However, Gio DID make a bad baserunning play when he didn't advance to second on the throw home on his single. 

Eh, I don’t think that was necessarily a sure thing

Many opportunities that Jeffers could have called for the change up for SOs but never called for the change up. He didn't call for the change up all game, bad mistake.

Archer threw 6 changeups (9%) against a lineup that featured 7 right handed hitters. Throughout the year, he's thrown it 11% of the time, and only twice to righties in 79 pitches. The game calling was completely in line with what we've seen for Archer this entire year.

The Twins have been taking very good PAs tonight. 

We got to Gausman, we got to the starter last night .,. I like how this offense has been handling good pitchers

If I was GM, I’d try to buy low on Cortes. I’d offer the Yankees Jeffers for him straight up, but the offer expires at the end of the inning.

Perfect, it's all going according to plan... ahem. Don't mind me.

In all seriousness, it's been great to see our hitters take on the likes of Kikuchi, Gausman, Taillon, and Cortes and put up some runs. Maybe the Tigers series was a blip on the radar and not a trend.

Didn't they already get Refsnyder?

Add this on to what the lineup did to Gausman, and they've been locked in with three consecutive great showings. Now they need to do what they didn't do last night and add on to the Yankees "B" bullpen arms.

Whole different vibe when CC isn't playing. Swagger factor is gone when he's gone.

I think you meant Rortvedt. It was a pretty lopsided proposal though. Cortes and Roetvedt coming back sounds fair now.
