For what it's worth, this game has not been very entertaining. Napworthy, even.

 

The combination of Morneau whispering and Odorizzi pitching put me to sleep for the first four innings.

Schoop battling Kepler for the biggest disappointment so far through 1.5 games. How many times is this team going to strike out? Is this part of Falvine's strategy? Just swing hard and close your eyes? 

 

Or maybe Bauer's just got his good stuff today, guy did have a 2.21 ERA last year. But geez.

Me, too. And here I was excited I’d be able to get in the whole game before work. Guess I called that wrong.

Why did theTwins DFA Skeetah for a goose?

No shizzle ... I always voted for Skeeta ... Moved on to Babe at the opener and won a free 12 pack of Pepsi Max

Too early to lock up Wes Johnson to a lifetime contract?

Too late. We missed the boat on that opportunity approximately 47 years ago.

Kepler has yet to strike out this year so I don’t see why he is mentioned in that same thought.

Bauer has been a new pitcher since the 2017 ASB. He more or less ditched his ineffective cutter and then his sinker while adding a very mean slider. With his previous mix of pitches his K/9 sat in the 7-8 range, but with the new one he's sitting somewhere around 11. If his arm can withstand the slider, he's a perennial All-Star.

I'm not going to be too hard on the Twins for not warming up to Wes sooner. The Timberwolves passed on him after only two seasons.
