Game Thread (9/26): Twins vs. Detroit, 7:10 pm CT

I just posted a thread on the main forum suggesting that Astudillo play all 9 positions in a game. This would be so fun to watch that we could have the best game thread in history.

At his current K rate of 2.6%, 500 Astudillo plate appearances would result in 13 strikeouts.

 

13.

 

In other words, he could strike out in every at bat of the opening 3 game series (didn't Carlos Gomez do that once?), and then go the entire rest of the season without a K.

Buck Farmer in to pitch.

 

Careful with your spoonerisms, everyone!!

Three hits for Astudillo tonight.

Or in other words, a weekend series for Sano.

Problematically, the Twins lack enough other players to do that. Because other players would either have to be shuffled in or shuffled to other positions.

This being the American league...

 

Has anyone ever played all 10 positions in a game?
