CWS fans seem a need to b**** about everything.  Look at the facts please.

KW used the bad rep stuff out SF to drive AJ in to a 2.25/1yr deal.  I did not know about the arbit eligible situation.  With that being the case AJ was in no position to ask for a multi-year deal.  He has that bargaining power next year & not this one.

 

All I know is this guy was a major factor in beating us when he was with MIN.  Now he's on our side at bargain prices.  Not bad for landing one of the best hitting catchers in the league.

 

The only think that bothers me about this is KW's comments seemed

to suggest the winning margin was 87-92.  Where did he come up with 92 wins?  I don't think 92 wins will beat the Twins for the div crown.  He's underestimating Santana, Radke, & Silva if he does.

 

92 was Minny's totol from last year.

 

2004    Minnesota Twins American League 92 70 .568 -    1,911,490

2003      Minnesota Twins  American League  90  72  .556  -  1,946,011

2002      Minnesota Twins  American League  94  67  .584  -  1,924,473
