Hat tip to the Twins bullpen. I give them lots of grief, today they were spectacular.

Hard to blame Gallo for that gaffe. He’s never stood at second longer than it takes to pass it on a home run trot

Rocco, if we HAVE to play Luplow, do we HAVE to bat him 3rd??

 

As in, most likely to be replaced by a good player?  3rd is fine.

Wallner in right, Hope its a sign they want to see him get better against  Leftys , For future games, And  wold rather see Kepler  batting there instead of Luplow,   Luplow cannot be justified as a bigger role going forward , Playoffs ??

I'm baffled why he's on the roster, let alone hitting anywhere near the top of the lineup

Relative small group on the Game Thread so far. Probably because several folks are already writing articles analyzing today’s Paparesta confirmation that Buxton will get some reps in CF during his rehab.

He’s on the roster because he bats right-handed and the front office completely failed to acquire someone better.

Jordan Luplow is a righty. Rangers are throwing a lefty.

 

Thats why hes in the lineup. Twins logic and strategy doesnt go deeper than surface level

Both an admission they knew they needed RH hitting, and a demonstration they're incapable of doing so.

So you're saying Luplow is a better version of Garlick. Who the Twins have touted as a lefty masher for a couple years now.
