Metrodome Memories

With the Twins entering their sophmore season at Target Field, they also hope to win the AL Central again, and are making moves to do so. Left-hander Franscisco Liriano signed a one-year, $4.3 million contract with the Twinkies. Liriano was last season’s American League Comeback Player of the Year, going 14-10 with a 3.26 ERA. After Liriano’s elbow injury that many thought would swallow his career, the long road to recovery seems to have paid off. He missed all of the 2007 season and his 2008 recovery stint numbers were average. In 2009, Liriano recorded a personal best of 8 straight winning decisions helping the Twins to reach the AL pennant. If Lariano can remain healthy this season, the Twins look to have the starting rotation with the most depth in the AL Central.
