  1. Bases drunk and one out. Gotta get something out of this.
  2. We have players to offer, but we won't offer more than other teams. And that's fine with me.
  3. Brooks Robinson gets Sanó on that. Maybe.
  4. I guess since it's a minor league contract we don't have much to lose. Let's see if he can do anything at all in AAA.
  5. There will probably be several other teams who will offer more than the Twins are willing to offer.
  6. The Nuñez-Mejía trade could be one that benefits both teams. It benefited the Giants last year and it's beginning to look like it could benefit the Twins for several years.
  7. Actually, my last note is not entirely correct. What I wrote is generally true, but it also depends on which part of the ball the bat makes contact with. There will be backspin if the bat hits the lower part of the ball (which will also increase the exit angle) and topspin if the bat hits the upper part of the ball (which will also decrease the exit angle).
  8. The swing plane of the bat and the trajectory of the pitch come into play. If the swing plane is more horizontal than the pitch trajectory there will be backspin imparted to the ball. If the swing plane is more vertical than the pitch trajectory there will be topspin imparted to the ball. The greater the angle between the swing plane and the pitch trajectory the greater the spin.
  9. I noticed the same thing. Now if it were a half inning sooner that would be the appropriate thing to say. Of course he wouldn't be warming then.
  10. That makes two runners you would have gotten thrown out at home this inning. Talk about a rally killer!
  11. Yes it was. Wait until the video is available and watch it. You'll see what I mean.
  12. I guess that makes up for the ladder ball in Fenway last week.
  13. Keep stringing those hits together, boys!
  14. It's a first baseman thing tonight, apparently.
