The bullpen is the strength of this team. 

Didn't believe it opening day. Stated that. Bunch of reclamation projects and rejects. Proving it out.

Martin should have let Castro get that one, Martin is not a Buxton!

That was obvious earlier when he got a meaningful hit

Martin got a terrible jump on the ball.

Terrible instincts in the outfield. He's a very good athlete so he'll be for the occasional web gem but he has a lot of work to do before he can be a everyday player in the OF.

[Aggies7]

Jeffers has been getting physically abused this young season

Just keep the politics, however subtle, out of it.  That's all I'm asking.

Castro stopped going for it because Martin was charging like a bull.

Sad as Castro was far, far closer to where it hit.

Run at will again , so far this year.

[Aggies7]

We’re going to have to win this in regulation, I don’t like our chances in extras 

[Muppet]

Believe it or not, the inning has started and there are still no outs.

All in Fun,  i get it !!!!!

Jeffers bat has been good so far, time to keep it up.

With the runner on 1st running on that pitch Castro went to cover 2nd and was slow to react. He's not getting there. Not on Martin.  Unless he got Popkinized 😏

Buxton is another that is ridiculously overdue for a good at-bat.

[Aggies7]

Can Byron just homer for once?

He gave it to that Kid earlier

No, he can’t.

[Aggies7]

Top 3 in the order today: 0-11 with 5 k’s 😂

[$tryf4Life]

Why would you throw Buxton anything in the zone? 
 

oh wait- they don’t.

Against AAAA

[Twins_Fan_in_NJ]

What a joke.

[RpR]

MIranda, time to show why you should stay up from AAA.

[RpR]

It is still wierd following the bame on MLB where I know what happens 20 seconds before the pitch is thrown on TV.

[Aggies7]

I can’t imagine this is going to end with a W

[Twins_Fan_in_NJ]

🤬🤬🤬

[TwinsDr2021]

Twins trying to make sure they strike out at least 10 times in the game?
