That, I submit, was last August 25th when the Twins came back from being down big with an innane rally culminating in a blown save by the corpulent Robert Jenks of the hated Pale Stockings.

And then 2008 happened, and the Twins young buck starting pitching started to go ape and mature sooner than anyone expected. Fresh off such a surprisingly positive year, the Twins go into this winter with lots of hope, few free agents needing resigning, but also some big decisions with which to grapple.
