Well, we're at the halfway point of the season. Is this a playoff team? It's almost certainly not a division winner.

We will be able to put that division crown to bed by Sunday.

 

Or.. will the Trojan (Horse) helmet bring a surprise?

To be fair the Twins were a potential division winner in the same fashion that every single team is optimistic in Spring Training. Go Whie Sox.

Realism suggested a potential to find a path to a playoff spot. Despite the current tumble, there is still an outside shot the Twins benefit from improved play, luck, and misfortune falling upon various other AL teams which results in a playoff spot for the Twins. Falvey is thinking that anyway.

For today, SWR for the win.

Not trojaning the helmet has definitely been known to bring surprises.

Also Bobby:

No announcement yet but the Twins game against the Mariners will start in a delay with rain in the forecast.

Tarp is still on the field and no pitchers are warming up.

A lot of rain moving into the area...not sure if we'll get this one in. 

The strong storms should stay south of Minneapolis today. It’s a light rain in my neck of the woods right now

Bobby Nightengale:

Royce Lewis ran the bases pregame today and he’s scheduled to begin a rehab assignment with the St. Paul Saints on Friday.

Sure hope Lewis is allowed a full ramp up and healing this time around. Let Royce get comfortable catching and throwing the ball, swinging the bat as if he intends to hit, and running the bases at full speed. Last time around he was an automatic out for the Saints, couldn't field his position when he was out there, and jogged so slowly there were immediate questions from the opponent's announcers. If Royce is fully healed and gets a couple of weeks in, he could be ready to play in two weeks or so.

Oh boy, it sounds like it could be a while....

Wanna get away?

Gotta wait. Maybe the tridents have been sent ahead already.

It's a good thing there's no rain tomorrow; I'll be at the Saints game. It seems that baseball games in June have been hit or miss this year, and mostly a miss.

So healthy Royce in 2 weeks means hamstring re-injury in 5 weeks.

Sounds like the bulk of his playing career so far.

Hopefully they keep him in St Paul through the ASB. He can fly with the team to Colorado for that series.

Here's the Royce Lewis sequence so far:

Missed 35

Played 30

Missed 20 (hypothetical next 7 games)

🔜 Played 15

🔜 Missed 10

🔜 Played 5

Translation: Royce is trending toward a point where he plays zero games and misses zero games — also known as season shutdown, which will happen on game 115....

 

Game 115 lands on Monday, August 11, in the Bronx.

Don't forget the mental break after less than 100 at bats.
