Best of luck Alex.

Now this is the kind of success story the Twins need. Fresh face; fresh start; young humble, but teachable guy.

Let us hope he's ready to enter the rotation by the time Gardy finally realizes what most of us already know Pavano, Marquis, and Blackburn all stink!

Good luck to another "pitch to contact" guy. The Twins love them. Baker, Slowey, Pavano, Blackburn, the lsit is endless. Let's hope this year the Twins use all those wonderful draft picks on some power starting pitchers and some position players, especially outfielders, who hit with power.
