@cmccoskyThe Tigers are having in big fun making fun of Torii Hunter's angry strip tease when he got tossed from a game last month.
@cmccoskySanchez, 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 (eight years ago) link
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

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.

Twins lead the Majors in ISO in the second half of the year. They are second in home runs, only to the Orioles. They are also second in non-pitcher wRC+, behind only the Cubs. Since the break, their position players have equaled Cleveland in total WAR, and you might have noticed the Indians doing some good things on the field lately.
Byron Buxton has gotten the most attention, and rightfully so, but this power surge isn’t just about Buxton. Yes, he’s tapping his power again and looking like the superstar he was supposed to be, but nearly everyone on the roster has upped their power in the second half....
