    Also, is it just me or is the strike zone a bit of a moving target today?

    Love the game within a game BINGO. I was a bit surprised to not see a "downward plane" square.

    Rosario will be fine...everyone calling for him to be sent to the minors, your hair is on fire...stop it. He's a really good major league player who plays very aggressively both on offense and defense. It's April...simma down! Last year, the Astros didn't have a winning record until April 29th. We have a really, really good team. I am concerned with Hildy, he hasn't looked right compared to last year. I'm not concerned about Morrison other than to think he might be pressing a bit.

    It's the first place Minnesota Twins vs. the first place Houston Astro's...a clash of the Titans!

    Uh boy...George. This thread just took a turn. Queue the music.

    I kind of feel like one of the Joe's here but what would a wild Siberian tiger on your wedding day be? Answer: One hell of a honeymoon. Nice job RB as always and I am in concurrence with the Hildy assessment. I watched him in spring training and something doesn't look right. Last year, his breaking ball had more snap on it. This year it seems to spin like a frisbee and just get smacked. Also, I remember him changing arm angles every now and then, but I haven't seen that yet this year.

    Kind of a tough luck day that reminds one of the fickle nature of baseball. Bleeders and doinks fall while rockets get caught.

    A couple of notes. As much as I look forward to guys like Dozier and Sano coming to the plate, it seems like every guy we send to the plate has the possibility putting it into the seats or getting a big hit. That's what makes this team fun to watch and there are guys that haven't even hit there stride yet. This is a really explosive offense that is starting to consistently take quality at bats. On Gibson - yesterday the laws of probability didn't catch up to him. He was in a precarious position a lot, but the Mariners left a pile of guys on base and the 2 runs in the first were the only damage in what could have been an early blowout. While the defense didn't exactly help him yesterday, Gibson isn't exactly helping himself either. The lead off hitter was on base frequently yesterday, the 6 walks in the previous start. Those are bullets that Gibson has been dodging. He'll have to improve or eventually, those bullets will get ya.

    I took a bigger picture approach to the bunt. I thought it was a smart move this early in the year. If you show early on that you can and are willing to do it, then the odds are that will be reflected on the scouting reports and teams will be less likely to employ the shift as the year goes on.

    It's not about them Mike. It's about me and my Twins. I don't like cold weather baseball. The Twins don't like cold weather baseball. It's the price they should pay for living in a warm weather city.

    I like the idea of starting off in division so that the games can be made up easier on a later date. I also like the idea of scheduling to warm weather home games early on (TB, HOU, TX, ARI, LA, ATL, etc, and I like the PR games as well). It wouldn't even bother me to have them play in warm weather environments in the south similar to the PR game. Bottom line is that I hate cold weather and therefore, I hate cold weather baseball.

    I'll take .667 on the road and .600 at home!
  13. gocgo
    I think we need to get used to close losses and competitive games. With the talent on this team, I see us battling in every game. I think we will have some blowout wins and some tough, tight losses. Remember, if you go .500 on the road and .667 at home, you are having a great year.

    Discipline Buxton discipline!

    Looks like he is swinging out of his shoes. Maybe the #4 spot has gone to his head a bit.
  16. gocgo
    The batters have no idea where the ball is going and neither does he.
  17. gocgo
    I believe we now have the Zach Duke experience to go with the Fernando Rodney experience.
  18. gocgo
    I still like our odds.
  19. gocgo
    First hit for Morrison as a Twin!
  20. gocgo
    Yup. Outside of him, they are thin.
  21. gocgo
    Now it's getting interesting. Bucs bullpen is not good.
  22. gocgo
    Bad at bat by Rosario.
  23. gocgo
    Wow! That is a tight strike zone.
  24. gocgo
    OK, boys, let's get to the Pirates bullpen and get back into this thing.
  25. gocgo
    I'm guessing the end result of all the shift happy defenses is that guys will have to improve their bunting skills. At least that is my hope.
