I hope it isn’t all for naught.
Tonight’s comeback win reminded me of good ol’ fashioned Twins baseball, at least regarding the offense. Granted, they were given many free passes. But the thing is, this time they took advantage!
I’m just gonna rattle off some random thoughts:
Jose Mijarez is pitching his nuts off.
Delmon Young finally looks like he isn’t trying to solve calculus problems every time he steps up to the dish.
I’d venture a guess that 50% of Justin Morneau‘s home runs are off pitches that are out of the strike zone.
Mijares is a combination of Dennys Reyes and J.C. Romero.
Philip Humber can be an effective major league pitcher … in some sort of role.
If Young keeps it up, he needs to play LF everyday, thus giving the Twins two cannons in the corner OF spots … and costing Carlos Gomez some playing time.
For the first time all season, Joe Mauer‘s bat looked tired all night.
Randy Ruiz is hitting .320 with 4 HRs in 13 games for Toronto.
Let’s go Blacky!
