Twins!!

The Twins are now 18-4 at home when they lose the previous game! They stop losing streaks dead in their tracks.

Two more home runs! Cruz and Cron.

Pineda! Super good outing for the man recovering from Tommy John surgery. He even had his SLIDER working yesterday. That's the best sign of full recovery, yet. He hasn't had it it at all this year until yesterday. Maybe he's about to become our next ace. I've been hoping.

Bullpen? Still an absolute mess. But 10 runs from the offense helped mitigate that.

Go Twins!!!



The question asked yesterday: Why are the Twins so different this year?

The younger guys (Rosario, Buxton, Polanco) are now looking like superstars.

The added free agents (Cruz, Cron, Gonzolez) are every bit as good as advertised.

The coaching staff (pitching and hitting) are really good and Rocco knew what he was doing in getting them.

The starting pitching has been phenomenal. (A lot of that has to do with the pitching coach).

Obviously something needs to happen with the relief corp. It's probably the worst group of guys we have had in years. Coaching can only do so much.
