Re: 2016 Minnesota Twins -- How Low Can they Go?

Twins go yard 6 times today and Duffey pitches an 8 inning gem as the Twins climb to 24-51 beating the Yanks 7-1. Did not see that coming.

Arcia goes 3-4 with a homer and 3 RBI today for the Rays. Ortiz 2.0?

Time to trade Dozier while he's hot. You know dang well a prolonged slump is right around the corner. Lost season so they might as well get Polanco some playing time this year yet.

Mauer has been going so bad the last dozen games that he was pinch hit for by Centeno last night. Maybe it's time to sit him for a game or 2 especially when Sano is back. Nolasco back to being Ricky last night. Got rocked good.

The Indians have won 14 straight. Twins have won 25 all season. Ouch.

Mauer update:
.045 avg over the last 7 games.
.161 avg and 2 RBI over the last 15 games.
.216 avg and 9 RBI over the last 30 games.

This Kepler kid could be the real deal. Hits his first ever grand slam today and now has 33 RBI. 5 more than Mauer in less than half the at bats. Vargas is looking good too since being called up. He also went deep today.

It was only a matter of time before someone's head rolled. You have to figure Molitor was going to win out that battle because he's still relatively new and stuck with some lousy talent and simply bad contracts. Those issues roll up to...
