Seriously though, Buxton who? :)

Next year we only need 4 outfielders: Rosario, Buxton, Kepler and Cave. Robbie G. should be on this month's sell list.

Something is seriously wrong here. There are six batters in the Twins lineup with BAs of .260 or higher.

 

I thought their quota was two.

I am saying this way too early and the lead is not big enough,but they are also in danger or winning two in a row and not losing a series.  It is like it is upside down world.

Ok- besides the nice offensive production, I’ve been watching the defensively “inept” Garver tonight. Seems like he has handles pitches in the dirt well, attempts to frame pitches out of the strike zone, and appears to be handling Lynn well so far. He has also been on base twice. I’d appreciate objective critiques from now on, so I can see why he sucks so bad........

We would probably win 120 games if we faced Baltimore 162 times a year

More like 140. It's a definite uplift to a team's morale when the worst team in the majors comes to town with the second worst team following.

Dozier didn't even bother to swing once last at bat. 2 balls and 3 called strike. I don't think any contending teams would want him in their lineup. He absolutely has no trade value.

Even a blind squirrel finds an Oriole now and again.

True, there was nobody on base but that pitch that clanked off his glove should have been an easy one to catch.

Here's something you won't see every day. Rochester is teaming up with a local zoo and having a Naked Mole Rat hat giveaway on 16 July.

So, every team in the AL gets to face Baltimore 162 times, the Twins would still finish middle of the pack :)

 

But not as bad as Baltimore, their record would be like 374-2105 and two thousand games out of first

Hey, I've been called a "mole rat" in the past. Maybe the Rochester Red Wings will invite me to a game? :)

Put Astudillo in and take either Morrison or Dozier out we now have 7 batters in the Twins lineup with BAs of .260 or higher.
