This is huuuuge. Sano was easily the top Latin American talent available this year. He received a 3.15 million signing bonus. The 16 year old shortstop probably will move to third base in the future as he is a big kid who still has some filling out to do.
With the signing of Sano, Max Kepler, [...]

Generally catchers don’t catch both ends of a doubleheader. Joe Mauer is not most catchers.
The future AL MVP poked his head into Gardy’s office after the game and said three words: “I got this.”

2. Orlando Cabrera, SS

The Twins-Tigers game tonight has been rained out. They will play tomorrow at 11 AM Central time and 6 PM Central time.

This is it, kids. Twins v. Tigers. Four games to decide the AL Central. The Twins have their four best pitchers going, while the Tigers have their ace and three other guys. Not that said three other guys are bad, but there is no one in there as good as Verlander, nor is there anyone [...]

Tigers wOBA (AL Rank): .328 (9)
Twins FIP (AL Rank): 4.36 (7)
Tigers FIP (Al Rank): 4.53 (11)
Twins UZR: (AL Rank): -35.6 (12)
Tigers UZR (AL Rank): 44.0 (3)
The Tigers pitching has been below average as a whole, and outside of Justin Verlander it has been pretty [...]

The Twins swept the Sox tonight, despite a so so effort from Brian Duensing. He went 5.2 innings and gave up 3 runs, including a 2 run HR. Bobby Keppel also gave up a 2 run HR, but the rest of the bullpen did its job to close out the win. Nathan made it interesting, [...]

In 1871, a great fire swept through Chicago, burning around four square miles. If Chicago re-enacts that fire, by all means go ahead, as long as you make sure you catch US Cellular Field.
The Twins are up 2 games to none in the series vs. the White Sox, and they go for the sweep tomorrow [...]
