"I'll put our staff up to anybody's. Going into the season, it was the same old (stuff)... people thinking we would come in third or second place or whatever. Once everyone saw us (the 2004 Minnesota Twins) play this year and how dominant our staff was and how good our offense can be at times, people feel like we can do some damage in the playoffs." - Brad Radke on MLB.com (Mark Sheldon / October 3, 2004)
