I tried to suggest in the post that White might just be another part of that "black hole" in the lineup anyways. If thats not clear, then I agree with you. Its no solution and all they need to do to contend is change a few things so that their offense isn't focused on three players.Nick M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05029328242185237902noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11215059.post-51045202496589912312007-07-23T10:20:00.000-05:002007-07-23T10:20:00.000-05:00The good news for Twins fans is he cannot be any w...<I>The good news for Twins fans is he cannot be any worse than Tyner, Punto, McDonald, Jones, or any other of the replacement-level bats the Twins have thrown into the bottom third of the lineup this season.</I><BR/><BR/>If White has a second half this year like his first half last year, he could easily be just as bad as Tyner, Punto, and Jones. I don't include McDonald because he's not even a replacement level bat. What makes this pill so hard to swallow is that with just a couple of moves, this team would be able to contend for a playoff spot. I don't see them making the postseason with their current roster, no matter how good the pitching is. One or two big right-handed bats could make a world of difference.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
