Tigers (Valdez) vs Twins (Ober): 4/8/26, 6:40pm

[Brock Beauchamp]

Taj Bradley was one of only two Twins I was legitimately interested in seeing this season (beyond Buxton, Jeffers, etc). The other was Abel, so I'm totally batting .500.

It happens moderately often, actually.

Okay, Bailey. Keep the win streak going!

[stringer bell]

Another tough assignment for the hitters. There have been some signs, but still a lot of frustration, particularly against left handed pitching. I didn't think they'd see .500 again this year, but a win tonight puts them at 6-6.

[stringer bell]

I'm guessing they will use the exact same lineup 1-9.

One thread for positive comments, and one thread for negative comments.

Three things I've seen from Shelty so far that I far prefer vs. Rocco: More consistent starting line-ups; fewer early/mid-game pinch hitters; and allowing starters to go further in to games w/ more pitches.

I believe they did just that

TC starting pitching above average.  TC hitting well below average.

Which thread gets this comment?

I'm assuming mine is the negative comments 🥲😤

Bailey seems to be a 4 inning max --  how long do they keep running him out there ?/

Remember a couple of seasons ago when it seemed like whoever was in the cover of the Twins magazine ended up hurt? Fingers crossed Shelty doesn't end up needing Tommy John surgery.

Will Acton see action tonight?  Or vice versa?

Will he pinch pitch for someone?

Tot hasn't changed since Sun...

I guess the tots are left as an exercise to the reader?

Still in the mood for obscure Dr. Demento type music...

Uh oh, looks like someone screwed up. And it wasn't me, so I'm going to call it out.

Fish heads, eat them up, yum. 🐠

I don't recognize the name of the umpire** behind the plate this evening. Rookie? Keep Wallner's challenge cap under wraps. 

Also 15 mph winds blowing out per box score. Could he a thawed out fun game!
