Zimmer just learned you don't throw Nelson Cruz a fastball over the plate.

Speaking of Phillips, he has hit another HR tonight. But I'm not sure if that's impressive or not. They're playing at Reno they're losing 20-8 in the 6th inning, so everyone is hitting. Omaha may have to go to their hurry up offense.

the only thing that matters in these lost years is player development. This is why shit like signing Duda and Hamilton is so frustrating.
You have enough actual potential big-leaguers to fill out your starting 8 along with some utility pieces. Spend money on pitching and pitching only in free agency, with an emphasis on bullpen pieces. quit spending good money on shit players. |

So bring up the young guys to take their lumps and failures, so that in a year or two they should be productive. |

I understand the club control concept, and there's a balance to be achieved. I still don't understand throwing money at Duda and Billy. It's dumb. |

Soler just annihilated one into the upper deck in Minnesota. 465 feet. What a bomb.

Meanwhile the Twins are on pace to hit 12 homers tonight. You never would have guessed at the beginning of the season that this team would be the greatest home run hitting team of all time.
EDIT: Make that on pace for 16 homers tonight. I almost wonder if Duffy is tipping his pitches. They're sitting all over everything he throws. |

Bubba has really cooled off since his hot start. Over the last week he's 3-22 with 0 walks and 12 strikeouts.

The defense and plate approach are solid. Just really struggles to do much with a good slider.
