All right, I'm signing off, and handing a nice lead over to you all. Protect it.

 

Oh, and...

 

KEPLER !!!!

[LVTwinsfan]

I believe Justin’s take is correct..... Kepler wouldn’t have faced Plutko last inning

Let's take this one boys, send a message

[IndianaTwin]

Per radio guys, it’s only Kepler’s second career homer to left.

TV guy said the same, ole Dick

[twinsnorth49]

That first strike was horsehit. Made Sano have to swing at that last one. 

[yarnivek1972]

Bottom of order due for Cleveland. Odorizzi one more with someone warming if they get a guy on?

[David HK]

 

I believe Justin’s take is correct

Correct in its assumption. There's no way to say he would have hit a grand slam, and the possibility against a side-winding Loogy is far less. But the question is, which would you rather have, Kepler coming up with the bases loaded, or leading off an inning?

 

I'd take option A.

[LVTwinsfan]

So when is Puigs appeal

well he hit a home run, no guarantee he would have done anything last inning, so I’m good with how it turned out

Cookie!!!

So when is Puigs appeal

 

The 31st of Nevervember.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Are we there yet?

 

Wake me when we're there...

[wabene]

I want to beat Piug

[twinsnorth49]

Ok, we're even ump

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Angels beat Red sox 12-4.

 

That’s good news for the Twins wild card aspirations....

 

 

 

 

.... I’ll see myself out.

[TwinsCD]

One more baserunner and someone better be trotting in from the pen.

[wabene]

I'm starting to not like Cleveland

[IndianaTwin]

So when is Puigs appeal

Cleveland plays Boston, Yankees, Mets, Royals. It’s hard to see it waiting until the Royals series, so don’t be surprised if he drops the appeal on Monday and sits out against Boston with the way they are playing.

Late bloomer?

[Riverbrian]

Hats off to Jake!!! 

[wabene]

Odo yo!!

[drock2190]

I like this call. Don't let Lindor see Odor for the 3rd time. 

 

I'm riding this decision no matter how it goes.

[Riverbrian]

 

Starting to? 

 

Myself. 

 

I have so much White Sox Hate... I don't have a lot left over to throw Cleveland's way. 

[TwinsCD]

Wasn't expecting Romo this early but I like the move.

[jz7233]

I think for next season Twins should try to sign Pineda and Odorizzi and let Perez and Gibson walk. Twins also need to get a few quality long relievers as well.

Odorizzi = Really good five inning pitcher ... Make it work, Rocco.

[twinsnorth49]

Good game Jake, greatly needed.
