Royals (Ragans) vs Twins (Varland): 8/14/24, 12:10pm

[Mortimerkenny21]

I guess we scored all our runs yesterday, didn't save any for today. Bummer man.

[exeoud]

Team is content with series splits or "2 out of 3" and lets off the gas. Going to come back and bite us.

31 pitches already for Ragans

 

Yeah, at this rate he could throw both games of a doubleheader.

Stat guys out there...how are we on getaway days? Sure seems to me that we suck, when it comes to them. 

They're 7-2 in the last games of homestands, if that means anything to you. 

[insagt1]

decent 4th for Varland. Guess he will make it to the 5th! Twins bats however look like fly-swatters so far. Lets get it going.

Louie needed that double play. LFG Twins!

[stringer bell]

Quick fourth for Louie with the GDP. Ragans looks dominant, but that could change in a blink.

Slamtana⚾️

[Patzky]

Slamtana is so timely.

[Mortimerkenny21]

There we go Santana!!

[CRF]

Ok...there's one!

[Craig Arko]

Signs of life.

Audra’s update seems to indicate an IL stint is likely. Julien would be the default choice to be recalled, unless they go off the 40-man for Keirsey Jr. 

Nothing against Julien but Keirsey has been long overdue for a call up. I think they're afraid he might show up Margot. Which wouldn't be hard to do.

[Mortimerkenny21]

Jose, you want to hit one too?!?

[Aggies7]

Just saw the news on JJ McCarthy. The home run can’t make me feel less ill than I do at the moment 

[Doctor Gast]

Come on Jeffers you're due!

Big wiff way out of the zone!

[Twins_Fan_in_NJ]

Twins have to keep it to a run (or two) and get into the Royals' bullpen. Game can be had late.

[Doctor Gast]

Come on guys you gotta make em count

[SD happy]

Geez, Jeffers!

Has it been 9 months already?

[insagt1]

ugh--Jeffers swung at a pitch as high as the Empire State Building on what should have been ball 4. Momentum killer after two great AB's by Santana and Miranda.

[Twins_Fan_in_NJ]

Jeffers is completely lost. Thought he was showing signs of breaking out, but short-lived. Vazquez the much better options right now.

I hate to agree, but you're right. 

[Twins_Fan_in_NJ]

Isbel approaching 'lil Nicky Lopez levels of pesty and Witt Jr. batting 3rd this inning. Hopefully Louie can make it through and turn it over to the pen.

[USAFChief]

How the heck do you give up 2 hits to Adam Frazier??

[USAFChief]

That's the worst CF play you'll ever see. 

[insagt1]

any idea when Carlos can play again? And does Buck really need to go on the IL? Twins news sparse over here in Western NY!

Varland in trouble again.

[Twins_Fan_in_NJ]

Not looking good for Louie to finish this inning.

Same as the pitch Witt Jr. hit for a homer.
