Shooter Now: What went wrong with new Minnesota Twin J.J. Hardy?

Butch Wynegar, the former Twins catcher, was J.J. Hardy's hitting coach when the new Minnesota shortstop came up with the Milwaukee Brewers in 2005.

That explains alot...thanks.

[Juiced]

Let's just hope he wasn't juicing to get those numbers in 2007 and 2008 -- and that he's a .220 hitter (with 5 home runs) when he's clean. I doubt he was -- but something doesn't quite seem right. Let's hope for a bounce-back year.

wait don't we already have a weakling .220 hitter? little nicky punto?

[Free Jeff Dubay]

lets get him back on the juice. MLB has McGuire back in St Louis. Any chance we can get Jose Canseco here?

Gardy and Vavra will get his head right.

Look closely at Nick Punto... he IS Stan Laurel so we now have Laurel and Hardy.

[end of green bush]

I like the last sentance. Maybe they will close down the green bush organization. that would be great.

Just look at Cuddy last year...let a man bounce back after a change of scenery...!!!

[SEC]

Not that Cuddy had a change of scenery.

[Ranta]

Punto's slugging percentage is 30 points higher than Gomez. This is a can't lose situation. If it doesn't work out so what?
