Boston Red Sox News & Notes - 5/13
2008-05-13 15:00:00 Clay Buchholz’s up-and-down season continued last night as he struggled with his command for the second outing in-a-row. With Bartolo Colon looming on the horizon for the Boston Red Sox, it’s clear that it could be Buchholz who loses his spot in the rotation when the Sox bring up Colon. The only pitch that was ...

Can The Minnesota Twins Stay In 1st Place?
2008-05-05 15:40:00 Through May 4, the Minnesota Twins find themsleves sitting atop the AL Central. With an OBP ranked last in the Americna League and 28th in the majors, their efforts fly in the face of accepted baseball theory that OBP is the most important hitting category. Amongst the other 9 first or second place teams, seven are in the top 10 in OBP, and the Phillies rank 15th and the Orioles 22nd overall. If the Twins aren't doing it with OBP, maybe their pitching is stellar. While not "stellar", the Twins staff ranks 5th in the AL and 13th overall in team ERA. What has been stellar, though, has been the number of free passes the have given - just 73. That is the lowest number of walks allowed by any team in baseball. Finally, I wanted to check Defensive Efficiency Rating to see if the low walks combined with a better defense on balls-in-play would fully explain the Twins surprising 1st place standing. They rank just 9th in the AL in DER and 17th overall. &nb...

Ask the Experts: Minnesota Twins
2008-04-16 13:29:00 Our friends at RotoProfessor recently had the opportunity to ask a few questions of Phil Miller of St. Paul Pioneer Press regarding the upcoming season for the Minnesota Twins. The questions were asked awhile ago and the responses are relatively recent, but I think all of the answers are still relevant.How Francisco Liriano will perform this season. What are your thoughts based on what you have seen during Spring Training?Phil Miller: He’s still got good stuff, but the ungodly slider may be gone for good. I just think every time he throws it, he’s reminded of the pain, and he’s worried about tearing the sutures or the new ligament. So he’s probably a fairly conventional pitcher from now on, albeit an above-average one considering his velocity. If he learns to mix his pitches and use his changeup effectively, he’ll be one of the best left-handers in the game. Just not Superman.Where do you see Delmon Young fitting into the batting order and how do you see him producing?Phil...

Minnesota Twins 2008 Predictions:
2008-03-25 17:37:00 Ok, with Denard Span being sent down to AAA and Joe Nathan being inked to a 4 year, $47 M payday, the Minnesota Twins opening day roster is rounding into shape. Here are my predictions for the upcoming season. The opening day lineup will look like this: 1. Carlos Gomez, CF 2. Joe Mauer, C 3. Michael Cuddyer, RF 4. Justin Morneau, 1B 5. Delmon Young, LF 6. Craig Monroe/Jason Kubel, DH 7. Brendan Harris, 2B 8. Mike Lamb, 3B 9. Adam Everett, SS The best case scenario is that Carlos Gomez becomes Jose Reyes, Joe Mauer and Justin Morneau play like they did in 2006, Delmon Young plays like Torii Hunter did last year, and the 7,8,9 spots can get at least 3 combined hits a game. Worst case scenario is that Carlos Gomez bats .232 like he last year with the Mets, Joe Mauer and Justin Morneau play like they did in 2007, Delmon Young is still a couple years away from being a superstar, Craig Monroe remembers that he is old and Jason Kubel continues to deliver nothing on the hype that I ...
Minnesota Twins President Talks Aging and Major League Baseball With “Cha
2008-03-13 21:01:00 It’ spring training time, so Changing Aging sat down with Minnesota Twins President Dave St. Peter to talk a little baseball and a little aging: Q. You have fans of all ages at Twins games. Baseball is a sport that spans such interest across generations, moreso than other sports, why? More than any other sport, baseball is a game steeped in tradition, in numbers and in family. Baseball is a game that allows for conversation and in many cases provides a connection between parents, grandparents and children. For example, when we go on our Twins caravan, our off-season trip around the Upper Midwest, we have all ages come out to meet with our players and former Twins stars. There is just an incredible connection that is handed off and shared between generations. Q. Growing up in North Dakota, did you have any special older people in your life that you shared your love of the game with? There is no question that my grandparents had a huge impact on my love of the game. There never...

Afternoon Red Sox Delight - 3/7
2008-03-07 22:47:00 I am not sure we should actually be calling this an afternoon delight as the Boston Red Sox split-squad teams did not fare well on either coast of Florida. On the right coast of Florida, the Red Sox got shellacked by the Orioles while on the left coast the Twins put a beating on the Sox as well. Against the Orioles, two of four players competing for the 5th spot in the rotation, Julian Tavarez and Kyle Snyder both got shelled as they combined to give up 9 hits and 9 runs in 5 ? innings today as the Red Sox split-squad team lost to the Oreos 12-2. Michael Tejera wasn’t any better out of the bullpen as he gave up 3 runs, 3 hits and 2 walks in ? of an inning of work. Offensively in the loss to the Orioles, Brandon Moss went 3-for-4 with an RBI and both Alex Cora and Dusty Brown went 2-for-3. Jacoby Ellsbury still hasn’t gotten on track at the plate as he was 0-for-4. I’m looking forward to seeing pictures from Anthony over at the Oriole Post later as he was in attenda...

Minnesota Twins Borrow Long-Term Strategy From Fantasy Baseball
2008-01-26 15:15:00 Yesterday the Minnesota Twins extended 1B Justin Morneau for six years and $80MM and RF Michael Cuddyer for three seasons plus a team option on a 4th for a total of $35MM. I couldn't help thinking these moves were made to soften the blow of a Johan Santana trade. These financial commitments demonstrate the team is committed to a core of "veteran" players the fans can identify as their team. Jerseys can be bought without fear that the player will be gone in a season or two. Marketing efforts can build around the same group of players for several seasons. After those considerations, I couldn't help seeing that the money was close to what it may take to sign Johna Santana to an extension and begin asking why sign a firstbaseman and league average RF should get that but not a CY Young lefthander. Could the Twins realize that giving that money to a pitcher is too risky? Could the Twins be ripping a page from fantasy baseball planning where fantasy teams do not extend ...
