Twinkie Town Talk: Eduardo Escobar won an award Ed-ition

In case you missed it

• Aliens, Baseball, and great storytelling.
• The Twins offense looks sustainable, according to advanced stats.
• The offense didn’t show up last night though, besides that home run from Ehire Adrianza, that made the difference in that 1-0 win against Justin Verlander and the Astros

Around Twins Territory

• The Ringer has a great article about the “Willians Astudillo experience” and how the Twins have marketed the gift to baseball that is La Tortuga.
• Miguel Sano will begin rehab games in Ft Myers today. That means we’ll see him within 20 days, barring a setback.
• KARE11 and Dustin Morse had a chat about whether it’s time to believe in the Twins
• Trevor May opened up and discussed how he balances being a professional baseball player with being a professional video game player.

Elsewhere in baseball

• Sinclair Broadcasting is reportedly in agreement with Disney to buy the now mouse-owned Fox Sports RSNs, including the Twins home at FSN.
• Our dear, old friend won some hardware, as Eduardo Escobar was named NL Player of the week.
• Tigers top prospect Casey Mize threw a no-hitter in his double-A debut, and only used 98 pitches to do so. I’m not looking forward to having to face him for the next decade.
