Where are these smarts coming from  ...

Heads up play on the double steal  ..

Love the way the Rays play.

Beautiful play by Correa. The execution on that relay was simply wonderful baseball.

Wallner just hit another HR, get him to Tampa and in our lineup.  Quit wasting his AB's in St. Paul.

I mean, we were in "Moneyball"

Everyone has warning track power tonight

Per MLB.com: I'd prefer this approach vs what the team did to Lewis and rush him back.  Especially since we seem to have a dearth of outfielders that can actually play the outfield at the moment.

Wallner said he expects to play at least a couple more games on his rehab assignment after Sunday. The club’s stated preference is for Wallner to play back-to-back full games before he is activated, so one plausible scenario would be for him to play Tuesday and Wednesday before joining the Twins on Friday in Seattle during the second part of the upcoming road trip.

lol, no love for Morneau with the Dancing Homer reference.

If he can play, he should be up here with the Twins.  He has 3 HR's in 13 AB's.  You are just wasting him in St. Paul

Playing with fire...

[Parfigliano]

So now excuses....

Tradition

[HarmonK03]

Up by 2 runs in the 4th inning and you play the infield in.  Who says Rocco doesn't manage with his spreadsheet.

Minor league pitching is NOT Major League pitching.

And the same thing was said last year when Wallner was kept in AAA for an extra month.  If he's healthy, play him up here.

Good to see Willi get a hit

Bad to see Keirsey next guy up

I'll reiterate that I'd rather have an OF that we are sure can actually play the outfield.  There are already too many DH's and infielders playing in the outfield.  With Bader down and uncertainty surrounding Buxton's return, I'd rather be on the side of someone that we can be more certain about putting into the field.

[USAFChief]

Wallner's rehab, with this offense, is stupid.

[Patzky]

That's more of the Joe Ryan Experience I like.

Seattle is supposed to have a pretty good staff. It'll be a test for everyone.

[Patzky]

C'mon Brooks! Channel the weekend.

[David HK]

What an amazing coincidence!  And what rotten luck-- nearly every night, the Twins run into a pitcher with the first name "Cy!" 

How often could that happen?!?

Wouldn't having an actual outfielder help alleviate that problem.

[Patzky]

Hey hey!

[Patzky]

Apply pressure at the spot

[SD happy]

Thank you!
