    Not a real surprise. He is good with young players.

    MLB Gameday Thread: April 10th - April 16th

    Twins win again to sweep the Angels. After an 0-9 start, winning 3 straight is great.

    MLB Gameday Thread: April 10th - April 16th

    Twins and Braves win again. Looks like the Twins bats are waking up. 3 homers today including an absolute bomb by Park. One estimate had it at 440' another at 462. The Twins announcers said it was a huge blast.

    This is one reason I'm not throwing in the towel just yet. There are some really good teams this season. The NL looks to be really competitive.

    MLB Gameday Thread: April 10th - April 16th

    Twins and Braves both won their first games of the season today. No more winless teams left, nor are there any undefeated teams. If the Twins win again tomorrow, they will have the same record (2-9) as they did in 1991 after 11 games. They won the WS in 1991 over the Braves.

    Did Dave Roberts make the right decision?

    Remember, we are more concerned about other games in the future than just one outing. Lets let the young man pitch a few more games.

    Kyle Schwarber out for season with Torn ACL, LCL

    I've suffered a similar injury, in a similar situation. Schwarber will be fine, but this year will be a lot harder work than it would have been. The Cubs have a lot of outfield depth and they should be fine, but they will miss his bat in the lineup. They have a couple of kids at AAA that...

    MLB Gamethread: April 3rd-April 9th

    Yesterday, it appeared that Joe Mauer had his swing back. He homered to right-center on a pitch that was up and in and nearly hit another to left on a pitch that was down and away. Its been a couple of years since he first had his concussion issues and said this spring that he finally feels OK...

    Jose Bautista Interference? (Jays-Rays game)

    By the way, had Forsythe been in proper position, the contact wouldn't have happened. He needs to learn to clear himself better.

    Rookie SS Trevor Story makes history with 4th HR in three games

    Reyes' value is decreasing daily. Story is on pace for 216 homers this season. That would be a record, I believe.

    If You Could Change One Rule

    One rule I would like to see changed is the rule that a player can be tagged out on a "pop-up" slide. If the player simply loses contact with the base without oversliding or attempting to advance to another base, they should not be in jeopardy of being tagged out.

    If You Could Change One Rule

    Players need to have better awareness of their surroundings. They need to know who is running and how to avoid contact. If contact is unavoidable, the players need to be sure their bodies are in proper position to allow contact with minimal chance of injury. This said, intentional contact is...

    Jose Bautista Interference? (Jays-Rays game)

    If he hadn't reached out with his left hand it wouldn't have been called.

    Tigers look aggressive on the basepaths. Thats a good sign for them. Verlander is looking like he has in the past. His stuff looks like it is biting well.
