Angels get Twin victories in the Twin cities
Posted on 29 May 2011 by Bill Mahoney.
The Twins may have the worst record in baseball, but for all intents and purposes, the Angels were fortunate to escape with even one win. Today was no different than the first two games, as Minnesota battled the Angels down to the final at bat. The series was a success for the starting pitchers. Who is the ace of the staff, Jered Weaver or Dan Haren? Haren and Weaver have comparable stats. Thes...

Posted on 29 May 2011 by Ryan Riordan.
Kansas City's Joakim Soria blew the save Sunday, as Texas scored two runs off the Royals closer in the ninth inning to win 7-6. That marked the fourth time Soria has blown a save this season, which ties him with six other players for the most in baseball. No one could have seen this coming. In fact, the most saves Soria has ever blown in a whole season coming into 2011 was four in his rookie ye...

MLB’s Madcap May Madness
Posted on 29 May 2011 by Christopher Rowe.
What in the name of George Herman Ruth is going on in baseball? The Cleveland Indians are still leading the pack (largest margin of any division leader and tied for second-best record in the majors) after two months of play. Eventually someone has to either call them contenders or let Cleveland know that they can’t be playing this well. Mariano Rivera (13 SV, 1.71 ERA and the greatest closer...

External Options for Upgrading the A’s Offense
Posted on 29 May 2011 by Josh Muller.
Last week I discussed some in-house options for the A’s struggling offense and highlighted the prospects that I think would fulfill the biggest need for the big club. While graduating some minor leaguers might be the quickest and easiest solution to the A’s offensive woes, you can be sure Billy Beane and the A’s are exploring any and every avenue with which to improve the team. In fact I ...

Sizemore Traded to Oakland
Posted on 29 May 2011 by Jeremy Klumpp.
This week the Tigers made a surprising move trading second baseman Scott Sizemore to the Oakland A’s for relief pitcher David Purcey. The deal comes less than a month after Sizemore was recalled from Toledo to replace Will Rhymes. Tigers management felt that Sizemore had his chances to earn the starting job at second, but never fully developed into the player they hoped he would. With Sizemor...

Angels go for a Twin killing, but come up short.
Posted on 29 May 2011 by Bill Mahoney.
Minnesota is never an easy place to play. This year, however, the Twins may be a tad easier to handle. They have had injuries galore, along with many losses in the off-season that have so far, been difficult to overcome. Sounds like a recipe for success for the Halos. The Twins have the worst record in baseball, along with one of the worst pitching staffs, for that team, in years. But starters ...
