4/12 Powder Blue Royals-Twins Thread

I don't know why people are beating up on Teahen, he's probably been our best hitter so far.

He came into tonight with a 1.000+ OPS, and was on pace for 80 extra base hits and more walks than strikeouts. Combine that with outstanding baserunning and a strong arm in left, and he might be our best player so far. Now, my money would be that he finishes with an OPS under 1000 and less than 80 XBH, but... if we're going to freak out after 11 games, it would be really ignorant to say Teahen is the reason the offense is struggling at this exact moment. It isn't.
