Immediately after Alexi Casilla's looper was caught on a dive in chilly Chicago to end Minnesota's magical 2008 season, attention turned to that one part of the Twins line-up that needed fixing.
Third base.
The club didn't necessarily require another Gary Gaetti, but it was clear that the need for someone with a solid glove and some pop, preferably right-handed pop was needed.
The most suitable fit seemed to look a lot like long-time Twins nemesis Joe Crede, but with his recent injuries and asking price it seemed as though the opportunity for a solution had come and gone.
Not so fast.
