They should be 1st in pitching, and their hitting has been better than recent years.

Look at their division. With the World Champion White Sox, the contending Indians, and the somehow best record Tigers, how do you look good? The only weak team in the division are the Kansas City Royals, and they are barely a team. Plus, they lost Jaque(sp?) Jones. I think that if the Twins were in a different division, they would look much better than they do now.

Cheap owners. Lousy stadium. Poor pitching (except for Santana and Nathan).

Because they haven't traded Torii Hunter yet- Hunter is good and would bring in some decent young talent for their ball club- they need a solidified power hitter.

They suck because they're in the same division with the defending w/s champion WhiteSox and the upstart Tigers.

Small market team that has problems spending money to keep players in Minn. Players like brighter lights and bigger cities..
