Scruffy United States	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #1 Feb 20, 2008 We will see... So Phil is "the guy" they got for Johan? He sounds like he has a good head on his shoulders. I just hope he AND Fransico both come back from TJ.
Call Me Stupid United States	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #2 Feb 20, 2008 wasn't there reports that his volocity wasn't back? If he was hitting 95 enough to mention it, how hard was he throwing b4?
Dave AOL	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #3 Feb 20, 2008 Having read some previous posts about Humber, I come away thinking this is a kid with his head and his arm on straight. I, too, hadn't heard about Humber reaching 95 last season, but if true, it's another encouraging sign. The foursome we received for JS is pretty young but brimming over with talent. For a trade that had to be made, I'm confident it'll turn out better than we could have ever hoped.

Doogles Albert Lea, MN	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #9 Feb 20, 2008 So..tell me, Dave Anderson, how many years have you been a pitching coach to know some elbow angle isn't correct????
Abner DoubleDay San Francisco, CA	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #10 Feb 21, 2008 Humber sounds humbel...unlike the greedy SOB we traded away. Maybe the Twinks could have got more...but the "cy" forced the trade and it's too early now to say the Twins shot shafted... Let's see what these kids can do before we say the trade was the worst ever made.
