I agree with you about

I agree with you about covering the Twins and their presentations, et cetera. Complaining rarely gets results anyway. Those who are widely regarded as some of the most talented photo journalism professionals in the state might not be using their talents best while they are shooting pomp and circumstance.

Too, at the Strib, those ceremonial-type photos rarely see the light of day. As a photographer, you might want to shoot something that runs in the paper or on the Web. Otherwise, it feels like a waste of time. So the challenge to the photographer is to catch, at the very least, an interesting look on someone's face.

I am looking forward to seeing what Carlos can do baserunning.

And Mathias...if your JOB was going to Twins games and taking pictures...I think you could handle the boring presentaions. How could you complain when your job is to go to Twins games every day.

Hunter was a treat to watch

Hunter was a treat to watch in CF, but it's all about Carlos Gomez now.

He's the man. He's the present.

Torii who?

Lew got it done again last

Lew got it done again last night....I still don't think he is a major-league quality player for a contending team though.

All they needed was Lew Ford

All they needed was Lew Ford to turn things around.

-Yes that was sarcasm.
