Martin Perez? Will we give up another run this year?

Outscored Blue Jays 20-1.

And another shutout on the board!

Good win last night ai hope Garver isn't out too long with that ankle sprain. Dude has been swinging the bat really well. Already has more HRs this year (9) than his entire career before this season.

Great win! It was a nice stopper win to keep us from losing 3 in a row. We are actually getting to the point where we could use Sano. At one point I was worried he would upset the chemistry and now we could use the bat.

Garver to the DL and Sano is up. It would be great if he could get on track fairly quickly when he gets opportunities. Hopefully Garver isn't out too long.

Hey Jester what was that pop stat you liked about catchers? I like the one that Castro has right now leading to 7 HRs so far. :) What a season it's been for the Twins and not everything has gone right. Sano looks to have had a solid first game. Meanwhile Addison Reed got DFA'd. I've heard his fastball was topping out at 86-89 in the minors. That's too bad sometimes even things that look like solid moves at worst don't always work out.

Lol I been waiting for a Castro comment for awhile now. He has been very good this season. It's quite remarkable our catchers have combined for 16/17 home runs this season. To bad about Reed it's hard when a player just loses it. Baseball the one sport that it can go quickly. I remember the Twins let Kubel go after 20 home run and 100 rbi season. He signed with Arizona hit 30 bombs first year there. If I remember correctly he was out of baseball
out of the league by June the next year.

This was a fun read.

Luis Arraez...what a start to his big league career. Last night he got in on the HR parade with his first. In his entire minor league career he had 6 total HRs.
