In his first full season at the major league level last year, he demonstrated outstanding contact. Of course, the catch was that his contact did not go anywhere. Revere would drive...457Fri, 25 May 2012 13:03:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/thursday-night-lights-r456/The debut of Cole De Vries was a game with several ups and downs. De Vries struck out Alejandro de Aza, the first batter he faced. He threw a scoreless first inning. Then in the second frame, AJ Pierzynski got him. He was charged with three unearned runs in the third inning after an error, a pop up...456Fri, 25 May 2012 06:36:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/a-sleeping-giant-awakened-r455/Early in the season, Justin Morneau looked a lot like he did last year at the plate. That is to say: he was tentative, consistently fooled by good breaking balls, and generally ineffective. At the end of April, he informed the team that his wrist had been ailing him for the better part of two weeks...455Fri, 25 May 2012 04:27:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/ampquotpurposeampquot-pitches-r450/Baseball is a great game. Almost every game has some sort of unique situation arise, allowing fans to try to get in to the minds of the players and managers.

The Twins knew that. And it failed. And they’re paying the price. And that price is a .192 batting average. That’s the combined batting average of whoever the Twins have played in right field so far. It’s last in the majors. Their combined OPS is .594...449Thu, 24 May 2012 03:20:00 +0000https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/teams-throwing-morneau-a-wrinkle-r447/Since his return to the lineup this month, Justin Morneau has seemingly been driving the ball to the opposite field not only better but also more frequently.
