Twins get to All-Star Lee, add to Indians' woeful slide
Carlos Gomez capped a three-run seventh inning against All-Star Cliff Lee with an RBI groundout, and the Minnesota Twins came back again to beat the Cleveland Indians 4-3 Sunday and send them to their eighth straight loss.

Twins report: Roster

Twins report: Inside pitch
The wait, infielder Nick Punto admitted Friday, was long

Twins report: Notes, quotes
--2B Alexi Casilla was scratched from Friday's lineup after his left middle finger, which he injured last week diving headfirst into first base, turned swollen and sore over Thursday's off day

Short Hops: Fundamentally sound Twins getting it done with what they have
Tell the truth, did you expect the Twins to fare this well after losing two-time Cy Young award winner Johan Santana? Scott Miller isn't surprised as nobody in baseball pays more attention to fundamentals than Minnesota.

They've been on a tear as of late, but it's key to remember they have played 11 more games at home than on the road, and they are 11 games above .500 right now. And their margin above .500 still was largely built on interleague play, they are only 1 game above .500 right now vs. the American League.

It will be interesting as they begin road trips vs. some of the better teams in ...(more)

(POLL) Who do you think is the MVP of the Twins so far? I know this is tough, because many Twins are having a great year.

I believe the non-waiver trade deadline is at the end of July... we have a month to move. The way I see it, we're looking to add one, subtract many. What I mean by that, is the Twins have the unique position of being atop a division and being able to move a spot in their rotation, ...(more)

Garza just pitched a one-hitter and is 7-4.

Good thing the Twins never really gave him a chance and stiffled his development and we ...(more)
