Do we really trust the Twins bullpen to get 9 outs before giving up at least 2 runs?

 

actually, the Twins bullpen is pretty good this year.

 

they have also pitched about 600* innings already

 

 

*this number may or may not be true.

I didn't realize Glen Perkins could get it up to 97.

 

 

he didnt throw that hard when he was a starter. but when he moved to the bullpen last he, he started to throw his fastball a little harder. Detroit might have a fast gun, but regularly throws it 95.

Lots of disappointed Royals' fans after the Home Run Derby picks were announced...

Cano’s picks went against what he had previously said on June 5. The Yankees slugger was asked by ESPN about the pressure on him to choose a Kansas City guy. He responded: “That’s got to be the right thing. You’ve got to pick one of the Royals players. Because I mean that’s there hometown and that’s where the All-Star Game is going to be so the fans want to see their players there.”

The Indians need to add another bat, especially with Chisenhall out now. Good that we got Youk when we did or we would have had to up the ante in a bidding war between the two teams. They've still got Hannahan though.

 

Will come down to healthy/"good" Hafner, another OF bat (maybe Quentin, Soriano or a healthy Sizemore, yeah, that's unlikely)....Santana needs to pull his head out of his a-- and live up to his immense potential.

 

That Indians' rotation is still short. Same problem with the Royals (for about 15-20 years).

Billy Butler may have broken the record for most doubles in a Home Run Derby. :P

 

Jokes aside, I think they should have included him, give the KC fans something extra to cheer for. It's not some light-hitting infielder, he has 16 HR this year.
