chosen and concludes that Carlos Quentin and Justin Morneau
are the only two legitimate candidates in the American League right now.

I wasn't surprised to watch the Twins take
2 out of 3 from the Tribe over the
weekend. Anytime you face an Indians lineup that features the Humanitarian's Row of Marte (.167), Gutierrez (.213), and Cabrera (.204) in the 7,8,9 holes, you have a good chance of taking the series (and Cabrera's average is inflated due to the hitting tear he's been on over the past few days). Here's what surprised me..

To sum up the series this is what
happened. In games 1, 2 and 4 the Sox
starters didn’t pitch well. They were all felled by the big inning, which was due in part to the Twins uncanny ability to hit with runners in scoring position with 2 outs, oh, and some fellow named Justin Morneau. The bullpen collectively crapped the bed which eliminated any hopes of comebacks, but there's still plenty of hope
