still think their regression is coming, but I figured it'd happen already...and still hasn't happened.

Chris Sale has a 6.85 ERA in four starts vs. the Twins (18 ER in 23 2/3 IP) but a 1.88 ERA vs. everybody else (71 2/3 IP, 15 ER).

The Tigers are having in big fun making fun of Torii Hunter's angry strip tease when he got tossed from a game last month.

@cmccosky
Sanchez, V-Mart, Price, they were all in on trying to recreate that hilarious scene as Hunter was trying to take BP. He fell out laughing

Sano just tied the game with a 2-run bomb, which raises the question

skateboards are the new combover (Dr Morbius), Saturday, 19 September 2015 19:37 (ten years ago)

this shouldn't matter, but in my mind it kind of does -- sano is *capable* of playing the field, he simply doesn't because of the construction of the twins roster. had they traded for david ortiz at the deadline, sano would go play third and it wouldn't be a big deal.

at any rate, correa and lindor are doing a significant portion of what sano is at the plate while also playing strong and outlandish, respectively, major league shortstop. even if you give sano imaginary credit for playing 3B or 1B -- or for facing better pitchers -- i don't think he catches them

we can be heroes just for about 3.6 seconds (Dr Morbius), Friday, 15 April 2016 02:29 (ten years ago)

Minnesota entered the season with a promising trio of outfielders, but each of Rosario, Buxton and Sano has struggled tremendously this season. Buxton has struck out in half of his plate appearances, whereas Sano is at 43 percent and Rosario has punched out in 36 percent of his trips to the plate.

26 XBH against CLE in the first three of a four-game series.

Already the most XBH CLE has ever surrendered in a four-game series.

Scores of games: 12-5, 10-6, 13-5.

yankees will, in an hour or so, improve to 88-33 against the twins since 2002

that's a 118-win pace in a 162-game season

mookieproof, Wednesday, 20 September 2017 19:29 (eight years ago)

Yankees now 87-33 against Twins since 2002. In tomorrow's game, I hear the Twins are using these new rocket skates they just got from Acme.
