I can't remember who, but I recall someone [in the media?] saying before the season saying, "the Indians are locking Shane Bieber into their rotation? Good luck with that!" At the time, I thought that was stupid.

 

Now it's looking even dumber. Just 'cause he's not a veteran and his 2018 ERA isn't great doesn't mean putting him in the rotation was a bad idea. His peripherals in 2018 suggested improvement was coming, and it sure has this season.

So the Twins are down by three runs. Is that insurmountable or a single swing from Rosario?

I have to admit that I don't understand Twins baseball anymore.

Yes.

Halfway through the Ollie Perez appearance I was starting to worry that Dick was going to forget the obligatory 'Jesse Orosco pitched until he was a hundred and six' comment.

 

Silly me.

 

Edit: For the record, I'm generally in favor of pitching at age 106. If you're going to stick around that long anyway, you might as well make yourself useful.
