Casey Blake

Frank Thomas, Jim Thome, etc. etc., Casey Blake? Every year, with the last pick of my fantasy baseball drafts, I spend it on Casey Blake. Why, you ask? Well, it seems that he kills the Minnesota Twins year after year. He did it last night and he'll do it again the next few nights. You'll see what "he did" (about to use overused cliché) AFTER THE JUMP!

I took a look at Baseball-Reference to see some of Blake's stats against the Twins and found a few gems. We have what his stats is and then where it ranks compared to other teams he has faced. It isn't quite as good as I thought, but he's good for some pretty good games against the Twins. It seems he is probably at his best against the Tigers, however.
