If the Wild don't switch things up here, they're done. I suppose that's kind of obvious...

It's official, I have absolutely no idea what to think of these guys.
I don't really have a lot of time here, but that's okay because I don't really have a lot to say (socaltwinsfan created a good case for healthy skepticism here). With help from a thoroughly enjoyable drubbing of the White Sox, the Twins are a winning team for the first time in almost a year. At this point, I'm not going to think too much about it and just enjoy.
We close out the longest homestand of the year with a visit from the scuffling A's. Maybe we can even get a few more ticks above .500. Hughes, in search of his first all mighty W, starts off on the mound tonight.

There certainly are some "wtf?" class collaborations out there. We should probably look into that.

I appreciate that Sir Jones left that closing "wooooo hooooo hoo hoooooo"'s to his backup singers.

Picked up these guys' debut a little bit ago. At first, I didn't really like it. Then, I didn't really like it. After that, I kind of liked it. Now, I like it.

After being thoroughly abused by the Tigers in Motown to open the season earlier this month, the felines come to the friendly confines of Target Field. Over 3 games, el Tigres shut down the Twinkies to a tune of 22-1. Just about how we were all expecting to start off the new season (even if we were hoping for something else).
The end of the inaugural month of baseball has found a bit more success, though we started with a very low bar. Somehow, the hometown team is only a couple games away from .500, and only (heh) 4.5 games out of first. After splitting the recent road trip, Minnesota comes back for an 11-game homestand, their longest of the season. Unfortunately, they'll open it up against the same 3 pitchers that toyed with them to start the year.
Of course, before you get too excited (seriously, what's wrong with you?), keep this little nugget from the Cornman in mind:
The team is last in the league in OBP, SLG, OPS (and perhaps obviously OPS+) and RBI, 14th out of 15 for BA and tied for last in Runs Scored. The Twins have a combined 36 extra base hits - 15 less than the league average.
Go team go!

Admittedly, I'm a few ticks more excited than Mr. Morrison for the next round.
