Disappointing Game Four
The Twins split the series with Detroit. I guess the team of manager Ron Gardenhire and pitching coach Rick Anderson were just too good to overcome...

Twins!!
Okay, the first game didn't go as well as hoped, BUT the starting pitching in both games was more than adequate. It was the offense and bullpen that let us down in the first game.
The second game? Now THAT seemed more like a Twins game. Lots of offense and the bullpen backed up a pretty nice start.
Home runs? 4 on the day, two for each game.
One more with the Tigers today before the Angels come to town. Perez will start as he's back from paternity leave!

Twins Notes
Two unproven pitchers today for the double header and Perez (who is normally next in the rotation and would start Sunday) is on maternity leave.
sigh
The Twins have scored 26 and given up just ONE run in the last 4 games.
The last team to do that well in major league history? The Twins in 2004. They scored 32 and gave up 1 (July 5-8 that year).
NO team has given up just one run in four games for over 4 seasons.

Thoughts
The highest paid Twins pitcher this year (who the Twins can actually USE) is Addison Reed.
He's a reliever on a rehab assignment at AAA ball in Rochester. He sprained his thumb in spring training. The thing is, we HAVE him, but he hasn't been any good since mid-June last season. He officially is close to returning.
I'm not sure if the Twins should make room for him or just let him go. Sano will be coming back soon as well.
Do you really want to mess with a line-up, bench, and rotation that's doing THIS WELL?
I know I don't.
This is USUALLY when someone gets hurt, and the switch outs become more obvious.
I guess we'll just wait and see what happens.

Twins!!
Gibson!
4 more home runs!
18 hits!
Their 5th best start ever (but remember, 3 of the previous times they were this good early, they didn't make the playoffs.)
BEST RECORD IN BASEBALL with over 20% of the season done!
