With the Twins offense and the A's pitching you might have a .500 team.

A's are almost as bad as we are....frightening!

Trade Liriano today while he has some value.

Two come-from-behind, late-inning wins followed by a dominant pitching performance? Who are these guys, and what have they done with the Twins?

Great, now it's going to take that much longer to get him out of the rotation. Couldn't they install some kind of in-ground grass covered people mover to help Anderson with all his trips to the mound?

I guess pigs really do fly. Nice clean win!

If it weren't for Willingham's success at the plate, the sweep could have been a lost series. But they did manage to put themselves into a position to win. So that is nice.

Well...how 'bout that!

Nice win today. Was at the game and let me warn you about being to excited about Liriano (as if you need to be warned). He didn't pitch as well as his line. Lots of balls the first few innings. That is a BAD hitting Oakland club.
