Minnesota Twins July 25, 2010Even Heroes Bleed
Nick's Twins Blog — It seems I've got some positive mojo going right now. Last Thursday, I wrote an article about J.J. Hardy, noting that his disappointing numbers up to this point have largely been the result of a pesky wrist injury and that with the ailment behind him he should be primed for a much better second half. Since that point, Hardy has gone 10-for-26 (.385) with three doubles and four RBI in seven games. A day after my Hardy post, I wrote a blurb about Francisco Liriano, noting that a lack of good fortune and support from his teammates had led to his unspectacular W/L record and ERA leading up to the ...

St. Paul Pioneer Press — RECAP: Francisco Liriano (8-7) scattered six hits and four walks over seven innings, and Delmon Young went 3 for 5 with three RBIs as the Twins won Wednesday at Target Field to avoid a three-game sweep. Liriano struck out eight, ending his day by fanning Asdrubal Cabrera with two runners on in the seventh. J.J. Hardy drove in two runs with a double in the Twins' four-run third.

Twinkie Town — More photos » Paul Battaglia - AP Scoring from first on a double - one of the "little things" that don't appear in a box score. Browse more photos » During the offseason, most of us were excited at the moves made by Bill Smith and the Twins front office to improve offensive production. Orlando Hudson, J.J. Hardy, Jim Thome, all were expected not only to close some of the lineup gaps that have frustrated in previous years (remember the days of Harris, Punto, Casilla in the starting infield?), but also ...
Minnesota Twins July 6, 2010Minnesota Twins' midterm report card
St. Paul Pioneer Press — Through Thursday's games, the Twins had the second-fewest errors (32) in the major leagues. First baseman Justin Morneau leads the Twins — and ranks among the league's best — in batting average (.344), HRs (17), doubles (24), RBIs (55), on-base percentage (.437) and games played (79). 2B Orlando Hudson has been a solid No. 2 hitter and good fielder. Nick Punto has played well defensively at three positions. And Michael Cuddyer has been good enough at third to give his manager the flexibility to get his best bats into the lineup. Only SS J.J. Hardy has been a disappointment, missing...

Tampa Bay Rays July 4, 2010Twins right fielder Michael Cuddyer just fine at third, Jim Thome agrees
St. Paul Pioneer Press — Michael Cuddyer sure looks like the Twins' new third baseman, playing there in eight of the past nine games — seven of them starts. That will change when shortstop J.J. Hardy returns from his minor league rehabilitation stint.
