Wedge Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 I think today showed why Youk was a pretty big pick-up. You can use him situationally in the 3 spot and give our other big boppers a periodic rest. Let's hope the guy can stay healthy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stretchstretch Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 QUOTE (Cali @ Jun 27, 2012 -> 03:07 PM) Also, good to finally win a laugher after the last month or so. Especially against an AWFUL Twins team. I mean honestly, they never had what you'd call "great" players in the early 00's division run, but the philosophy was what made them winners. I don't think the philosophy has changed, and the players are just as mediocre so what's the difference? Target Field? Yes, I predicted two years ago the grass field would be the end of the "slap bouncer hit through hole" winning method that frustrated me for soooo long. Now they can't tailor a team around their park....the way BOS loads up on lefties for their short RF fence Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elrockinMT Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 This game was closer than it should have been. I was beginning to sweat with Ohman in there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawk keeps saying that Terry Ryan had major influence into the ballpark design too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
