  1. I am noticing that the camera operators are doing their best to limit crowd shots in this game. They can't help it when they do a close up of Ervin Santana because there's a big empty bunch of seats in the background... I wonder if they have ten thousand in the stadium.
  2. Snell looks like a good young pitcher to me. Rays seem to draft and develop one good pitcher after another.
  3. He must love living in Tampa. Tons of cocaine there, that's all I've heard about it...
  4. Sano clearly is overmatched in most of his AB's right now. He's also been playing lousy third base. A few weeks in Rochester might clear up both of those problems. I'm not saying he will face mlb level pitching in AAA. Part of his getting better will be discussing his hitting plan with different coaches, and then getting his confidence back by smashing some baseballs. The main difference is that the AAA games don't count against the Twins W/L record. That takes some pressure off Sano, which hopefully will allow him to implement the changes.
  5. Well, that's how you pitch Miguel Sano: 1. Low and outside, swinging strike. Now Sano feels like an idiot early. He's gonna be careful not to - 2. Called strike, middle in. - to look like a fool again. Whoops, probably should have swung at that one. This time... 3. Swinging strike three, inside in the dirt. Rinse and repeat, over and over. This is the main reason Sano needs to spend a few weeks in Rochester. Pitchers have discovered a sequence to get him out. Outside low, inside high, inside low in the dirt. He's really a sucker for the low inside dirt pitch with 2 strikes.
  6. Dang, and he so humble...Max everything.
  7. I do not see Milone's value as a bullpen guy. His game is finesse, not anything overwhelming. Maybe as a change of pace guy, or a long reliever?
  8. Ha! i guessed 108.5mph. Missed again. ;-(
  9. Dang, just the number of hissing line drives is awesome today.
  10. Mauer's been watching Kepler's swing. Boom.
  11. I'm guessing Kepler will just try to stroke a single this time up. He's not a hot dog.
  12. I was going to say, D-San now appears to be in his 2.0 version, too. He no longer looks super anxious, like he's waiting to be cut or sent down any minute. He's also developed some torque with his body. He turns his belt buckle to lead the swing, so he's added much better pop when he connects. Fun to watch him rip liners to the outfield.
  13. Wow, what a play by Dozier to end the inning. It's nice to see how good professional athletes can be.
  14. Best part of Kepler's big night could be that Berrios can now fly under the radar, totally relaxed.
  15. Disagree with Roy on the golf club. Your 3 iron is supposed to go higher than that.
  16. Okay, based on my previous two guesses, I'm calling that Kepler blast 108.5mph. Gradually calibrating my speedo....
  17. Berrios is starting to believe... maybe he is The One... ;-)
  18. Maybe if the Twins can get Target Field zoned as a church, they can stop paying property taxes! Then they can lower ticket prices!!
  19. Once Berrios really relaxes, his stuff is going to make some hitters look silly.
  20. And the AC unit is under Hrbek's shirt! ;-)
  21. Twins are dogging these guys! Fanabulous!
  22. Good lord, Kepler really does drill those low inside fastballs. Ball must be leaving his bat at 108mph. Line drive homers. Like a 2 iron.
