SWR laboring through it today too. Need him to go 5 at least.

Long relief so likely. If Sim can get out of the 4th clean and under 15 pitches maybe give him a shot at the W..

[CRF]

Not to get off topic too much, but Audra is going to sing God Bless America today, in the 7th inning break.

If we ever get to the 7th

[TwinsCD]

Lance Barrett is just guessing behind the plate again.

Public Service Announcement: Monday starts National Diarrhea Awareness Week.

Runs through Friday.

Sim throwing three feet outside doesn't invite close inspection.

[CRF]

SWR looks like his mechanics are off...he's all over the place.

Always good to be informed. Knowing is half the battle. But I heard the Diarrhea Awareness Walk didn't go so smoothly...a real crap shoot.

Better pull him. He won't get the win but you don't want to lose.

[USAFChief]

I wouldn't let SWR pitch to Robert

In related news, there's a brown out scheduled nearby if tropical storm conditions get dicey.

This 15 year old...Baldwin...his swing kind of reminds me of Yelich a bit.

[Brandon]

So he has 90 pitches thrown though 4.  I say give him 15 pitches or so for the win otherwise he’s yanked in 5th.  I would like to see him get the W.  Because he seems to get left out of decisions often when we win.

[Patzky]

Peralta not fooling anyone. Lot of noise! But nada.

Eh, he hasn't done anything to earn that 5th inning and the W.  I'd rather let someone like Dobnak or Richards get some work in and hopefully put clean innings up there.

[USAFChief]

How is Ben Nintendo only on 2nd?

 

I'd pull his ass right now.

 

That's not major league. Him or the manager. 

[USAFChief]

Wallner on base twice against a lefthander.

 

Inconceivable. 

[Patzky]

We didn't want bases loaded nobody out anyway.

[Patzky]

Cmon y'all striking out on pitches that almost hit you. Might need those runs.

[USAFChief]

Not one of Willi's better efforts.

[Patzky]

Of course the Royals wake up in the ninth with two outs . Because that's what they do.

[SD happy]

Melendez of KC just hit two out three run Homer in 9th to go up 3-2.

[thelanges5]

Tigers can’t hold the lead. Baltimore doing better. 

[Patzky]

Does every Sox batter get to a 3-2 count today or does it just seem like it?

[thelanges5]

Throw strikes Sandman!

[TwinsCD]

What part of having a big lead do our young pitchers don't understand about peppering the zone?

He's an on base machine this weekend
