Mientkiewicz *hearts* Twins

A warm, fuzzy story today in the New York Times featuring Dougie baseball:

TAMPA, Fla., March 14 — Torii Hunter thinks about a former teammate whenever he tucks his 11-year-old son, Torii Jr., into bed.

“He has a shirt he sleeps in every night, a Doug Mientkiewicz shirt,” said Hunter, the Minnesota Twins’ center fielder. “It’s an old Twins shirt with holes in it. He’s probably getting too big for it now, but Doug is his favorite. He played with him all the time.”

...
“That is by far the thing I’m most proud of, the fact that we, as a group, took a franchise that if you finish .500, they were going to give you a parade, and now it’s like, if they don’t win a series in the playoffs, it’s a failure,” Mientkiewicz said. “Before we got there, it was a dismal place to play, because they weren’t winning. We always felt that we were going to win, and we were going to win soon.”
