The Twins had a chance to prove me right today had they won. They were 2-3 on the road trip going into today’s game but they were slaughtered by Texas 10-0. So they finished the trip 2-4 and head home for a few games against the White Sox and then three against the Tigers next weekend. Obviously the games within the division will prove vital as a majority of their games are played against those teams. Nobody is running away with the division as of yet with all teams packed within 4 games of each other. During the past week we watched Liriano get roughed up enough that not only did he not make it out of the first inning, he didn’t make it out of Oakland with the team. Instead he is headed to the AAA team for the unforeseeable future. On the bright side, Cuddyer is back from his dislocated finger and has already contributed some offense after knocking a 3-run homer out last night. It is some much needed offense from the right side of the plate. I’m looking forward to getting to a game soon. I’m slated to catch a couple against the BoSox in a few weeks. Let’s hope for some good results this week.

11-14
