Game Thread: Twins (Maeda) @ Mariners (Castillo), 7/19/23 @ 8:40 CT

[jkcarew]

Julio with a pretty significant sophomore slump. Not quite Miranda-like…but bad.

[ashbury]

"Shorter ballgames call for shorter beers. Stream your favorite..."

Not the phrasing I would have chosen, but then I'm not a marketing professional.

I would comment on Maeda's outing thus far but I don't want to jinx it.

[Mortimerkenny21]

Meada hitting 93.4mph on FB. Wasn't at one point he was barely hitting 90? Or am I remembering wrong?

2005: Carlos Silva’s 74-pitch Complete Game

May 20, 2005    Against Seattle,  Maeda got me thinking about this,  remember it well,

Julien makes a play

He got bailed out an inning ago by Kirilloff, yet again, with no comment by the broadcast team unless I missed something.

Oh my, Julien!!

Eduard Julien looks very, very good right now. His 2B defense has even improved.

You're right. He had Kirilloff all twisted on that. But he just homered

[USAFChief]

Edouard Julien.

Great hitter, or greatest in Twins history?

I'd comment about ROY but I don't want to jinx it.

Right about now MarinersDaily probably sounds a lot like Twins Daily usually does. "Two bleeping days in a row we can't hit 92!? DFA erybody!"

[wabene]

Julien is a one man show with incredible bat speed! 

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

I think Julien is possessed by the devil

(the good devil who does baseball)

[NotAboutWinning]

Oh my, Kepler!!

1.000+ OPS can make any glove look good.

[cHawk]

We have discovered Kepler's fourth law of planetary motion. However, this law may be more applicable to the motion of a baseball.

[RpR]

Keep Julien in front of Kepler, seems to be a connection there.

Yes

Thanks. 

[tony&rodney]

Well now, this is fun.

[wabene]

About time other NATO members start pulling their weight, eh? 

[Nine of twelve]

I would comment about Kepler's resurgence lasting the rest of the season but I don't want to jinx it.
