    Nelson Cruz is the biggest Twins free agent signing in years.....

    I mean going back to.....Jack Morris?  

    He has been huge. The only really great year I remember is Molitor a year before retiring, had a huge year for very little moolah.

    Buxton to IL....Pineda to IL....

    Cave up.....Littell up......

    Hopefully Cave is just used as a pinch runner. 

    Losing Buxton again hurts, his defense and speed from the 9 spot are things they haven't been able to even somewhat replicate, his intangible value will be missed...again.

    The Twins need serious help in the bullpen if they want to remain in the hunt. 

    I see they did trade for one decent arm the last couple days which will help but that Yankees series really exposed how bad both teams pitching has been past a few starters.

    Bats go silent and the lead likely down to one.  

    I've been critical of the Twins over this stretch, but my God the Indians haven't played anyone other than the Twins this month.....playing 10 against the Royals and a four game homestand against the mighty Tigers.  Likely to go 13-1 in those 14.....throw in the Reds, Blue Jays....and I'm not as upset at the Twins.....

    Schedules are about to flip, Indians have a lot of beasts in August and the Twins have a lot of bottom feeders...need to make hay this month.

  5. Twins still leading the majors with 138 homers,  team record almost certain to be broken. 

    I wonder if they'll try to trade for a closer from a non-contender, the late bullpen is the only weak spot right now?

    This was expected, most have been gone for quite a while and a few more left recently because of various reasons. I expected a lot of turnover after Hauck got through year one and saw what he had and continued to work back into his style of offense from the Stitt regime (having TE's, FB's, and depth on defense instead of 128 WR's). The only two eye-raisers were Green the RB who didn't sound like the right fit but has skills, and the kicker who was very good but left school for a great software job I believe. The others were not looking at significant playing time which probably factored in.

    Need one more to tie the record of most homers in first 50 games of the season. At 101. Seattle with record at 102 

    On pace to crush the team record of 225 by 100 or so, I'm sure they won't keep this up all season but the team record is definitely in jeopardy.

    And...Sano is back now too.
