I think your right, Nick. Better yet, I think TR is thinking the same way: http://mlb.mlb.com/video/play.jsp?content_id=25519603&topic_id=8877600&c_id=min&tcid=vpp_copy_25519603&v=3

Here are some facts:

Oswalt hits Mauer on a 3-0 pitch. Doumit and Morneau both strike out to end the inning while their manager is pacing in the dugout and obviously pissed off.

We can't...

How in the world is Robertson leading in OBP without being on the leaderboard in walks?

And Verlander is going up against the best offense in July thus far and one of the best offenses in the majors in June, so I don't see any reason that we can't be optimists. Plus, using inductive...

You say "optimist." as if it is derogatory thing. What's wrong with being an optimist?

Mauer's third game in a row at catcher.

I was also just looking at Morneau, and it is surprising what he has been able to do with so few ABs. Obviously, Konerko deserves the vote at 1b, but Morneau is impressively comparable to some of...

Here is optimism at its finest: on June 6th, 2006 the MN Twins had 25 wins and 32 losses--they were 11.5 games out of 1st place. Lets talk trades in July, not in early June.

They should draft Buxton. There is too much risk with drafting a pitcher that high for the amount they will have to pay. Pitching injuries have hurt us too much lately--we should try to acquire...

His windup and delivery is semi-reminiscent of Cliff Lee or a not-so-exaggerated version of Lincecum. I like his chances a lot.

Super great to see Plouffe finally getting some hits--I think he might soon be leading the team in home runs if he gets the regular plate appearances.

You can't get a much better double switch than that. Nice move by Gardy!

It seemed like the key to yesterday's win was to run up the pitch count. I hope our hitters can get deep into counts again today.

Thomas has now struck out more than half the time he has been up to bat this season. Why exactly did Grady not pinch hit for him in the 9th? I saw the strikeout coming when he was in the on deck...

Morneau has yet to get a hit against lefties this year.

Great post, Nick.

I just saw that the Twins as a team rank 6th in batting average, so it is definitely the heart of the order that needs to clean up some of those base-runners. What do you think...
