Tyler Thornburg.

You know what I'd like?  I'd like to tune in to the Twinks game and not see a pitcher I've never heard of before in my life.

Well you've probably heard of his dad Richard Thornburg the reporter from Die Hard. Better known as Dick

Lots of beards on the Rockies

Definition of beard from Urban Dictionary:

A boy or girl hired as a celebritys boyfriend/girlfriend by that celebritys management, usually for publicity.

Let’s dish on Charlie Blackmon. ?

Who am I to argue with the Urban Dictionary?!

Park gives all the details here Jax, including his rank: https://www.mlb.com/news/griffin-jax-called-up-by-twins

"Jax's promotion (to the rank of Captain) was disrupted by his transfer to the Air Force Reserve in 2019 to facilitate his professional baseball career, meaning that he's still 1st Lt. Griffin Jax".

Don’t really want to argue about this, but I believe he was eventually promoted to Captain. I am certain that an officer can be promoted after going into reserve status and I believe it was reported that he did receive his promotion after his wife received hers.

Thornburg is being treated like he's getting DFA'd after the game

Maybe he's proving that he belongs. Going back to back days and going multiple innings

Thornburg is at 25 pitches and nobody’s warming in the pen… interesting call.

And that was a GREAT manager decision!!! Baldelli wins the game!!! Wooohoooo!!!

chicken, chicken, rhubarb pie! :)

Twins win!

Feels so good to have a game where the bats come alive, the pitching locks down a lineup that they should, and the bullpen provides stress free baseball. Absolutely have to win tomorrow with Ryan on the bump against a bad starter once again. Just hoping we get the A lineup, but I have my doubts with a huge 5 game series coming up on the road against a team that's much more important to beat. Leave the weekend no worse standings wise than when it started.

Until tomorrow,

ENJOY YOUR CHICKEN!
