I can just imagine the Tigers and Indians hitters now, rubbing their hands with glee.

The first thing that came into my mind was that he discovered he had a twin brother.*

Then I realized what it was talking about. Is he really that bad? I remember him being alright with the Expos, Nationals, and even with the D'Backs.

I think it's a good pick-up for the Twins. Hernandez will provide some veteran leadership for a young staff while pitching his 200 innings.

Glad to see him out of the NL West.
