This just in, Morneau just suffered another concussion when he laid his head on his pillow.

10 million each year and no benefit? Maybe raise beer prices to10$ to make up difference?

Sounds like he is no farther along then last summer?

This is beyond "broken record" territory. Ya know, and water is wet.

Me and the other 24000 season ticket holders think Ryan is making the right moves. Let the whiners continue to whine - no one is listening.

I am so tired of hearing about the M & M boys recovering from injuries. Two years of that is too much. Trade them both.

The PiPress had a detailed piece on this two days ago. They have at least one byline Twins' story daily, all by paid journalists. Meanwhile, the Strib relies on Sid and the bloggers to patch it along with a couple entries a week.

Making progress??? Come on. This guy bumped his head on a second baseman's knee TWO years ago! And he's acting like he just took a running cross-check from behind into the end boards. What a wuss. Justin Morneau is an absolute wuss. I wonder if he'd have so many "concussion-like symptoms" if he didn't have a guaranteed $16M a year contract. Hmm. People need to remember how thick the human skull is. This guy...he's milking this thing for everything it's worth. What a wuss. What an absolute wuss.

Should be OK?? Just great. Sounds like a confirmation that the M & M boys will be out at least half the season again this year. And at maybe 50% the rest of the year.

Paul44 - We're all glad you're so happy, but the MAJORITY of fans who paid for the stadium and were lied to by the Pohlads, are not. When the crickets start chip'n at Target field this summer, lots of people will be listening......
