Worley’s response was that he had not been quite comfortable throwing this particular pitch.

Repping a less than stellar.189/.279/.243 batting line through his first 44 plate appearances, the Twins’ second baseman has been extremely inoffensive and has statistically continued where he left off d...1378Fri, 19 Apr 2013 14:14:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/series-preview-twins-white-sox-419-r1377/After having two games postponed and a scheduled day off in the last week, the Twins look to pick up where they left off against the Angels and carry their two game winning streak into US Cellular Field to face their division rival, the Chicago White Sox.   Joe Mauer was on fire against the struggli...1377Fri, 19 Apr 2013 12:04:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/international-signing-preview-r1376/Over the course of the last week or so, a lot of news regarding the International Signing Period has come out.
