Lift up the shirt, Woooo!!
Pitcher and Catchers report TODAY!!
Johan Santana is a bona-fide stud; no doubt the best starting pitcher in the history of the Minnesota Twins (no offense intended to Jack Morris). The problem for the twins is that after Johan, all that is left are question marks. The 2007 Twins starting pitching staff will likely determine if the Twins make the playoffs or not in the increasingly competitive AL Central. Boof Bonser, Matt Garza, Carlos Silva, Scott Baker, Ramon Ortiz and Sidney Ponson are likely the 6 pitchers realistically competing for 4 starting spots. If I had to guess right now I would say that Bonser will step into the #2 spot behind Santana, followed by Carlos Silva (#3), Sidney Ponson (#4), and Matt Garza (#5). This means that much of our hope lies in the arm of a man with a Ricky Williams legal history, Pat Williams belly and Serena Willams rack--Sidney Ponson. Hopefully Sidney is as hungry to make some noise in the division as he is to make some pancakes in his kitchen. It sounds like he is hungry to turn his career around, but baseball fans have been hearing this song from Ponson for a while now. Here are a couple links that talk about what Big Sid has been up to this offseason.
See any resemblance??
