He was probably so giddy he even gets to pitch in the league to begin with. Why his guaranteed contract shouldn't be voided is what I'd like to know.

I just heard that the entire American League Hitters Association offered to pay any amount of money to see that he gets back to the mound as quickly as he can.

"Why his guaranteed contract shouldn't be voided is what I'd like to know"...Swarzak agreed to serve as an L-Screen until he can pitch again.

He'll recover and be just fine Ryan should have a two word lecture for him and the rest of these clowns, "Grow up!"

If swarzak recovers and is just fine the twins should start breaking a couple of ribs foe the entire staff....

The Twins have four professional hitters and the rest of the team is a collection of "Bump Baileys", including Mr. Swarzak (see "The Natural"). What happened to all the big talk about building a veteran roster with all the extra money a new ballpark would bring in? The revenue is there; but the roster ain't. Maybe Mr. Pohlad should have been allowed to relocate his team to Raleigh, NC. With an ownership that is unserious, why should journeyman players like Swarzak be serious? The laugh is on us!

LMAO...another knucklehead on a knucklehead team with a knucklehead owner and a knucklehead manager. Knucklehead Love would fit right in. BUT..nothing matters as this chump of a team isn't going anywhere. 80 loss season coming up.
