    11 k's! Wow. I love having a good pitcher on our team. Not really sure how to react.

    I really like seeing Berrios pitch inside like he's doing tonight. Excellent.

    I like double plays. I like it when our pitcher throws about 10 pitches per inning. I like beer.

    Sorry I'm late! I like Berrios throwing inside. Make those guys think twice!

    Thank goodness someone brought up Brussel Sprouts. It reminds me of the time my dog got into a fresh bag of them I had bought from the farmers market in Minneapolis. He ate them all and went outside for the next three hours being sick. I didn't let him back in the house until morning. All the grass died the next day.

    I'm leaving my office now to go sit in my truck to listen to the rest of the game. Don't need people hearing me yell and scream...Actually they are used to it.

    That is a completely wrong approach to the day. It's Monday and the Twins are playing an afternoon game. Blow off work and have a beer.

    I think Lance Lynn is gonna be motivated. Love it! Just like good hitting begets good hitting, good pitching begets good pitching. I bet Lance is chomping at the bit.

    Nice write up Nick. You articulated in prose exactly what I was thinking too. Rosie can hit and has huge power behind his swing. I remember reading somewhere a number of years back that some senior people within the Twins organization thought Rosario was their best hitter in the minors. Molitor did spend a lot of time with Rosario during the minors and they built a close relationship. Obviously Molitor is a believer batting him 4th. On the flip side Molitor had Polanco batting 4th last year as well. It would be interesting to get Molitors thoughts on the 4 slot. He does some interesting things with lineups.

    I couldn't agree more. This offense is gonna be potent! I went through the whole potential lineup and I wouldn't want to pitch through it. Couple of thoughts: 1. Half the guys are 25 years old or younger. I don't think they care who is pitching against them. I see little fear from the young guys after what they did last year. They have a ton of confidence. 2. The veterans are motivated too. Oh, and they are good hitters. Mauer, Dozier, LoMo (one great year I know) but probably wreaks of confidence after last year. 3. The bench. Not mediocre. Escobar did more than ok as a back up at 3rd to Sano. Grossman can get on base. 4. Home runs. This will be fun to watch. The numbers in this category could get ridiculous. These estimates are not unreasonable. Dozier 30, Buxton 21, Kepler 24, Rosario 29, Escobar 18, Sano 30 (with a 30 day suspension and healthy), Castro 17, Mauer 12, LoMo 29, Polanco 12, Grossman 5, Misc players 5. 232 total. Seems reasonable to me.

    Tom - great article. Much appreciated and some great info in there too! Thank you. It may be a high bar but thats why they have bars. It's spring training, lets dream big. Maybe the kid turns into a real superstar. Why not?

    I dont think Dozier is saying he doesn't want to be a Twin any longer. In fact, I interpret the comments to mean he would like to stay. He's a great ball player and leader in the club house. Hope he stays but I get it. If he can pull an extra $5mm + or more a year for his services elsewhere good for him. More importantly, what really gets me excited about Dozier is that he will be a free agent next year! If anyone is going to work extra hard and pull out all the stops, this will be the year for Dozier to do it. I'm betting this could be his best year as a Twin. As you mentioned in a previous post he will be 31. Regression does eventually take hold. As my tag line says, "on a long enough time line the survival rate for everyone drops to zero". Go Dozier!
