Castro and Santana are likely to be the only two players with enough plate appearances to qualify for the batting title. But on the baseball-reference.com page, it seems almost a certainty that Castro will not appear as a starter.

80% of how I consume Twins games is on the radio. Which sadly, means I have to put up with motor mouth Attebury, which absolutely blows.

So on the rare occasion that I can watch a game with Cory, it’s always special 

I'm more like at 90 percent radio.

Atteberry hasn't particularly grown on me, but the biggest win of the radio season has been that the "regular" color guy seems to have had a lot more days off this year. Hopefully that's a sign of things to come.

Yes, the regular guy needs to ride off on his Harley into the sunset!! Thanks for the memories, but let’s get back to someone that has a grasp of the English language!

I thought Vazquez got that one. Damn!

Was just looking at the numbers on Lee. His swing did not look like it should have been a homer, especially a 409ft one. It looked like a short swat swing, 69.3 with 99.1 ev.  409 seems like a long way for 99.1.

Would love to see some spin data, Lee seems to get optimum carry on his ball.

Wait, what,  so are you saying analytics can be wrong sometimes??? Stop the presses…. alert Rocco’s computer!😀

I just don't think any of the SRBr guys must be golfers.  The statcast average distance for 99 mph and 28 degree launch angle is 376 ft for 65 events.  No telling what the Twins use.

If we can measure slider spin rates the exit spin rates should be available too. 

Almost every golfer knows what spin does to distance on a driver.
