The Twins thumped Houston again in Thursday's nooner, so they exceeded my series split ambitions and took three of four from the Astros and six of seven on the home stand.
And, with the Rays having hit a bump in the road in Kansas City, the Twins now sport the best won-lost record in the American League.
We're not a week into May yet, and I don't pay a lot of attention to the standings before Memorial Day. but things are pretty clearly going well for the Twins. Sweeping Baltimore is nice; taking three of four from the Astros -- and getting three long starts in that series -- is more impressive.

Adalberto Mejia went on the injured list Thursday and Mike Morin, a right-hander who has bounced around between the Angels, Royals and Mariners with little success, was called up. He gets to celebrate his birthday today (28) on a major league roster, so good for him.
Morin was signed as a minor league free agent and he pitched 12 innings in Rochester to a 2.25 ERA before getting the callup. I'm not expecting much.
