Cuddyer


If they avoid atrocious outfielding, Twins could win division

Boy, oh boy. The Twins are hot.

So I hate to be the downer during a nice, little season that we're having, but I'm going to do it. This has to be said. I apologize in advance.


Twins non-tender Tyner

Goodbye, Jason Tyner. The Minnesota Twins reserve outfielder was not tendered a contract for 2008, making him a free agent.

Tyner batted .286 last year in 114 games, and he was capable of playing each of the three outfield positions. But the Twins' outfield is clogged. Craig Monroe, Jason Kubel, Michael Cuddyer, Delmon Young, and possibly Jason Pridie are ahead of Tyner.

Kubel was offered a contract and is eligible for arbitration.


Does Cuddy deserve Gold Glove?

Michael Cuddyer's improvement in the outfield might just be one of the brightest spots of a dark Minnesota Twins season. He might just deserve a Gold Glove.


Trading Twins


Call him Cuddy -- or just The Arm

I've long said that Minnesota Twins right fielder Michael Cuddyer is far from the team's best fielder, but I've never denied his arm. 


After 3-1/2 hours, Twins are still playing

Hey, at least after 3-1/2 hours, they're still playing.


... and Cuddy makes another baserunning gaffe

If he was dead, Rod Carew would be turning over in his grave right now. Rightfielder Michael Cuddyer made a second key baserunning gaffe already this season.


Happy opening day!

I love hotdogs in the morning.


Not a Cuddyer fan

I'm only going to say this once: I am not a Michael Cuddyer fan.
