Bob Collins, the Twins didn't do anything during the offseason because they didn't need to. Look at their rotation. Slowey, Baker, Blackburn, Liriano, and...

... Yes, I think the Yankees really should have cut their payroll. Oh, wait, they did. Um ... um ... San Dimas High School Football rules! Okay, that's flip,...
