    Nice to see Cave making the most of his opportunities.

    Off a fastball no less...

    Gotta get the first one first, Jorge...

    The team that scores more runs will win. Got it!

    Steady dose of fastball I see.

    That's the odd thing. If something like that is going to be chiseled into stone, you'd think that it would be something related to the bats since they disappear so frequently. This team wins when the offense shows up. Many a quality start go wasted when they don't.

    Haha! Dazzle is so accustomed to the Twins losing a series that he started his intro saying "as the Twins try to avoid the..."

    My last HS PA ended in a HBP. The guy threw hard, but had no idea where it was going. His first warm up pitch went to the backstop. 2-0 count, he dropped down side arm and tried to spin one. It didn't spin and it hit me directly on the hip bone. I figure that since he couldn't hit the strike zone, he hit me instead. I barely made it to 1B I was in so much pain. Trying to walk it off only made it worse, but there was no way I was coming out of the game. I still remember the pain as if it just happened. Walked with a limp for a few days. I imagine that it bruised the bone. My God that hurt.

    1.) Where are you from? Born in Cedar Rapids, IA. Eventually made my way to Fergus Falls where I grew up. Now live in Apple Valley. 2.) Age Range? 37 3.) What brought you to Twins Daily? not sure, but it may have been John talking about the site on KFAN. 4.) Highest level of baseball/softball played? high school and traveling teams. 5.) Favorite Twins Player, and favorite underappreciated Twins player, and if you want, favorite current Twins player? Loved Kirby growing up. Torii is up there. Current Twin would probably be Berrios. 6.) Favorite non-Twins Daily site/authors? Don't really have the time to venture far from here. 7.) Favorite Twitter follows? I'm a social media hermit. 8.) Other interests outside of baseball. Golf, being outdoors, cocktails 9.) Favorite part of Twins Daily... forums, blogs, articles, topics... wahtever you like. the game recaps and game threads. 10.) Tell us what we can do better. What features or other topics would you like to see in-season or out of season? 11.) Have you been to any of the Twins Daily "events?" I have not, but hope to at some point.

    I don't have any scientific data to back this up, but it seems like this team runs on Gordon a lot. Considering how well they should know the Royals and Gordon in particular, this seems really odd to me. They seem to dare him to throw them out, and he most often does.

    I'm still amazed that FS1 didn't find an out to somehow get out of televising this game. The ratings must be through the cellar.
  13. wsnydes
    Yeah, the last thing I want to hear about as a fan of either of these teams is the Yankees. Thanks for being in touch with your audience, Tom.

    I've got a Nicky Punto foul ball from a game against the Tigers at the Dome. I've still got it. It's in a case on my desk at home.

    "I'm gonna go home now."
  16. wsnydes
    I think that shows how bad Baltimore has been.
  17. wsnydes
    You're just piling on!
  18. wsnydes
    Which is reasonable. I couldn't care less about watching him either catch fire finally in a lost season or continue to struggle in a lost season. If they get someone that can help next season, great! If not, it's better than nothing.
  19. wsnydes
    He didn't get cheated on that. Not was the sun a factor.
  20. wsnydes
    Not everyone that wants him traded because of Gordon. Some want him dealt because they won't re-sign him and they may as well get something for him.
  21. wsnydes
    I'll take baby steps at this point. I don't want to see him up here again until the minor league season is done, if even then.
  22. wsnydes
    It's like watching a mirror image of the Twins with RISP.
  23. wsnydes
    He's a better defensive catcher than I am. Does that do anything for you?
  24. wsnydes
    In a sense, this team could use some of that type of crazy.

    Nice to see Kepler warm up a bit at the plate.
