Wait he was knocked out?

Most of his recent at-bats give me the appearance that he's more than a little woozy every time he steps to the plate.

In general I believe in sending a guy with 2 outs. 

But...there needs to be at least some small chance.

And sorry to be late to the keyboard, friends. I was busy getting 30 pounds of pork belly ready for the smoker for tomorrow afternoon. By game time, I should be knee deep in bacon. 

I'd take some, as I may live within reasonable proximity to you.

Milwaukee has been on a slide also, since trading Hader. 

Stuff like that is just a little too fancy for my taste.

If you are gonna be knee deep in anything I guess bacon is a good choice.

Buxton ,- on that last swing, it was a perfect pitch to go Middle -RIGHT Side,  He is in 100% pull mode, 

[mrtwinsfan]

Thanx Ump,   missed a strikeout call, 

[AussieG]

Hopefully Gray, Archer, Bundy and Ryan are taking notes

He's playing, just been up and down this year.  Now that the Angels got rid of Marsh he will probably get more and more chances to play.

Midway between South Bend and Fort Wayne. 

And I'm with you on your location note. When people ask where I'm from, I say, "I've lived in Indiana for 36 years, but I'm from Iowa." 

[Twodogs]

I suppose it's time for Rocco to pull Mahle since he's at like 68 pitches already.

[Danchat]

GIO!!!

[AussieG]

Gioooooohhh

I live in north suburban Indy (which is what i tell others), being a Minnesotan living out here for nearly 32 years.

"Getting 30 pounds of pork belly ready for the smoker" is what I call waddling my fat self out to smoke a brisket.

I'm not brave enough to take on 30 pounds of pork belly, either eating or smoking.

Beware the “toolsy” high school first rounder.

In his defense, he’s still 23 and just getting started given the injuries, etc.

7 would be a season high for the Twins?

Her last album did well but she got divorced last year.

What a voice though— best dugout chatter in the game!

[mrtwinsfan]

My vote -- leave Mahle in to at least start the 7th, he got thru the  #4 hitter, and his season stats say he is better thiird  time thru than the 2nnd

[USAFChief]

I suspect that was Mahle's last hitter.

If so, good job Tyler. 

I'd be ok with that, too.
