Uh oh, I just heard the bells for Duran's entrance.

Sounds like another “he needs work” outing. Hopefully this time it also leads to needing him a couple more games in a row

Hasn’t pitched since Sunday, so okay. 

Hopefully it can be a spiffy eight pitches or so.

.458 OPS pinch hitter.  Uncle own the team?

It looks very much like Friday/Saturday will be a wash as far as the Central is concerned. Phils up 8-2, Guards all over Texas and the Twins in control 6-0. Everybody goes 1-1.  

But Royals losing big.

I'm sorry, I don't understand burning Jax and Duran here when there's no off day on Monday. I know Rocco is probably terrified because of the meltdowns we've had this week but Sands/Thielbar would have held this down just fine. Hell, even Henriquez would probably be just fine.

Hopefully, those 16 pitches don't render Duran unavailable for tomorrow.

And now, off to the recording. 

Let’s go, Fe-ver. 

G’night, all.

Ace Pablo returning would be a welcome sight.

I wonder if that is the case he only threw 3 fastballs according to GameDay

I wonder if the extra day of rest helped Pablo. I know the Twins would like to use their best starters as much as possible, but even the best pitchers seem to benefit from extra rest and fewer pitches these days.
