  1. What happened? I just saw on gameday that Willingham walked and Ben was caught stealing home?
  2. Speaking of that, Butera just knocked out a double.
  3. Do you think any GM would reduce his or her payroll for competitive reasons? GMs want to spend; owners want to save.
  4. Has anyone ever been put on the 15 day DL for a "Charlie horse"?
  5. How many runs has Revere saved with his glove tonight? At least 2, potentially 3 or 4. Also, it looks like Jeff Grey is our 12th inning specialist.
  6. Baaaatting Third: Drew Buteeeraa!
  7. Way to go. 3-run homer by Corey Hart. =P
  8. Plouffe gets bumped up in front of the DH. It's nice to see Gardy breaking up the lineup (M&M boys would be another example), even if it means moving veterans around.
  9. His slugging potential this season is much closer to his career average than his 2009 MVP season. Mauer has only hit more than 10 home runs in a season twice. That's not a power guy. He's been over .500 SLG twice in full seasons, but his career average is .468 SLG. Considering his current SLG numbers are only about 40 points below career numbers, I'd wait a bit to draw a causal relationship between number of games spent catching and power.
  10. Jeepers! I know he'll cool down, but he's leading the league in homers since June. Perhaps the most interesting bit is that if you mentioned Trevor Plouffe to non-Twins fans before this month, they would say, "Who?"

  12. Revere even held a runner or two from advancing to third base on a single yesterday. He may not have the arm, but he can charge the ball and make up enough of the difference to scare runners. Love Revere, I'm glad he's in the lineup on a daily basis because of a reason other than injury.
  13. What's Parmelee doing in the majors?
  14. I'd say all of the National League divisions are more competitive than the AL central right now. You might be able to avoid losing in straight games to the Yankees, but you won't get a free pass to the playoffs with 90 wins.
  15. Star Tribune tomorrow: "Another Sloppy Twins Win" I mean, they gave up 3 runs!
  16. That's a nice looking lineup. Hopefully Span and Mauer are ready to go. I just wish there was room for Parmelee.
  17. Revere's batting .326/.361/.424 and is 8/9 on stolen bases this year in 92ABs. Do you really need a lot more than that for a speedy OF lead-off hitter?
  18. Yup, plenty of lofty armchairs around here. Nice to see such an exciting W from the Twins (using my new MLB.TV subscription in Ireland!)
  19. How is Plouffe in center field, at catching, or on the mound? That's all he has left to complete his "fit".
  20. Wherever he plays, he is truly a joy to watch. Put your stats down and watch him tumble: http://mlb.mlb.com/video/play.jsp?content_id=21975557&topic_id=&c_id=min&tcid=vpp_copy_21975557&v=3
  21. in 31 ABs. Obviously, this is a small sample size. But, if he regains the composure he showed in his September call up, where and when do you see him fitting back in with the Twins?
  22. Wait, six shutout innings by Liriano? Say it ain't so! How many Ks?
  23. Nice gapshot by Mauer! A well-clocked ball.
  24. Butera showed some discipline at the plate. He took the first three pitches... for strikes.
