We're lucky to have Pablo Lopez!

[mnfireman]

6 IP 88 pitches, 6, 7 & 8 coming up in the 7th, does he get sent back out there? I say yes, but the BP is ready, not getting loose.

I don't want to look forward too much but given that I want Lopez for later in this series if necessary, I take him out of the game.

Disagree -- bird in the hand.

He would pitch again either in game 5 on Friday or game 1 of the ALCS on full rest. He can go another inning. 

He probably can, I'm just saying that after he got through the meat of Houston's order, I hand the game to the bullpen and give Pablo just a bit more rest.

I would put him back out there. We need to shut them down. 

[Brock Beauchamp]

LOL at Jorge throwing his bat after the strike.

I don't even know what week it is in football. 😀

[Aggies7]

That’s ball 4 ffs

[BomboRivera1]

If the Twins get at least one more run this inning, I take Pablo out.  Otherwise, let him pitch the 7th.

[Aggies7]

Should have had leadoff man on for Royce

I disagree.  Pablo is feeling it and a physical freak of nature.  More tonight isnt gonna effect him next start.  Especially when they pretty much have to win so there is a next start.

[Linus]

Once again home plate umpiring is a variety pack.

He did have a let down after his CGSO

[BomboRivera1]

Need Royce to start feelin it again.  A single will do.

[howeda7]

I think I pinch run Stevenson here...

[wabene]

Lewis looking spry as all get out

[John Kelsey]

Polanco should have been scoring there. 

[SwainZag]

Correa is white hot right now

[Aggies7]

I thought that was off the train when he hit it

[glunn]

Correa no longer on this planet.

[Mortimerkenny21]

Holy mackerel C4! 

[Vanimal46]

Carlos Correa has arrived!!

Tough to do from the dugout

[mnfireman]

Lewis looks really good running the bases. Off day tomorrow, maybe he plays the field Tuesday?

[CoastiePilot08]

Correa sucks. 
 

why did we pay him?

[RpR]

Time for Jeffers to show what he has.

[BomboRivera1]

Dang.  C4 is white hot!
