Adding Bader, Keaschall and Keirsey does improve team speed and athleticism. It's good to add, especially since the Twins had so little speed last year.

This could have been such a feel good game to win. Great debut for Keaschall, solid start for Paddock and three straight wins. This sucks.

I've always thought Gant should have been ejected and fined for his vicious leg whip into poor Kent Hrbek's ... um... man parts. A clear, deliberate attempt to injure our first baseman.

Sands is not the guy you want in the 8th inning, and Brock Stewart isn't pitching in rehab games yet... the bullpen is shallower than we thought. At least Varland has looked serviceable lately, but Alcala (who was the 7th inning guy last year) isn't going to help anytime soon.

Unforgiveable considering the spark and fire shown in this game with Keaschall performing well on national TV. A 3rd straight win could have turned things around. You can't throw away games like this, they just break a team. 

Another example by the way of the Twins giving away at bats late in a game they seem to have thought they'd wrapped up. That awful Astros game they stopped trying when they were up 7-1 and it came back and bit them, too. 

Blow it up. More Keaschall, less everyone else.

Not sure how Jax can even look his teammates in the eye at this point. Team would legitimately be .500 without him. And Falvey and co. continually get burned buying high on relievers yet they refuse to sell one at peak value.

Do long relief pitchers still exist, or is it only the Twins do not have one?

This is pretty much my opinion. Felt like maybe we had turned a corner with the offense looking better. This might be the worst loss yet, considering the circumstances

 Brock Stewart has pitched in multiple rehab games already.

Well, the Braves are only the third worst team in baseball right now, the Twins are catching them.
