I know the percentage of right vs left is present, but Gordon has had far more at bats recently at the MLB level.  Gordon is much faster that Astudillo, and I think Gordon has a higher on-base IQ.  I

IF, if Rooker does not pull a one year flashamatic season like Cave did; It would be great if the Twins could get Nelson back next year and have him, Donaldson and Rooker as a Bomba squad.

Sano could teach a class on making the third out on the bases

I was at a Twins game when Sano made the last out of the game at third base in a game the Twins lost by one run. He doubled to right driving in a couple runs, but the big man tried to make third and was a dead duck.

Duff spoiled Pineda's pristine line. Bummer. What else to expect?

What's the over/under on Pineda going to Padres tomorrow?

I kinda like Sano being aggressive, but it seems like he vastly over-estimates his speed on the base paths.  Weird really....

Was that an early 2016 game? I seem to remember something like that. He was hustling trying to make a play but the freelancing cost the game.

Sounds about right. I do remember that I was in the third base stands with a great view of the play.

Sano is 25 lbs from being a fast base runner.

How many pounds shy of that classification is Josh Donaldson? That slow roller had me expecting a closer play at first.

He's not pounds shy, he's legs shy. ?

It's too bad Donaldson rubs some people the wrong way.  He's a pretty good player, but a little bit abrasive.  He needs to adopt the 'bobble head syndrome'.

Wish more guys were "abrasive" on this team, nothing wrong being competitive....
