Run differential is a good indicator. And it says the Twins aren't a 1st place team. xFIP says the Twins have the one of the worst staffs in the league. Stats don't lie. And two starters that are good but have overachieved to an extent says regression is on the way.
Yeah but as good as Berrios and Santana have been, they are due for regression as well. They can't supressing keep hits without spiking their strikeout totals.
I'm guessing by the end of this series, we will be talking about who to SELL, not who to buy. This team isn't one pitcher away. It's a whole bullpen plus 1 good starter away.
No, this year is still about development. Polanco has improved his defense and cut down on his strikeouts. The hits will come, he is just in a little slump.
There still isn't any good fits outside of the Dodgers. It will take a season ending injury to a 2nd baseman by a good team to garner interest in Dozier.
He seems to have no idea on what pitchers are trying to do to him. Plus he is trying to pull everything. Once he gets down in the count he should just look to hit the other way. Especially facing a righty with a slider.
