Rather than talk about that, I'd like to focus on a former Twin instead. He was consistently good before he left and he's still consistently good. His power is down a little bit this year, but his average is way up. So far up in fact, that he's leading the National League in hitting.
He's doing all of this for a salary that's less than what we paid Justin Morneau this season and less than HALF of what Joe Mauer is getting. ($10.5 million.) I frequently think that the Twins attach their rather expensive cart to the wrong horse. He's just the latest example of that.
