News:

After a Rather quiet off-season, the Twins look as good as ever with the Signing of 3B Joe Crede. The new deal which is worth 2.5 Mil Base Salary but has the potential to get the slugging Crede 7Mil in Incentives, these start once he reaches 250 or more at bats. The Twins are hoping that this will motivate Crede to stay healthy, after being plagued with back problems.

My Analysis: This move gets the twins what they needed most this off-season, a power bat. Better yet he bats right and will not have to face the Baggie in the Dome. This also makes the twins more like the standard AL team, with power at both corners of the Infield. The irony in all of this is we are hoping the man who ended our 2008 season with a HR off of Blackburn, will help take us to the world series in 2009.

Joe Crede signs with the Twins.
