Around SBN: Shootings Near Thunder's Arena Follow Win Over Lakers

DL: What was it like for you watching the Rays this past season?

BH: It was fun. It was a little bittersweet, but it was still fun to watch. I actually got laughed at a little bit when I got over to Minnesota, because I said that team wasn't very far away because they had a lot of young talent and just needed a little more experience. I really thought they were pretty close. Not that I thought that they'd run away with the AL East, but I thought that for sure they'd be better. I was real happy for B.J. Upton, who had a phenomenal playoff series and kind of put himself on the map. I was happy for Carlos Pena, too, and for Joe Maddon.

Excellent.
DL: I can’t let you get away without bringing up that you were once compared, as a minor league prospect, to Albert Pujols.

BH: Oh, man. Let’s put it this way: If that was a diagnosis, I’d say, ‘Doctor, you were way off base on that one.’

Brendan Harris should be able to sleep well at night

knowing that his SS defense was SO bad that someone felt compelled to give MVP votes to Jason Bartlett merely because he had an average defensive performance there.

Vogt early, Vogt often.

BH was instrumental in us getting Garza...

plus, he was fun to watch during his year with the Rays. He may not cover much ground, but he can hit, much like another one of my faves, Cantu.

harris isnt even that great of a hitter

the 2 main pieces to that trade that the twins got are bench players, DY and BH

TB Rays in 09!!!

He had a hell of a year in 2007, you can't blame the Twins for thinking he might have some value at the plate.

Though that was augmented by an unbelievable crushing of Lefties in 07 that he didn’t have in 08.
