southsider2k5 Posted April 3, 2014 Author Share Posted April 3, 2014 QUOTE (BFirebird @ Apr 3, 2014 -> 01:42 PM) I know the Twins are bad..but this is promising for Q after a suspect spring. That was pretty much traced to the guy taking the physical for his brand new contract extension. There was never a loss of velocity or anything that should have been a red flag.

chw42 Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 (edited) So yeah...Alejandro's probably gonna go yard 30 times this year. It's interesting to see him go from a slap hitter with gap power in 2012 to the turn and burn pull hitter he is now.

LittleHurt05 Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 One way to rid yourself of dumb baserunning is to take all four bases at once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaylorStSox Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 Tyler, you're going to get a first ball fastball on every AB. You might as well get the bat started early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chw42 Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 Flowers made contact with a 94 MPH fastball middle-in. That's a rare occasion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaylorStSox Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 If Flowers ever figures out how to guess right, he can hit 25 HR's just running into pitches. That bat speed tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
