If we haven't seen any fire outta Joe yet, I don't think we will. There's more than one way to be a leader. Joe just isn't a rah-rah guy. He is what he is in that department. And that's fine.
Wouldn't call it great news. Still unfortunate and disappointing to have even a accusation levied upon him. It will still take a long time for Sano to put this behind him. Whole situation, is as others have said, uncomfortable.
Kinley's opponent quality in spring training this year in 6.6. Or somewhere between High-A and AA type of opponents. So he's more or less dominating the competition he was playing against all of last year. https://www.baseball-reference.com/register/player.fcgi?id=kinley000tyl#pitching_st::none So while his numbers this spring have been encouraging and the 99 MPH fastball with a 90 MPH slider is sexy, I'm approaching his spring training numbers with some extreme cautious optimism. Hopefully the Twins can work out a trade so he can get some seasoning in AAA.
