Miguel Sano retired. Sad.

The Twins lay a beat down on Johnny Cueto and the Marlins 11-1. Larnach led the way with three hits including a triple and a hr. Gallo hit his third with Kepler and Jeffers joining in. Mahle gave up 1 run in 5 IP with 7 K. Alcala continues to look good with 2 more shutout innings and 3K.

Too bad ol' KG isn't around to spout off about us going 162-0. Personally, I think we lose at least 1. [;)]

quote: ORIGINAL: twinsfan Miguel Sano retired. Sad. Analytics casualty. When I started watching baseball in the early 80s he would have lasted a lot longer with that power. but since the advent of analytics....No one wants a guy that doesn't walk much, strikes out a lot, is at best mediocre defensively, but can occasionally hit one a mile. It's not sad. It's modern baseball.

On the last day of the season, Arraez, who was playing through a hamstring injury, sealed his batting title, finishing the season hitting .316 and denying Yankees star Aaron Judge of the Triple Crown. The second baseman, who hit a pair of home runs against the United States in the World Baseball Classic, has picked up right where he left off, adding his 10th and 11th hits to his league-leading total during the Twins’ 11-1 win on Monday. “He means a lot to us,” said shortstop Carlos Correa, who also said he still talks to Arraez nearly every day. “With the game on the line, he was the one we wanted at the plate. Obviously we miss him but at the same time, we understand how business works and we got a good pitcher in Pablo.” I agree with Correa. "With the game on the line, he was the one we wanted at the plate" Hope he has another great year.

Detroit still has Miggy.

No Buxton or Kepler tonight.

Gordon leading off I do not miss the 1 trick pony. Sorry Arraez fans. Larnach is hacking and it's a beautiful thing.

Tough sledding vs Cy Young Alcantara Zero confidence in Maeda But I also had none in Mahle [&:]

So is the Slurve now the Sweeper pitch? Never seen a pitch called that before this year.

David Levine -> RE: Twins 2023 Season and Game Day Thread (4/4/2023 7:04:26 PM)
Great....Pagan in in a 1 run game...

David Levine -> RE: Twins 2023 Season and Game Day Thread (4/4/2023 7:09:55 PM)
And Pagan induces the DP to end the inning!

Karl Juhnke -> RE: Twins 2023 Season and Game Day Thread (4/4/2023 7:22:01 PM)
Amazingly brisk game. Thanks to pitch clock and good pitching.
