I was never good at commercial branding...

 

You're more of an amateur brander?

Overturned home runs at Yankee stadium.

[ashbury]

We have a major leaguer playing SS.

[mrtwinsfan]

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Or perhaps as a catcher he got credit... er blamed for framing others' homers?

It seems the strikes & balls calling is favoring Ragans

Pablo got a gift strike just now.

[weneedneshek]

Hey, I was looking for one of those, but I couldn't find one anywhere. Do you know if they're carried by Amazon? Ebay? Walmart?

[IndianaTwin]

Much-maligned Margot batting 1.000. 

[PDX Twin]

Nice that our lead-off hitter takes some pitches so that his teammates can see the pitcher. Two pitches --- two outs.

[Mike Sixel]

Mike
4:40    Are the Twins the most truest of true outcome teams?
Davy Andrews
4:40    That was certainly their MO last season, but I would imagine they'll be less so without Gallo and MAT.

[Azviking101]

Byron…I know you love swinging at that first pitch but come on

this isn’t a video game. 

[mrtwinsfan]

Buxton , way to be Patient--  again

Laz 'R Us.

[RocRedWing]

great snag by the ball boy

[Parfigliano]

They still got their K game.

[ashbury]

Lewis is slumping.  The OPS is dropping fast.

[IndianaTwin]

Lewis’s OPS dropping like crazy. 

EDIT: Like Ash said.

Royce Lewis 5.000 OPS season still on the menu

Royce Lewis 1.000 AVG season still on the menu

Their K game is their F game.

[IndianaTwin]

Went on vacation this winter. Visited the Van Tropp family homestead. Visited the maintenance shed, where I saw there was an unused tool attached to the work bench. 

It was an idle vice.

[USAFChief]

Cue "Lewis OPS dropping" one liners

just as bad with margot on base, i wonder if his teammates would like to see his pick off moves, my guess is YES

How did his OPS drop by 1.5 in one PA? That's insanity!

[PDX Twin]

No nice things for us...

[rwilfong86]

NOOOOOO

[bighat]

Oh no, that's a hammy. 

[ib uk]

****ing hell. Lewis down already

[ashbury]

"There's no limping in baseball!"

[rwilfong86]

Well, that was less than ideal.
