On the bright side, both Lee and Jenkins started rehab assignments today. Which is nice.

We need R. Lewis back soon.

Span is worse, if you can believe that.

Why does a catcher frame a pitch on a swing and a miss?

I'm thinking to givr the ump a continuous reinforcement or  force of habit by catcher.

JFC.

Just LOVE these guys swinging at pitches in the dirt...then taking one right down broadway for strike three!

Yep. He has talked substantially and has yet to say anything meaningful. Honestly I wish they would let Provus do the games alone. 

[Aggies7]

Who’s this Parker fella shutting us down? Peter?

Isn't that good? He's going to homer in his next ab. 😳 

[Doctor Gast]

Margot batting 3rd. Maybe we have a chance.

Poor Cory prolly longing for the good old days paired with Danny.

Both tv and radio have stunk this year 

[Aggies7]

I still like Provus enough that the overall TV broadcast is fine. His "A" brings the broadcast average up to a solid "C." Maybe "B-" with Morneau.

[Doctor Gast]

It's time for the Twins to trip the plow.

I agree. I had to listen to Atteberry for a couple innings tonight and couldn't take it anymore. Just terrible. He's got Perk with him tonight, who I like. Then, I get home to be treated to Smalley and Spannie. UGH!

[Aggies7]

Not gonna be long now before “Pablo day” joins the sausage, the life vests, the Bomba squad, taking pictures behind the mound, and whatever other cheesey gimmick the team has come up with

In what way did the stink get worse.  Is the stink worse or what stink they are reporting about?

I  like Provos and justin but i think Justin could be helped by having a 3rd who would offset Justin thinking he needs to Talk to much, ,

And where’s gladden been? I know he’s nobody’s favorite but I enjoyed the consistency of at least having him there nightly. It’s been a revolving door for both broadcasts

Thank God for cups!

I do have to point out that Perkins said it was a “terrible send by watkins”. I can respect that
