for the record I beat him by 4 minutes! Hopefully Freddy can get another mile or 2 back on his heater. I like the move.

Or if Peterson's "troublesome" back gives out. Because he's, you know, carrying the team. And some of those guys are heavy.

Freddie gone, demoted, benched, DFA’d, whatever by July.

I pray he takes Linebrink with him.

For an experienced veteran guy making 1mil for average performance?

I’d imagine there’d be quite a market.

Even people who love it, hate it. Well, how else can you feel about playing baseball in a football stadium with plastic grass, a baseball-colored roof, an echo and a giant glad trash bags just beyond the fence? How else can you feel about going to the ballpark on a beautiful July day in Minneapolis - there aren’t many seasons in America as beautiful as Minnesota summers - and then finding yourself watching something resembling baseball in this dank building with all the romance of a bank vault. -Joe Pos on HHMetrodome

“We’re going to have a packed house,” Twins first baseman Michael Cuddyer said. “Maybe we’ll have a whiteout. Chicago last year had a blackout, maybe we’ll have a whiteout in the Dome.”
