The season opener starts today as the Twins head to the Pacific Northwest to play the Seattle Mariners.
It's going to be tough for the Twins, but when you are a good team like the Twins, you always will open up against a very good team so the Twins finally arrived. Still I think the Twins are good enough to beat anyone so I hope they rise to the challenge.
Seatle spent lot of money this offseason as they signed Richie Sexson and Adrian Beltre to improve the offense. They also hired a good manager in Mike Hargrove as he tries to get this team out of funk. The Mariners haven't been the same since Lou Pinella left. Mariners are hoping Hargrove can be that aggressive manager that has been missing since Piniella left. I don't know if these moves are good enough to win the AL West. Their pitching has been rocked in ST.
Brad Radke goes up against Jamie Moyer this afternoon.
I wish I can watch the game, but I am working and I could not record the game since my cable company disconnected our service. I have a feeling we are going to be canceling cable since it's always been a problem.
