Oh, LNP.

In case you missed it -- and it's doubtful you did -- Nick Punto will officially not be coming back to the Twins. He has signed with the Cardinals for a reported $700,000 for one season. We suppose there is always the chance Minnesota will trade for him at some later date and sign him to a rich three-year extension. Alas, it doesn't appear that way now. So we ask:

1) What was your favorite Nick Punto moment?

2) What was your favorite thing about LNP? (Ours, indirectly, was this).

3) What individual will take his place as the most polarizing Twins player among fans?
