FORT MYERS http://www.giantsfanproshop.com/authentic-evan-longoria-jersey , Fla. (AP) — came on the first day of workouts for pitchers and catchers.There was simply less standing around between drills by the players on the field.“The goal is to have it individualized for the guys so they can get done what they need to get done and just focus on getting that work done and do the best job that we can doing it,” Baldelli said on Thursday. “It worked cleanly, and I think everyone’s feeling pretty good right now.”The Twins, who hold their first full-squad workout on Monday, began with a team meeting at 9:15 a.m. inside the clubhouse at Hammond Stadium and were finished less than three hours later.The time-saving reshuffle from past routines came from third-year bench coach Derek Shelton, who arranged the pitchers into three workout groups. Each of them was named after one of Minnesota’s other pro sports teams, the NHL’s Wild, the NFL’s Vikings and the NBA’s Wolves. Each of the three schedules were staggered to minimize the stretches of inactivity that can unfold amid the low-key atmosphere across major league camps“I think the best way to describe it is just trying to get the most out of our guys in a good, concise, short period of time,” said Baldelli, who at age 37 is the youngest manager in MLB . He added: “For rolling it out for the first time, I don’t think it could’ve gone any better.”Right-hander Jose Berrios, the ace of the rotation, raved about the pace.“It’s different,” he said, emphasizing he liked the “quality over quantity.”“The only thing we have to do out there is do our work the right way and we’re done,” he said.New reliever Blake Parker Barry Bonds Jersey , who signed with the Twins last month, nodded his approval, too.“We come into spring training ready to roll. We’re all excited to be here and to get going and to get straight into what we’re wanting to do, which is to get better,” said Parker, who held the closer role last season for the Los Angeles Angels.Relief pitcher Taylor Rogers looked forward to staying fresher.“In any profession, if there’s less down time, that’s a positive thing. Those first couple weeks of spring training, when you’re on your feet for eight hours, it kind of takes a toll on you, especially when you’re looking at a full season. In think in that respect, it will be a good thing.”Baldelli was hired from the Tampa Bay Rays, where he served in several roles in the front office and on the coaching staff. He was picked by chief baseball officer Derek Falvey and general manager Thad Levine to replace Paul Molitor, fired after four seasons.The addition of Baldelli was just one piece in a broader move by the organization to offer more resources to players in all areas of preparation and training, while also seeking to provide them in more individualized ways.On this sunny day in southwest Florida, when the Twins also reached agreements on contract extensions with right fielder Max Kepler and shortstop Jorge Polanco , the vibe was predictably upbeat as Baldelli savored his first on-field opportunity to begin building the foundation of his relationship with his players .“We get to come together for the first time with everyone,” Baldelli said Madison Bumgarner Jersey , “and the guys brought great energy onto the field.” WASHINGTON (AP) — In what could be one of his final games for the Nationals, Bryce Harper added another accomplishment to his impressive resume.Anthony Rendon homered and drove four runs, Harper reached 100 RBIs in a season for the first time and Washington beat the Miami Marlins 7-3.Juan Soto and Matt Wieters also homered for the Nationals, who broke it open with four runs on three pitches in the fourth inning.Harper started the big inning, driving in his 100th run with a sacrifice fly that scored Adam Eaton and put Washington ahead 3-1.“I think for me it’s just going out there and trying to score runs and doing the things I can. If I can get to 100 runs, 100 walks and 100 RBIs, it’s pretty cool,” said Harper, who has 126 walks and 99 runs scored. “I’ll take that any day of the week.”His previous high was 99 RBIs in 2015, when he won the NL MVP Award. Harper, a pending free agent, got a standing ovation from the sparse, rain-soaked crowd and congratulations from his teammates.Asked if he’s thought about this possibly being his final home series at Nationals Park, Harper said: “I think for me if I’m worried about that, I’m not worried about my at-bats that night or the game. I’ve got two more games at home and we’ll see what happens on Wednesday.”After Harper’s milestone, Rendon and Soto homered back-to-back on the next two pitches from Sandy Alcantara (2-2). Rendon lofted a two-run shot down the left-field line, and Soto lined one into the visitors’ bullpen in left-center to make it 6-1.Rendon extended his on-base streak to 32 games, the longest active streak in the majors.“He’s Mr. Steady Juan Marichal Jersey ,” manager Dave Martinez said of Rendon, who has 23 homers and 87 RBIs in 131 games. “His all-around game, defense, offense, he’s the guy that keeps our offense together.”Justin Miller (7-1) allowed one unearned run in the fifth in relief of Stephen Strasburg, who was pulled after throwing 100 pitches over four innings. Strasburg gave up a run on three hits and four walks while striking out five and hitting a batter.Strasburg hasn’t lost since returning from the disabled list on Aug. 22.Peter O’Brien had two hits for Miami, which had won three straight. The Marlins left 10 men on base, five in the first two innings.“Yeah we had a lot of chances,” Marlins manager Don Mattingly said. “(Strasburg) threw close to 40 (pitches) in the first and had guys out there. Even after they score we still got guys out there, have a chance to get right back in it there and not able to do anything.”Alcantara allowed six runs on seven hits and five walks in four innings.The Nationals trailed 1-0 in the first when Rendon’s double scored Eaton and Harper.QUOTABLE“It’s sad that he doesn’t get the recognition that he should as one of the best third basemen in the game. I think it’s not fair because he definitely is a big-time player — a superstar player — every single day” — Harper on Rendon.TRAINER’S ROOMMarlins: Mattingly expects RHP Jose Urena, who experienced leg cramps last time out, to make his next scheduled start Friday in New York. “He ran yesterday,” Mattingly said. “It looks like he’s going to be fine. He’s getting an extra day (Thursday) anyway. I think he’ll start.”Nationals: RHP Tanner Roark went home Sunday to be with his wife after the recent birth of their third child. He is still slated to start Wednesday.UP NEXTMarlins: RHP Jeff Brigham (0-3, 5.84) makes his fourth major league start and first against Washington.Nationals: RHP Max Scherzer (17-7, 2.57) needs 10 strikeouts to reach 300 for the season. He’s 4-0 with a 2.67 ERA against the Marlins in 2018.
