1) We would love for the Twins to make a move sometime soon to add a starting pitcher and probably somebody for the bullpen. The idea of adding a Cliff Lee or Roy Oswalt is nice, but giving up 2-3 top-level prospects for a rental pitcher isn't something that we would be willing to do. There was a rumor yesterday floating around about the Twins having interest in Jonathon Papelbon and/or 3rd baseman Mike Lowell. I would take Papelbon, but I would rather have Danny Valencia hit 9th and play 3rd this year and several years into the future than take on Mike Lowell and his aching back. The guy I would really like to see in a Twins uniform is Dan Haren. He's probably available and the price would be right. Hopefully the Twins take a long look and can swing a deal with Arizona.
2) Enough with the World Cup already. I am trying my hardest to understand soccer and to not be a complete American idiot when it comes to the event. I obviously haven't been paying all that much attention because I just learned this morning that they are playing in South Africa. I thought they were playing in Europe. Yup. That about sums it up. But I am hoping we do well - Go USA!
3) Best "find" of the last two weeks -- David Sunflower Seeds -- the "Ranch" edition. Best seeds ever.
