Wait a moment... Texas is using an RHP? Will wonders never cease? Might that mean Wallner and Larnach might finally be in the line up again?

But what i really want to know... Margot probably won't be leading off, but with Buxton out, one expects he is still Centerfield, so no chance to add to his prodigious body of pinch hitting... Sigh.

Still, no reason to be disappointed until it actually happens. Ya gotta have hope!

[Parfigliano]

I hope TX repeats those alien symbol adorned uniforms.

Hence the word "and" (though i did mean to use the word "same" applied to the word "lineup" so my bad in not emphasizing it)

 

Still like 3 hours until the game starts.

 

What else do people do with their time?

Nice to see the Twins giving Audra Martin a shot at playing CF. She can do it all!

Puttering is an underrated activity!

I envy this chalet for puttering.

 

If i'm not just wasting time browsing the internet (such as this site) i hope to either clean, launder, or get out and busk.

I am pleased. Larnach, Lewis, and Wallner back to back to back (how much back is that? i lost track) with the ominous potential pinch hitting of Margo looming as an ever-present possibility...

Who could ask for anything more?

[BH67]

I just looked at the Royals' schedule through the end of the season.

Home series against the Twins, Guardians and Phillies.

Road series against the Guardians, Yankees, Astros and Braves.

Arduous.

If you're right on that one...I'll be asking you to pick lotto numbers for me.

[Parfigliano]

Larnach lines out often

[TwinsCD]

Taveras ties a record held by many.

Im guessing..."Edouard Julien Are You Going To Rule Again"

[Aggies7]

Who was the last twin to sophomore slump as hard as Julien is

[TwinsCD]

Nobody else available at St. Paul besides Julien huh?  Corey Koskie went yard in a Townball game last night, can we bring him up?
