RandBall: Weekend Links

In this post: links, and a programming note.

The usual Saturday effort at RandBall is up.

Also: for anyone interested, I'm again doing the "GameDay Chatter" segment on the Twins radio postgame show tomorrow. It's a long show, but at some point, you'll hear me rhapsodizing about, of all things, Mark Buehrle.

Twinkie Town: More Mauer numbers

In this post: a link to a short post at Twinkie Town.

I'm guessing you're not tired of hearing how great Joe Mauer is. Some more numbers are over at TT.

Twinkie Town: The anti-cycle, and the rest of 2009

In this post: links to two posts at Twinkie Town.

Twins shortstop Orlando Cabrera failed so spectacularly on Sunday (two GIDPs, an error, two strikeouts), that it got a discussion going: what constitutes the anti-cycle in baseball?

Also, though the Twins may be out of the pennant race, they've still got things to accomplish in 2009. I look at five things the team can still do this year.

And of course, a game preview/discussion thread will go up around 5pm tonight, and a game recap will immediately follow the conclusion of the Twins vs. Rangers game.

UPDATE: The Twins lost 8-5. Here's the recap.

T-Wolves Blog: There are (few) words

I can sum up my thoughts on the Wolves' trade last night (Quentin Richardson for Mark Blount) pretty succinctly - and I do so at the T-Wolves Blog.

My weekly efforts at Twinkie Town

Monday was another off day for the Twins, and so it was another day for me to put up just a couple of short posts at Twinkie Town.

  1. Numbers that indicate that the entire starting rotation is going backwards.
  2. A poll on whether Justin Morneau or Joe Mauer still has a chance to win MVP, even though the team's going nowhere fast.
