I got to read several papers in the country today as the writers were making predicitions in the paper. I notice lot of writers pick the Twins to win it all including Peter Gammons, ESPN's Jayson Stark, and Newark Star-Ledger baseball writer Dan Graziano. It's good to see the Twins finally get some respect by the media. Everyone has the Twins as AL Central Champs. It wasn't the case for the last three years. Everyone picked the Chicago White Sox for first place till they saw the light on that team. Last year, everyone had the Royals winning the AL Central. This year is a different story. Lot of people viewed the Twins as World Series contender. I think the Twins got the pieces to be really good, but like I said, Joe Mauer needs to be healthy and the 3-4-5 pitchers needs to be really good.

I am really glad that the Twins got some respect. I just hope the Twins don't follow the Timberwolves for falling in their face. I hope the Timberwolves season is a lesson for the Twins to play hard every night.

I am ready to hear the ump say "Play Ball!"

It should be a very good year.

Enjoy the season, Twins fans!

Yeah I read and article in ESPN magazine, i think it was by peter gammons, and it said that he thinks if mauer can stay healthy, and silva and lohse can pitch better, they can win it all. I just hope the Twins don't let the hype go to their head, and theyh treat this season just like the last 3, and they just play hard.

One thing the Twins dont do is let Hype go to there head. That is one thing this team does and that is just go out and play ball...

I think there's a big difference between winning the AL Central and winning it all. Either way, best of luck to all the Twins fans out there. I hope you have a great season.

Thanks a ton MudSnakes. Enjoy a old Twin out there with Koskie. He is a class act and a great guy to watch.
