torridjoe 48 Posted May 15, 2006 Two years ago I drafted Johan Santana, hoping he'd finally get a shot at the rotation that year. He did. This year I drafted Francisco Liriano, "Little Johan," for the same reason. woot! The 22-year-old Liriano is one of baseball's top prospects, and Twins fans have been eagerly waiting for his chance to start. A hard thrower whose slider has reached 90 mph, Liriano is 1-0 with a 3.22 ERA in 12 relief appearances and 32 strikeouts in 22 1/3 innings. Still have Johan, BTW.

Twinsdad 55 Posted May 16, 2006 Meh.....nothing suprising that you'd be picking a lefty. Can't even get away from politics in baseball. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just wish that Silva wasn't sucking so bad and it was Kyle ###### Lohse that got sent to the 'pen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
