All i know is the twins need all the help they can get maybe steady eddie can see something that can help the pitchers.

I always loved Everyday Eddie. Nice to have him in camp for all the reasons stated above and then some.

Now maybe we will see some improvement. Gardy's pal Anderson doesn't have a clue. maybe Eddie could still pitch too...

Jim, it hasn't been nine years, because he came back for a second go-around with the Twins, albeit and short stint down the stretch in September of 2007 or 08?

Eddie had some great years in his prime. Hopefully, he can help out some of the Twins young pitchers.

"my last five years in the big leagues, I was pretty much throwing batting practice." the first 5 too, not to mention the playoffs. Great guy though

Eddie took to heart the Twins "Pitch to contact" philosophy that's killing this team today.

Poll: Should baseball expand instant replay?

Weekly Question

Yes, too many mistakes are being made
No, bad umpire calls are part of the game
