¡VIVA RIVAS!

Our friends at PAB (Pulling a Blyleven) found this. Compares favorably to the now classic "Chacarron" video , no? And that's not even accounting for the lead singer's uncanny resemblance to my paisano Dennys Reyes...ok, maybe not. But imagine his face on the singer's body. I PROMISE you won't regret it:

Here are a few great Twins trivia from ESPN's Jayson Stark:

Has any team ever had three different players take home an MVP (Justin Morneau), Cy Young (Johan Santana) and batting title (Joe Mauer)? And the answer is: Yes -- but only one: the 1962 Dodgers (Maury Wills as MVP, Don Drysdale as Cy Young, Tommy Davis as batting champ).

...Schilling has pitched at least five innings in 147 starts in a row. Not only is that the longest streak by any pitcher in the last 50 seasons, just two other starters even got to 100 -- David Cone (145) and Bob Gibson (112). Next-longest current streak: 91, by Johan Santana.

And finally, here's a great one about Jim Leyland and his fungo bat:

Finally, one of the great mysteries of spring training is why Tigers manager Jim Leyland carries a fungo bat with him all day long -- but not necessarily to hit fungoes. "He has that fungo just to work on his (golf) backswing," Tigers coach-humorist Andy Van Slyke told Spring Fever. "But if you notice, he never follows through. He's afraid he might shank somebody."

In case you missed it:

Keep an eye on this Royals prospect. Don't look now, but the Royals could actually win 70 games this year.

Kyle Lohse has moved from bashing in managers' doors with baseball bats to bashing in Torii's head with a baseball.

Quotes of the Day, David Ortiz:

--“Manny is still crazy I’m still babysitting him. Same thing.”

Ortiz said the offseason was difficult in his Dominican homeland because he has become so recognizable (Despite Julio Lugo’s assertion that he could run for president and win, Ortiz said he had no interest in being a politician because everybody hates you once you become one).

--“I always tell people that everyone looks the same to me in Japan,” Ortiz joked. “Which is cool, man because I wish we could be like that in the Dominican, so we can hide.”
