Royce Lewis will start his rehab assignment in StP tomorrow.

Certainly they'll get better hitting lefties by watching other players try to do so.

Helluva outing by Lopez today.  Taking full advantage of the run support handed him.  Good baseball right there.

Got a hit off the D-backs position player Saturday night

Whoops didn't even know he was playing with us already. I was off the grid Saturday night. Well let's hope his hitting streak continues then.

I like this version of the 2023 Twins

seriously. this is pretty fun! Good for Correa.

Wentz may be getting the ol' "you got us into this mess, you get us out" treatment to see if they can get at least 5 out of him.

M. Cabrera, is still hitting doubles but I am surprised at his lack of home runs.

Caution--López has given away big leads a couple of times this year, once against Washington and also against Oakland. I don't expect any problems, but it has happened before.

I think I'm more surprised that he can still leg out a double, actually.

What the heck kind of jinx is that? You know better! You’d better be doing the anti-jinx dance now, which includes buying me a blizzard

8 hits, 7 runs, 4 extra base hits and only 1 K thru 2 innings.  Not a bad start boys.  Woud love to see Pablo cruise thru 7 shutout innings now.

Just working on those "worst in MLB" stats against left handers.

Or a complete game shutout?

If it's under 100 pitches sure.  Zero reason to over use starters right now.  85 pitches in 7 shutout innings would be just gravy to me.

Lol, I was going to say he already had that, let’s not get greedy … it’s a good way to jinx things
