Instead of the usual stubborn outrage we often see in today's athlete who gets cut, third baseman Mike Lamb showed class on his exit from the Twins, expressing embarassment for not having performed well and hoping that his performance didn't reflect poorly on the Twins executives who decided to sign him.
Sorry to see his veteran presence leave, but the numbers don't lie. Brian Buscher showed some good potential last year and he's living up to it in 2008. Maybe the answer was here all along, and he needed to see that he was replaceable to reach down and find his best game.
