Kwan lol

[USAFChief]

Well that's a start.

[RpR]

First pitch , Kepler is trying too hard.

[Guest]

Like sooo many Twins he can perform, but not in the clutch.

It's that Chief stage presence.

You all owe Mr Julien an apology.

Actually no. My anger was his lack of swinging. If anything he proved my point.

I'm saving all of mine to send at once; wrote up Jeffers' yesterday. Still waiting on Santana, Castro, Kepler, Margot, Wallner, Vazquez and Farmer.

Looks lost. 
 

his next contract should be scaled to be pay more towards the second half cause apparently he is has to be terrible to start each year.

But other than that..how was the play, Mrs Lincoln?

[Winston Smith]

At least no one is over reacting this early in the season. 

[RpR]

Kirilloff and Correa are the only looking good.

[nicksaviking]

Oh boy, the radio booth is getting testy.

Gladden: Telling a story about airplanes

Atterbery: Interrupts with a question

Gladden: Can I finish?

Awkward pause.

I heard that! I was wondering if it was joking or not lol

Does Kepler have options?  He needs a stint at AAA to get straightened out unless he gets going in the balance of this series.  He is not helping at all right now, obviously.

[SteveLV]

(Hopefully the reverse jinx will work and Kepler will smash a couple balls now!)

It gets late early around here.

[Danchat]

One out short of a quality start for Lopez.

I'm afraid it will be an out and a run short.

Fumbleburk

[USAFChief]

Funderburk has never had the command necessary to succeed at the big league level. And that opinion wasn't formed today.

[stringer bell]

Funderburk didn't earn a spot this spring, he got there because of the late BP injuries. If he wants to stay, he needs to pitch better.

I know Kepler only has one hit, Wallner only has 1 hit and Julien has 3.

Patience, but Kepler does look lost , and the pitchers seem to know it as they throw crap and he swings at them.

You're a fast learner then because we all know you were born yesterday.

[IaBeanCounter]

Funderburk doesn't do well coming in with inherited runners.

[RpR]

Santana saves the day, again.

[stringer bell]

Cleveland breaks it open here. Well, kind of. My grandson's team makes better rundowns than that.

Well Joey Gallo was 0-13 on the season and now he is 4-17, so there is hope.

[MMMordabito]

What a CF that play was ...
