I actually watched a lot of Minnesota sports live yesterday. I saw over half of the Twins spring training game and the first half of the Wolves game last night as well.
Both were very entertaining.
Observations? Kennys Vargas is big, but not fat. I was fearing a Prince Fielder look, but instead got a normal looking big guy instead. I saw him take a simple swing yesterday while lining a single to right. His wrist speed is amazing. They said Gardy is going to give him lots of playing time at DH to see what he can do. I'm looking forward to it.
Chris Parmalee, who hit a big three-run homer, on the other hand, looks fat. Maybe it's just his uniform, but that boy seems to have put on substantial weight since the last time I saw him. The casually observing wife noticed it too, and pointed it out to me.
Of course, if he hits three-run homers with great regularity, no one will care.
The Wolves had Martin and Pekovic back in the line-up last night and the Wolves didn't skip a beat. If anything. Kevin Love got to rest more as Pekovic and Love split the rebounds and scoring duties. Martin was red hot at the beginning. Everybody was red hot at the beginning.
The best news is that the Wolves won another road game and are at last back to the .500 mark. They haven't been over it in months.
Sports is always fun when you win. In Minnesota we need to do that more often.
