Two baserunners this inning!  Makes up for none in the fourth.  Still need to push a run across though.

Why?

[RickOShea]

Mr. Pagan is now on center stage.

[LVTwinsfan]

Pagan needs a good outing

[CRF]

Time for a Pagan ritual. 

[ashbury]

It's the Emilio Pagan Experience!  Strap in tight, everybody.  Keep your arms inside the car at all times.

2 runs in 5 innings for Archer, certainly could have been worse!

I'd take that every time. Hopefully they let him go that long more often. 

Don't care how Pagan does, I still cut him the day Moran can come back. Or even Sanchez.

3 to 2.

[Tlaker]

[CRF]

Only if you're referring to someone's blood pressure.

I have a feeling Pagan isn't going anywhere and would wager he is back on the club next season as well.

No reason to make excuses for Polanco dropping the ball.

Sadface. Not at you, but the thought. He's been the worst RP in the have for a couple years, give or take.

That was a clanker

[RickOShea]

I think Perk needs to listen  to some of the interviews by Vin Scully.  I think he could benefit if he took on Scully's method of knowing when to be quiet and let the crowd noise tell the story.  Unless, Perk is getting paid by the word.

[RickOShea]

Boy, this really clogs the toilet. At least, at first impression.  Gordon going to warm up?

[CRF]

Like Sands through the hourglass...these are the days of our lives. 

[ashbury]

Is Pagan injured?  I had a snarky meme all set up to post, but not if he's hurt.  Dang.

[mrtwinsfan]

Hope he is not hurt, But pleez we gotta be the most pampering team i have ever seen,   Remembering when Mauer went thru what nobody knew, so the Term Bi-lateral ?? was made up, since them days how many new Medical terms have been used ?? its Crazy

Twins sans Pagan, now count on Sands.

[CRF]

It pains me to say it...but I'd rather have Pagan in there.

It's likely he's injured, and you're saying he's pampered? Harsh 

 

[CRF]

WHEW! We threw Sands on the fire.
