Excited to get some consistent healthy ABs from Sanchez. I really believe he's going to heat up here.

[Mill1634]

Urshella's bat has really gone cold. Still getting on base at a decent clip, but he isn't driving the ball at all. Only 2 XBH on the year. And man, is he slow.

Douse him in some gasoline and eally watch him heat up !!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Mill1634]

Buxton catches that...

[Schmoeman5]

??? Gasoline

[Azviking101]

Right when I was about to give Celestino some praise... what a terrible jump and he sure does not have Buxton speed.

The B team really gets exposed

No

I don’t have much faith in bundy being effective all season long

Yes, it's a petroleum based fuel used in many consumer level, internal combustion engines.  But that's not important right now.

[Aggies7]

Justin thinks bundy is struggling because he hasn’t pitched in Baltimore in a long time.

 

lol

Not sure I'd go that far. He's a bad hitter, nor has he really flashed the ability to steal bags. He does seem to be learning the OF quickly, but he's nothing more than a 5th OF/emergency MIF. I would be surprised if he survives the roster through the trade deadline. 

While I kind of agree with you,  I would add that if Nick were to be DFAed, there is almost no chance he would be unclaimed. He’s become an infielder-outfielder and he provides speed. I think he was 10-11 stealing bases last year, but is 0-2 this year. 

[wsnydes]

Perhaps it's the O's turn to be the gifter that gives the runs they scored right back.

These AL East Little League parks can be challenging for pitchers

[PDX Twin]

No swing and miss from Bundy tonight.

Walks are walks in any park

[CRF]

I think Ted Bundy is gonna kill us.

[stringer bell]

This inning is not going well. 

[Guest]

Maybe we should re-schedule Buxton’s “day off” when we have people like Kepler out… idk that’s just me. 

[Aggies7]

I have to believe the rotation look like this by july

 

ryan

gray

ober

paddack

winder

True, but if he’s nibbling….

[bighat]

Bundy struggling as bad as we've seen a Twins starter all year right now, along with his last outing. The guy seems rattled ever since that Celestino misplay.

Shine and fairy dust is coming off Mr. Bundy in his past couple outings. Looks very hittable and doesn't have any control either.

 

[chaderic20]

Nice play by Arraez

[Mill1634]

Bundy's defense is doing him now favors. 

[Aggies7]

Lots of hard contact but Miranda has to have that

[bighat]

Defense not helping at all. Pretty bad effort all around from the Twins any way you look at it.

[Mill1634]

Would've been really big to hold the O's to 3. The Twins are still capable of coming back, but they can't afford to give up any more runs. 

[LVTwinsfan]

Error

[Aggies7]

the shine is off mr bundy
