For some reason it still strikes me as odd that there's professional baseball in Arizona. I mean, there's all the spring training, and the Diamondback have been around for more than 20 years. But the Twins have only ever played 21 games against Arizona in their history. And only 9 of those have been in Arizona. At least, according to the very brief research I was willing to do.
I wonder if that's the fewest games against the Twins have ever played against a team? Nope, not willing to look that one up right now. We don't even have an Arizona Diamondbacks option for our game log image... so yeah. Not a real team. Or at least only marginally a real team.
Anyway, tonight Smeltzer goes against Bumgarner, and the Twins are gonna win in the desert.
I was questioning the wisdom of leading off with the .231 hitter instead of the .354 hitter. Silly me.
2 RISP LOB. OY!
Even LH pitchers bow to the might of Luis' bat.
So much hand wringing over going down to 13 pitchers. 13 is too high. Managers would prefer 30 man staffs so they could throw 9 pitchers at max effort every game and have 9 different ones to do the same the next day.
Smeltzer is turning back into a Smeltzer
Only 15 games ever against the Rockies.
