Yea, That'll Solve Everything

News Item: Twins sign pitcher Ramon Ortiz

I guess the idea is that Ortiz, who lost 16 games with the Nationals last year, will improve with more run support. This still leaves the Twins' potential rotation with one superstar (Johan Santana), three very questionable veterans (Carlos Silva, Ortiz, Sidney Ponson), and a bunch of kids (Boof Bonser, Matt Garza, Scott Baker, Glen Perkins.) Overall, I'm not enthused.

But, it could be worse. They could've signed Russ Ortiz.

Or Tito Ortiz. Sure, he can't hit, field, or pitch, but the Twins would never lose a bench-clearing brawl ever again. Plus, if he's still dating Jenna Jameson, having her in the stands would be good for attendance.

Just your friendly neighborhood White Sox fan looking out for a fellow AL Central brother.
