch. Good defense, good QB, and the best rushing I've seen in years. Peterson makes it look too easy.

Alas, poor Twins. Such a promising season, and such a sad ending. I just hope the Castillo trade isn't a curse that hurts us for years.

My family was at the game last night, and got there minutes after the collapse. Just glad they came in from the west, not the north.

2. we're moving Punto to 2nd and signing a 3rd baseman who can hit.

The only good angles I can see on the trade are: 1. we're saving money which will let us keep Torii, or

On the surface, the Castillo trade looks terrible. I, for one, like Castillo. He's the best leadoff hitter we've got.
