I liked the first game yesterday.
Mike Pelfrey is just so bad right now that he didn't give the Twins a chance at winning that second game.
And I can't believe the Twins get another day off today.
It's starting to feel like the NBA or NHL with all of these days off.
Send Pelfrey down to the minors for a few months on a rehab assignment. He clearly is not yet ready to pitch at the big league level. It worked for Joe Nathan. It's time to do it for Mike AND the Twins sanity.
The Twins had won 5 straight after switching Brian Dozier to lead-off. He's good in the role. Mauer has responded in kind.
Eduardo Escobar has become like a secret weapon for the Twins. He doesn't play much, but when he does, he sure hits. He's now batting .480 for the season.
Oswaldo Arcia may only be hitting .167 since being called up, but his three-run blast gave the Twins the win in the first game. The Twins seem to be winning on BIG hits rather than solid play. In the long run, that'll probably cost them. And I still can't believe how many runners we get to second and third base that end up stranded.
