It has come to this...

That's Carl Pavano. The Twins traded for him today. He's probably better know by his nicknames...American Idle and Glass Joe. He's also known as one of the guys who has dated Alyssa Milano.

On occasion, he pitches. Back in the day, he won 18 games for the Florida Marlins and then signed a gigantic deal with the Yankees where he fell apart faster than that suit I bought at the Men's Wearhouse. If we were living in 2004 and the Twins acquired Carl Pavano, I would be giddy. It's 2009 and it will take a lot more than that to get me excited when it comes to the Twins.

But...it can't get much worse for the hometown 9 -- at least Pavano could eat up some innings over the next couple of months. Or he could get hurt during his first start as a Twin this weekend.
