Jax received a raw deal last night. I liked the vote of confidence from Baldelli by trotting him back out there for the fifth, at which point Jax induced what should have been three outs had Arraez not looped that terrible throw away from first base.

The 2022 Twins need to focus on actual POSITION players. I don't see space for the likes of all of Larnach, Sano, Rooker, and Arraez all on the same roster.
