Posted by Goober at June 16, 2006 09:37 PMIf I saw that face staring me down white I was at the plate, I think I'd go sit down without even taking a swing. He's so formidable-looking in that shot... intimidating....
Go Cisco! Congrats on the BOD honors, dude.
Still, again with the no Cuddyer? Man. No wonder he had a life coach at the AP, eh, Stacy?
Posted by: FordHoiberg at June 16, 2006 09:43 PMI'm glad we got the kid the win because he really earned it. Go Cisco! He may be making his next start against Clemens. Now, if only Boof can get the streak back to Johan...

Posted by: twayn at June 16, 2006 10:34 PMDear Ms. Holberg,
There seems to be some notion that there is an anti-Cuddy BOD conspiracy, but he has already had at least one BOD this season. The BODSHC is sure he would have more if only the Twins would manage to win whenever he hit grand slams.
Cool picture, Goober.
Sincerely,
BODSHC
Wouldn't that be sweet to trade for Dontrelle or Zito in July. We'd have 3 great lefties. I guess we need hitters though, but the guys seem to be doing better.

Dan -
I'm not even a Twins fan, but I have to ask you:
Are you out of your MIND?
Posted by: Lassus at June 17, 2006 02:08 AMJust got to keep working on it," Liriano said. "Keep getting better."
A frightening thought for baseball.
Just read the mlb game wrap. The above quote and statement is the best.

Posted by: margin at June 17, 2006 08:15 AMI am not here to quarrel about your BOD selection, as Liriano is the correct choice. But I would like to marvel at the inconceivable fact that the Chairman only has 4 BODs. The dude's hitting like .489 or something. I guess the nature of the BOD award is that it rewards flashiness and dramatics over quiet consistency.
I think Joe should get some kind of honorary "Boyfriend of the Month" award for his brilliance over the past 30 days.
Posted by: Andre at June 17, 2006 10:12 AMDear Mr. Andre,
It's true. In fact, Will Young found much the same thing in his WPA/MVP findings, which are only slightly more technical than the BOD.
