Sun, 29 Jan 2012 16:52:58 -0800 Minnesota Twins 3B Danny Valencia studied video of his defense last year, in which he committed 18 errors, the most by a third baseman in team history since 1990. "I had a couple false steps when I would move (leaving his head out of position)," Valencia said. "I also realized I could set up a little earlier and stay lower defensively." He made corrections mechanically and worked to improve his speed and agility this offseason. He also studied his at-bats and made a small change concerning his hands; he is now bringing his hands straight back in his swing, giving him a much straighter path to the ball instead of trapping his hands toward his body, forcing a longer swing.
