Good article, but I'm a little miffed at (homer warning!) no mention of Joe Mauer. Post all-star break, he's hitting .331, he's OPSing .867, and his OPS+ sits at a pretty damn stellar 134. In fact, he's been pretty close to those numbers since his slow start ended around the end of April. Since May 1st, he's hitting .319, he's OPSing .851, and his OPS+ is 129. Guess Buxton isn't the only one who overcame a cold start. This is getting close to vintage Joe, and I for one am excited to see it.
