Varland roughed up by Braves
Louie Varland was tagged for six runs and two homers in five innings in the Twins’ 9-6 win over the Braves on Tuesday. It was mostly one bad inning for Varland, and he wound up with five strikeouts and no walks. Still, the homer problems are real for Varland; he’s given up 20 in just 94 innings as a major leaguer. The strikeout ability is there to make him a quality starting pitcher if he can do a little better job of keeping the ball in the yard.
Contreras knocks a double in win over Mets
William Contreras went 2-for-5 with an RBI double and a run scored in Sunday’s win over the Mets. Contreras was 0-for-3 with a sacrifice fly on Opening Day, but he’s delivered back-to-back multi-hit games since. The 26-year-old was drafted as a top-five catcher in mixed leagues, and for good reason. The Brewers’ lineup looks plucky, and Contreras finds himself in a favorable home ballpark.
