There has GOT to be a way to get that black hole Farmer out of the regular lineup.

As I was saying... 😂

89 pitches in 3 innings from this Angels "piggyback" combo. 

might be 200 pitch night

Julien needs to not swing so hard his helmet comes off - that haircut needs to stay hidden.  It's like a bowl cut, except the barber used the batting helmet instead of a bowl.  

[mrtwinsfan]

3 rd inning, feels like 7-8

It really is a bad haircut. As a child of the 90s, it reminds me of all my classmates

I do too. I don't know if he would wear well over 162 games. But I really like him on an occasional basis.

They used him as a sideline correspondent in the past and I liked it.

My advice to Chris Paddack so far tonight would be the same as the advice every real estate agent has given me: Location, Location, Location!

I wish it was.

Tying run at the plate.

Nice play Julien. 

[Aggies7]

Nice throw 

[stringer bell]

No way Paddack goes 5. 

[IndyTwinsFan]

Paddack probably won't make it to the 5th.  Getting ahead of a lot of hitters but can't seem to put them away.

AARGH.

I'm not yet comfortable watching him, but he's made strides since he came up last season.  Moving up the spectrum from Serviceable, to Adequate, to "About Average Maybe".

[Craig Arko]

Better keep hitting, gents.

[MMMordabito]

Plouffe doesn't know Rocco. 100 pitches? Lolololol

I feel like he doesn’t know a ton about the team. Yesterday he was telling everyone to bring their kids to the TV because buxton was up with the bases loaded lol

[ashbury]

SANTANA!!!!

[stringer bell]

A little life for the old guy.

He works west coast and other twins' locations.  Kind of hard to have an extensive background,

[$tryf4Life]

Boom. 
 

3 run jack. Nice Santana. 

[Craig Arko]

That’s the ticket.

Will 10 be enough?

Yea. I’ve always felt he would shift over to 1b eventually

Let’s keep it going. We need to pad the run deferential.
