  1. I remember when Eddie Murray broke in with the Orioles. He was primarily the DH, while a veteran (Lee May?) played first primarily. Gradually, Eddie took over. The comparison isn't exact, but I would propose that Sano start about half of the games at third, with Mauer getting plenty of days off and Plouffe manning first in those days. Injuries also happen and the Twins would have coverage in such an event.
  2. They got a win in their red unis. If Pelf is superstitious, he probably won't go with them again, but I actually kind of like the way they look. When they were sporting the "reds" in Spring Training, I thought another team was warming up to play the Twins.
  3. Bremer saying it was an ugly game. It was an ugly half game, but they won the second half 3-0. Much more crisp than the last four and a half games.
  4. Boyer is older than Perk. C'mon Bremer.
  5. Zuke has hit a lot of weak fly balls this year.
  6. I'd actually bat him lower. He is a good base runner and high percentage base stealer. He could and should be able use his legs more hitting fifth or sixth.
  7. Vulture May in to claim another relief win.
  8. I guess I am willing to give up on Dozier leading off. The team needs his home run power lower in the lineup, but more so his OBP is down this year while the strikeouts continue. He had hit a number of multi-run homers, but has only hit solos since the All-Star break.
  9. The serious answer is that other teams recall guys with good stuff. I think an underreported story is the struggles of their hard-throwing minor league relievers. Many of us figured Burdi, Reed and Jones could be with the Twins or close. Tonkin throws hard but hasn't been able to hold a job in the Twins' suspect bullpen.
  10. Pelfry had nothing. He looked excellent last outing.
  11. Jack criticism of Mauer is barely veiled.
  12. At least Dick isn't calling for Dozier to bunt.
  13. They need to score a lot more than 6.
  14. You wouldn't think that bunch of no-names could score 4 in a week.
  15. Where is the all caps GET HIM OUT?
  16. This could be interesting real quick. Gomes seems to homer every series against the Twins.
  17. Another mistake and this could be a game again.
  18. For you youngsters, Terry Francona has been called Tito for most of his adult life because his dad, also a big leaguer, was known as Tito.
  19. This getting runners on and then driving them in could be a thing.
  20. And the Twins two best position players get doubles this inning.
  21. Mauer intentionally walked. I say again, "thank you Tito".
