Julien found his bat.  Raised BA and OPS by 81 and 313 respectively.

nice outing by paddack. bats will hopefully start to be roused because the pitching is there.

Something lost in the homestand is that the pitching, at least as of now, isn't a big cause for concern. Once the bullpen is at 100%, the Twins are going to be able to shorten and win a lot of close games.

Completely agree. Other than Ober's odd outing, where I'm guessing there was a tell of some kind, it's looked solid. Once Thielbar and Duran come back, it'll round nicely into form. Now if only Julien can hit 2 HRs every game...

Glad nobody took me up on that......😁

I did... I put together a contract stating acceptance of your bet. I quickly had it notarized to make it legally binding before the fact.  

Since the amount was never declared.

You owe me 3 REALLY LARGE Dollar signs! If I don't get them... I know some guys who are all named Guido who will pay you a visit.

Nice score to see coming off the airplane. Now if we get our food before we have to board the next plane, that would be nice...

How many shortstops can get into position to take the cutoff from the right field corner and throw Otani out at home?  Correa is off to a good start with the bat (for him,), but his defense has been amazing!  5 home runs in last 2 games, maybe the bats are waking up.

You were coming off an airplane during a Twins game before this year. 

I'm not sure if you are aware but in order to save you a few dollars.

There are less expensive ways to watch the Twins.

Correa has a Strong arm, saved the game.
