There are many reasons we love sports. We get to watch tremendous athletes do amazing things. The nature of sports also leads to intense stakes as teams and athletes vie for victory.
A Buxton & Sano cautionary tale (Author’s Note: I pinky-promise this piece is not a direct response to Ben’s great top prospect outlook. As you’ll read, I’m fine with prospect excitement—so long as dreaming on the future doesn’t mean punting on the present) I’ve never been a big “prospect guy”.
If Twins fans had a nickel for every time a former Twins player burned themselves while on a new team, they would have two nickels. It's not a lot, but self-inflicted burn injuries aren't all that common in baseball and for it to happen twice to former Twins is just simply remarkable.
A Major League switch hitter has hit at least 35 home runs on 35 occasions in MLB history. How many of the switch hitters to reach that milestone can you name in five minutes?

Miguel Sano reached base four times, Patrick Sandoval rebounded from a forgettable Opening Day start and the Los Angeles Angels completed a three-game sweep of the host Miami Marlins with a 10-2 victory Wednesday afternoon.
Miguel Sano was once one of the hottest prospects in the Minnesota Twins system. When he and Byron Buxton were both at peak minor league hype, they were both ranked in the top-10 of all Major League Baseball prospects.
Miguel Sano, nearly a decade removed from the days of being a phenom with the Twins, has lost 58 pounds as he attempts to revive his career with the Los Angels Angels. This is great news for Sanó, who spent last year out of baseball after his contract with the Twins expired after the 2022 season.
