Paul Molitor's use of Pressly so far has been suspect. First, Pressly, who is obviously a one inning pitcher, was used in a second inning and gave up a game-losing home run to power hitter Matt Davidson on an outside fastball. Then in another game, instead of walking Avisail Garcia, who was leading the world in hitting, to face Davidson, a strikeout candidate, Molitor left him in and Garcia hit one that hasn't come down yet. Pressly will be fine if he's used right.

Number 5 is the most important, and is the one over which the team has the most control. All the Astros did a few years back, besides, like the Twins, adding new talent, was become a team that win or lose gave the other team headaches. If the Twins concentrate on that, what happened to the Astros then and there may also happen here. Let's just play the games and see what happens.
