Byron is streaky - Larnach ya never know - Lee and Luke  doing okay -  other than those  what do we have ??

I know everyone hates to hear it, but we have potential at every level in the minor leagues. It's not much, but it is what it is.

[USAFChief]

Yup that was Watkins.

[Patzky]

So we have two runs in three hits today. We got two runs on eleven hits last night. 

Progress 😃

There's a difference between aggressive an reckless

Better speed with Clemens than Lee  , yes it wasn't out of the infield and yes it takes guts,  but we need runs so I'll over look reckless and say it was a gutsy play  , you got to make something happen  , the catcher is good but could have dropped the ball ...

[P Meyer]

Base loaded, 0 outs. Twins score 2. Progress?

[SS MagicMark]

Buxton's playing catch with Butler out there. 

[Chris Hove]

The twins' hitters are putting themselves in bad situations. They have missed or fouled off so many balls in the zone, and then chase a pitch out of the zone with two strikes. Aghhhhh

[1985Fan]

So many automatic outs in the lineup. Gasper, Martin, Lewis, and Clemons are not going to hit. Not much reason to think they can score more than 2 runs, let alone more than six. 

[Chris Hove]

Another one that Larnach and Buxton both just missed in the zone right down the middle.

I know , I was born at night but not last night ....

[mrtwinsfan]

  got ya 

[Blyleven2011]

Rocco definitely would have pulled pitcher Perkins in the fourth  , Athletics manager wants to see his pitcher get a win because wins do matter ...

[mrtwinsfan]

Luke got a decent eye ,  would like to see him on those outer pitches go more to right , instead of forcing a pitch over the middle that way,   Kids got a great approach  --  just wanna see him be what he can 

[P Meyer]

Brooks Lee moving that OBP up

[Patzky]

Haha Tonkin ain't got the touch 

[mrtwinsfan]

Gulf of Tomkin getting BOMBED early

[Chris Hove]

I'm sorry to keep harping on this, but that out by Keaschall was another pitch in his hot zone that ended up being an out. Good teams capitalize on those situations.
