Radke will be alright! If he stops giving up runs early and he gets a little run support he'll be about 12 to 15 game winner.

I honestly don't know why Radke is #1 in the rotation. Santana should be #1, he's are best starter, and i'd start him there above radke even tho radke has exp. I don't hate Radke i just don't think he has what it takes to be are #1 starter anymore. And Lohse forget bout it, he might be good in the bullpen but as a starter no way. i still say we have one of the top 3 starters in Santana, Radke and Silva(when healthy)

Yeah, we'll be ok! Things usually fall in to place in baseball. Teams can start out hot, but they fizzle (i.e. Indians last year)

does that work oppositely?

im a mets fan :twisted:

I really like silva and our bullpen is awesome. Move silva to #2 and radke to #3 and I would be happy. Santana is our #1 BY FAR. I could care less about radke's experience. All that experience does is give up a bunch of home runs.

Come on joe mays!

The Twins will be fine this year. The reason why Radke is #1 pitcher is because the other pitchers look up to him. He starts out slow and comes on strong. The first few games at the beginning of the season isnt all that important.

Is it just me or does the twins confidence rises when Santana pitches?

I'll be sure to check that site out! I've always been a Twins fan...since '65!...(That's when we got them on television up in Thunder Bay Ont.)...I'll never forget seeing them live at the Metrodome and win the first two games of the '91 series against Atlanta...It was great! Had dinner at Cafe di Napoli, then the ball game and then to the Solid Gold strip club til 3am! What a vacation!!!
