And That, My Dear, is Understatement

Batgirl neglected to post article from the PiPress about the Twins' reactions to the steriod to-do, but, as Goober says, a lot of it is pretty priceless:

While the trend of steroid use in baseball is a fairly recent phenomenon spanning the past decade or so, by most accounts, it seems to have largely sidestepped the Twins' organization. Twins physician Dan Buss, who conducts player physicals during spring training, said he doesn't recall signs of use among players he examined during that span.

"Probably very few people (with the Twins) have been steroid users," he said. "In baseball, I don't think steroids, other than in a power-hitter role, are really an effective drug, and most people understand that. Historically, we haven't had a lot of power hitters."

And who knew Kyle Lohse was our rep now? Better than Lyle, that's for sure...
