Here's one just for one: Who was the last Minneota Twins player to be named
American League MVP? Winner gets one free drink payable only within the
city limits of Minneapolis.

McKinley was a minor leaguer in the Diaz trade, right?  If so, I don't
think you can bid on him, as he went right to the minors and was never on
the Texas ML roster.

 Gang:

   These moves may not get posted until Wednesday night, so I wanted to
 provide a list by team of the winning bids (and the nightmarish "next
 closest bid" in parenthesis).  Also, there is a problem we did not discuss
 that needs to be resolved.

 Hoosiers:  R. Rodriguez - 9 (none); E. German 14 (14) -- see note below.

 Winick:  J. Cabrera -16 (10)

 Klein:  C. Silva -20 (8); D. Osborne -12 (none); R. Barajas - 8 (5); G.
 Knotts - 5 (none)

 Brats:  T. Perez - 19 (15); D. McCarty - 15 (none)

 Nukes:  S. Pond - 12 (none); C. Durbin - 6 (none)

 Bombers:  E. German - 14 (14); J. McKinley - 7 (none)

 Red Hots: T. Laker - 5 (none); M. Scutaro - 10 (none)

   As you can see from above, there was a tie for the winning bid on
 Esteban German, and there are no "prior weeks' stats" against which to
 break the tie.  Suggestions on this issue, in which I have an interest,
 are invited.

   Also, Bombers bid on J. McKinley; I am unclear if he was available to be
 bid upon.

   I will monitor messages throughout the day to determine what to do with
 all these.
