GAME THREAD: Twins @ Royals, 4/19/22, 7:10pm CST

[D. Hocking]

I just got home about an inning ago to turn the game on (which I can actually watch because it is on the CW, because the Wolves are desecrating Balley's tonight).  Any talk of when Buxton might return?

Must be still on the juice to last this long

Low mileage on the right arm, too.

[Vanimal46]

Someone didn’t change the programmed commercial cut aways at the CW studios… I imagine some poor sap is sitting there hitting an override button every time it happens. 

[David HK]

This Barlow looks like he wants a quick inning to get back to cooking up in his trailer...

Welp. This hasn’t looked like the same Tyler Duffey so far this year.

Looks like last year's version to me.

 

Totally unwarranted speculation: Duffey looks to me like someone who was possibly benefiting from grip enhancers. Velo and "ride" down, breaking ball rolling...

[Aggies7]

The twins need to get some crazy haired relievers. Seems like any team with a bullpen worth anything has at least one or two

Threw a nasty breaking (ball) bad to Larnach.

[USAFChief]

Nobody post the Wild score. Recorded and will watch later.

Or anyone who fronted a 90s grunge band. Possibly the guy from “screaming trees”

This Ben Nintendo guy is another Twins killer.

[Aggies7]

Dick says there are 257 dogs in attendance at this game. Not including our roster

I have heard this guy is good with RISP.

[David HK]

Glad we've got that hella big target over there at first.

[Aggies7]

I’m not from MSP and have no idea what Tria is, but can someone beg them to change their commercial?

I’ve been wondering what was happening. That makes so much sense. Ha!

I will be there tomorrow for PT, I will pass your displeasure along to my Physical Therapist. I’m sure she will care deeply

[Aggies7]

Romero will be great until next year when they enforce pitch clock rules.

Well she should, they’re a giant pain in my neck

Can really run down  balls in the outfield, too, but no arm whatsoever.

That was a pretty deep pull. You nearly lost me there.

I would LOVE to play this game but that’s the only song I know

Perhaps it won't be grandfathered if this game hasn't ended by then.

Are people prepared for Sano to PH for Jeffers?

They'd lose the DH.
