  1. Smoltz must still be bitter about '91. Costas named a kid after Kirby Puckett. He should give us some love.
  2. Cron looks terrible. Could use some time off
  3. That last pitch was sick. Unhittable.
  4. Now Dick just said right heel for Cruz.
  5. Cruz had to sprint in his top gear to leg out that double. I hope he didn't strain a hammy or something.
  6. Littell went back down to make room for Garver.
  7. Twins team slugging percentage is .520. 62 players have/had higher career slugging percentages. Most of them are HOF sluggers. https://www.baseball-reference.com/leaders/slugging_perc_career.shtml Nelson Cruz isn't one of them. His is .518.
  8. I gotta get to Target Field. Everyone looks like they are having so much fun!
  9. Actual conversation from the booth (slightly paraphrased due to my weak memory) Dick: The Twins are on pace to score 923 runs this year. Many thought this team could score 800, but 923! LaTroy: If the Twins can keep up this pace they should be able to get to that number. Math must not be LaTroy's thing.
  10. I still hate the Brunansky trade. We traded a slugging corner outfielder for a 32 year old 2nd baseman. It turned out that Bruno's best years were behind him, but I think he would have had a better career if he stayed in Minnesota. Herr was washed up when we got him. MacPhail should have known better. I remember his quote when a reporter asked why he did it. He said , "Someone would have burned my house down if I traded Kirby Puckett." That team needed a 2nd baseman, but that wasn't the way to address it.
  11. The only middle infielders who are free agents this year are Manny Machado, Escobar, and a bunch of old guys whose best baseball is behind them. I'm afraid that our 2019 middle infield is currently in our system.
