... games at each position. Then I took out the wins for the Twins top 5 starters and Nathan, since Slowey and Perkins combined for 187 innings.

... market], and we have choices internally," Smith said. "The best thing we can do is get [Kevin] Slowey, [Boof] Bonser and [Pat] Neshek back healthy. Those three plus [Glen] Perkins. If we can get those four back healthy, that's as good as any trade we can make, or any signing we can make."Slowey went 10-3 with a 4.86 ERA before undergoing season-ending wrist surgery.

... during the off-season. I have to believe that only three spots (Scott Baker, Nick Blackburn, Kevin Slowey) are locked down. • It sounds like Ron Gardenhire wouldn’t mind bringin back Orlando Cabrera as the team’s second baseman next season, but it seems highly unlikely the front office would follow through on that. • The Orioles claimed Armando Gabino off waivers. •...

... of taking Ron Gardenhire for granted are over. The Twins played half their schedule without Kevin Slowey and minus 2006 AL MVP Justin Morneau from September 12 forward. Minnesota went 17-4 in the absence of Johnny Canuck and caught the Detrot Tigers to claim a division championship to close out the Teflon Confines. Again, Gardenhire’s fifth Central title. Look, by no means am I suggesting...

While speaking with Joe Christensen of The Star Tribune, Twins' GM Bill Smith may have tipped his hand regarding the team's offseason plans. "We'll see what's out there," he said. "And if there's a veteran starter or two that's a good fit for us, then we'll proceed accordingly."
