great. Liriano and Span have been completely exposed. NO trade value whatsoever. Jimmy is going to have to buy some free agents. It's not s bad as it sounds. He's using taxpayer monet to buy them.pan

I think LIRIANO was to nervous tonightabout being traded.I just wish they would trade him and get it done with they should of traded him before tonight anyway.DEMPSTER is playing hard to get for ATLANTA so LIRIANO might be traded before DEMPSTER AFTER ALL.

WHY did they not trade him two weeks ago? Take what you can get. He will be lost next year as a free agent anyway.

along with another liriano meltdown, the twins' hitters were 0-14 with runners in scoring position. except for willingham, i don't think there is anyone on this team--including the manager--that anyone else wants....

Should have traded him years ago - beofre the surgery. How can you possibly let Konerko beat you? What's the deal? The Twins say we aren't going to let Konerko beat us (pregame show) and Frankie serves him a cookie.

I believe it just shows how much he loves being a MN Twin.

I like Liriano as a Player...Very Intense and always wants to do his best... Buttt there rrrr players that rrrr performance head cases... Yankees and Chuck Knoblach for example.... I think every team should employ a Shrink on retainer....Not because the players are overall mentally inept, Butt Pro Athletes, Like the Military or Cops on the beat etc, etc. could use an outlet for their ANXIETY about their performance or lack there of..... It couldn't Hurt....

Good teams find ways to win ball games. The Twins more times than not end up beating themselves. That's a reflection on how they are being managed in a game. There was no creativity from Gardo last night as usual with runners on base...same old crap...The Twins simply have now learned how to lose..and accepted it. That's all on Gardo.
