August 18, 201214 yr I hate the concept of a jinx and I am not a superstitious fellow. I apologize if I am damning anyone and their hopes. Willingham has a legit shot at 40 HR's. 9 more buddy! Let's get on that horse and ride! There is only one 40 HR member in the history of the Twins. Killebrew awaits....
August 18, 201214 yr Batting Average/slgg by monthApril .347/.681 May .220/.473June .255/.480July .283/.663August .184/.388ISO has been over 200 every month, whether he's hitting for average (overrated for a run producer) or not...fantastic power hitter. Absolutely the oposite of a 'Twins hitter'. Hitting for power/driving in runs has made his decreasing BAve invisible.

Let's get on that horse and ride! There is only one 40 HR member in the history of the Twins. Killebrew awaits.... 9 more (40) vs. 4 more (20) vs. 2 more (10). Who has the better shot at his own personal 2012 "milestone"? Willingham/Morneau/Mauer. The way Morny is swinging the bat since July 1, I vote Justin most likely, the Hammer 2nd most, Mauer least likely.
August 18, 201214 yr I hope Willingham gets a bunch of that 9 in the next 2 games because he's my "pick to click" for this series. I could use the points. Willing you on to more HR, Mr. Willingham.

Those 3 deeds done, and a batting title (either Mauer or Revere, take your pick) would be some solace, merciful diversion and reasons for continuing interest through to October 3. Those, and about a half dozen of the prospects making a major-league level showing in the September call-up could offer some glimmers of hope and positivity heading into 2013.

If Mauer or Revere can pull off a batting title, that would be beyond cool. I have been waiting for Trout to hit a rookie rut. Although he has struggled somewhat in the last few weeks, he is hanging on... wish we had him. I am not holding breath for a Arcia and Hicks call-up in September, but who knows? I guess we will find out.
