Torii Hunter believes that the Minnesota Twins will miss him more than Johan Santana this season, according to the Star Tribune.
"Yeah, well, you know for me, I think pitchers give you one game, that's it," Hunter said Sunday at the Metrodome. "Pitchers give you one, that's it. So you miss Johan; Johan, he's going to win one game for you, but the other four, it's somebody else's turn."
"I think they'll miss a position player before they miss a pitcher. So, you're going to miss Johan, but I think they've got four or five pitchers out there -- you know, Scott Baker and other young guys, but they have so much talent, and I think that's going to be key for those guys, is pitching. Hitting, I don't think they're going to have a problem at all."
