That's crazy talk. They traded the next five years of draft choices for Herschel Walker. 

Doesn't look like a good choice. He's way behind in the polls. No inside patch on Georgia legislation.

Arraez is sure a nice pinch option. Oh and thanks Dick, keep your shirt on for the next fly ball.

[Aggies7]

Dick Bremer’s depth perception is not ideal this season. The tigers homer, he reacted like it was a routine fly. He just bremergasmed on buxtons fly out 15’ in front of the track

I was 5 in ‘91 so I have known nothing but disappointment

I just turned 50 and was at game 7 in 87 and 91. You're still young.

Be patient and quit acting like a Millennial. (Just kidding if you're a Millennial). 

[Mill1634]

Would be nice if Correa was playing like guy we were paying 35M to play, and not a guy who should be paying us 35M

[stringer bell]

Polanco is due!

Reading comprehension and technical difficulties.

[Aggies7]

Maybe Correa just loves it so much in minnesota that he wants to make sure no other team signs him after this year

[Mill1634]

Polanco missed two middle-middle fastballs. Just not right right now. 

[Aggies7]

91 mph dead center of the plate. And a whiffff

Correa and Sano have given him a lot of cover.

[Mill1634]

If the Twins win this game, it'll be because Sano hits a walkoff homer. I have no doubt in my mind. 

[twinssporto]

I can't believe Robbie Grossman is still around. Amazing...good guy just never thought he'd still be around.

[twinssporto]

The more I see Urshela the more I like him. I think that was a good pickup for the Twins.

I had the same reaction when I heard dick van dyke is still alive

[Mill1634]

Jax with the white castle special!

Twins need him in left field, badly.

[twins_89]

The Falvey and Levine approach to building a bullpen seems to be to avoid paying anybody, then trying to piece together a working group out of a bunch of scrap heap signings and medium leverage guys. They usually find a successful mix at some point, but man that first month of the season is just brutal almost every year.

I heard he just turned 49. Amazing!

He has played well. Seems like it makes it harder for Miranda to make the majors, though.

[Mill1634]

We're 3-5 more good Jax innings from him being a top 3 right hander in the pen...

Miranda OPS'ing in the .600s at STP hasn't made it much of a choice yet. (Yes, I know it's early)

Agreed but they could put Miranda in LF maybe?

LOL, could not hurt.

[Mill1634]

Did the ump really just miss that...?

[twinssporto]

Everyone relax. We got this....

[Aggies7]

Where was that pitch LOL

Thielbar needs to be released asap.

Agreed!

Too down the middle. Ump couldn't believe Larnach didn't swing. 

[Aggies7]

The twins can’t ever sign good arms for the pen, but the tigers can go out and sign Predator  and make him a closer
