You sure? IL might be an option 🤔 

I mean, to make room for Luptow, maybe.  It's not going to change my 0 for the season though so I can battle through and maintain performance.

You took the words right out of my mouth in regards to Ludlow. He's going to be that game changer for sure

How did the other 28 teams let him slip by? Unbelievable.

I was assuming you were right when i replied🤣.  What is it now?

[Jocko87]

Sheesh, that was a taser. 

[Schmoeman5]

Julien has come back to earth. His 1st K was too close to take. His 2nd was right there. Nice job Mr. Polanco 

[OptimisticTwinsFan]

Hot take (and this applies to Wallner's HBP): If you get hit with a ball and your body is outside of the batters box or that part of the body is you shouldn't get to go to first base. 

[Schmoeman5]

Wallner at least attempted by raising his arms. Gurriel leaned into his

The rule as written is fine, it just needs enforced a little more.  Batters have to get the benefit of the doubt in the high 90's+ but there are several times I'd have called for the batter to stay here.

I'm hoping Julien is more protective with two strikes but that first called strike three was way low. Also mlb.com has adjusted their online box to make all strike calls look like strikes, so it doesn't help to look there any longer. If you are watching you can see the lower zone pretty clearly by the bottom of the knees. MLB needs the challenge system, at a minimum, next year. I was never a fan of all of the interference by technology, but have seen enough to switch my opinion.

But, yeah, Julien needs to hit. So does Wallner.

Kelly pitches a little like Joe Ryan when he's on

The website says Gallo just struck out. That can’t be right, I assume there is a glitch

You skipped "is it plugged in?"

[tony&rodney]

The Snakes put the bat on the ball with two strikes, hit a few bloops, and score a run. Two strike approach is not living in the past.

[USAFChief]

I think Gallo has cemented his position as my least favorite Twin of all time. 

Tommy Herr, move over

Ron Davis, move down the bench

there's a new leader

2 runs in five innings for Ober. Not bad, all things considered.

It was nice to see him finish strong though the middle of the order.
