Both teams may be into the BP before the 6th; Cortes @ 35 pitches, Ryan @ 34 pitches

But a 9 pitch inning by Ryan helps....

Great minds think alike.  

I guess there could also be other kinds of minds that think alike, but we'll stick with that one.

Question asked and answered,

[Squirrel]

Still deciding whether or not to spend money going to a game next week

[Aggies7]

Where in the heck could we find a SS hitting near the .200 mark? Can’t be many out there /s

[Aggies7]

Peppering the left field foul line ain’t we 

[Squirrel]

Are you kidding?

[Robert Floren]

Polanco looks like he'll hit .300 this year.

No, I’m not

[mnfireman]

Hope the Twins don't have to put Polanco on the IL for sore back (carrying the team)...

[SwainZag]

The rumors of Jorge's great demise were possibly overstated

They've needed someone who can get on base without Arraez 

[mrtwinsfan]

Nestor  Pllease throw it where Miranda swings

[Aggies7]

Welp Miranda got it to the outfield at least.

I feel bad for him. It’s gotta be super frustrating for him

What did the Yankee fans expect to get out of him though? Did they expect a buxton type? They gave up a below average catcher who’s been out of the game for years to get him 

There have been some great Yankee center fielders—DiMaggio, Mantle, Bernie Williams—and maybe the fans thought that Hicks would be another great player in that succession. Yes, the Twins gave him away for what turned out to be next to nothing, but Hicks signed a long-term contract and the has not produced.

Maybe we need chubby Miranda back.  Six more cheeseburgers and that's a double.

[mnfireman]

Coretes now @ 60 pitches thru 3 IP, keep making him throw.

I don't know if Polanco can hit like this all year, hopefully long enough until the next guy can.

[Aggies7]

Ryan getting some generous strike calls
