April 18, 20223 yr Well, the Twins fared a lot better than the White Sox last year in the Patriots Day early game…Dylan Bundy off to a very solid start. Ober was good as well his last time out. We’ll just have to wait and see how long Archer and Paddack can last.
April 21, 20223 yr Cabrera on deck, going for 3000 (intentional walk, they had to do it) Edited April 21, 20223 yr by flavum

April 22, 20223 yr You know offense is down when Eli Captain Morgan of the Guardians has four of first five out against Yankees via the K. Otoh, he did add 25 pounds and has added velocity to go with his plus change.
April 24, 20223 yr “Brutal,” Guardians center fielder Myles Straw told reporters. “Worst fan base on the planet.” nypost.com Rivalry with the Yankees suddenly more interesting. As Mercado told reporters after the game, he was turning to run back to the dugout when two cans were thrown his way, causing him to lose his cool: "I tried to go for the ball, and then I'm making a left turn to head back to the dugout and that's when I felt [the beer can] fly right by me. So I turned around and then I saw another one coming at me and that's when I reacted the way I did. Probably should have handled it better." Yahoo Sports Said Straw, “It was just a beer parade. You could see them (beer cans) coming from a mile away. We were just trying to avoid the beer cans. Our bullpen was getting hit with them, too. “It doesn’t surprise me. I think (Trevor) Stephan got hit by an ice cream cone or something crazy. It was all kinds of stuff. I’ve never seen this anywhere else.” Edited April 24, 20223 yr by caulfield12
April 26, 20223 yr Indians played with fire and left Bieber in with about 100 pitches and he got torched by Angels... Much different club on the road, especially after getting swept in NY and with Kwan out of the line-up. They had someone named Palacios starting in LF that I've never even heard of before. Just 1/2 game ahead of the White Sox now. Edited April 26, 20223 yr by caulfield12

April 28, 20223 yr Anthony Castrovince, reporter/columnist: "Buxton might be the most valuable player RIGHT NOW. Beyond what you just shared, I saw this note from MLB Network: Buxton had a 296 wRC+ in his first 41 plate appearances. The rest of the Twins had an 85 wRC+ in 543 plate appearances. But Mark's right. Let's not do this to ourselves." Is Buxton the best player in baseball right now? https://www.mlb.com/news/byron-buxton-best-player-in-mlb-right-now Trout, Soto, Vladdy Jr. Acuna's finally back today. Ohtani. Those are basically the other options. Hosmer, lol. Edited April 28, 20223 yr by caulfield12
