2009 Minnesota Twins

With the cut of Matt Tolbert today and with Scott Baker going to the disabled list this is your opening day Minnesota Twins. I see Dickey if he pitches good in Chicago staying as a reliever with Duensing going down but without any furth adieu here is the Minnesota Twins 2009 opening day roster.
C- Mike Redmond

ss- Nick Punto
3b- Joe Crede

  • Today, the Twins had their final spring road game in Bradenton against the Pirates and it ended up in a tie 4-4.
  • Kevin Slowey pitched his last start of the spring and was good as always going 5 innings and only giving up a run on 3 hits. His Spring ERA was an awesome 2.02. I really look forward to his season this year because I think he is in for a jump in wins and lower his era by a run.
  • The Twins were led by Brian Buscher who went 2-3 with a 3run homerun that put the Twins ahead. Michael Cuddyer also had 2 hits to pace the Twins.
  • Tommorrow the Twins host the Pirates in the final spring training game of the year as the Twins try to get to 20 wins for the spring. Glen Perkins will get the start for the Twins in Fort Myers. Gametime will be at 12:05.
