Keirmeir left with an injury. Target Field eats outfielders.

[Jham]

Arraez has an 8 inch tear in his pants from a cleat on that 6 4 3. dude plays hard. already a fan fave here.

[Mill1634]

Fantastic outing from Perez. Let's get some runs now, boys!

[stringer bell]

Nice job Pérez!

[Blake]

Perez went 7? Did the pitcher whisperer strike again?

[operation mindcrime]

Cool man - I was kinda thinking about doing that. I don't live in the cities but I visit my family there a few times per year. I often consider hitting up a game solo but haven't pulled the trigger. Seems like fun to be honest, how's it going?

You and Jham should go to a game together! Then after the Twins win you new bff's should go to Perkins for some chicken and waffles!!!

WHOOSH goes Cave.

[Blake]

I find it odd to see a player like Cave rip up Triple A and be completely lost at the MLB level.

[bighat]

Time for Cave to go. Get well soon, Rosario for pete's sake.

[SpicyGarvSauce]

Jake Cave has gotta go. When Buxton is ready to be activated, he has to be the one - stick with Wade and see if he can be less than terrible compared to Cave.

[TwinsCD]

Keep Arraez, send Cave down.

[MNT1996]

Cave is a guaranteed out

Safe to say that Cave is officially a AAAA player?

[MVP Nick Punto]

WHOOSH goes Cave.

That the sound of the wind echoing in the cave?

Cave was pretty good at the MLB level last year. Not sure what's happened this year but since he's been recalled his ABs have been unwatchable. Terrible decline and it could be a career-killer.

Cave now batting .171 at 12 for 70!

Funny, I don't remember any of those 12 hits.

[VATwinsFan]

 

Keep Arraez, send Cave down.

Yep.

[HawksNest]

Man, Cave is such a waste of space. He has to be sent down immediately when Marwin/Adrianza/Buxton are ready to be activated.

 

Geez

[wabene]

Kepler is a tough sob.

[USAFChief]

Sano is three for three!!

On the up side, Cave makes Sano look good in comparison.

Gorilla steps, 

[Jham]

A month ago I'd have seen duffey come in and thought we were giving up.

[MNT1996]

I honestly liked the look of the lineup with Arraez hitting leadoff. He doesn't provide the pop that Kep has, but he has better plate discipline and more likely to take pitches. I think Arraez should bat leadoff, Polanco 2nd, Kep 3rd, and then just move everybody else down a spot.

[FLTwinsGuy]

Great start Tyler

[VATwinsFan]

Oh yeah, go ahead and hit the first batter in the 8th.

Last year Cave was 76 for 283 with 14 homers and a .269 avg! He's just fallen off a cliff!

[Cap'n Piranha]

Buxton ready-->Cave goes down

 

Marwin ready-->Wade goes down

 

Adrianza ready-->Sano or Arraez goes down
