Twins (Bradley) vs Nationals (Cavalli): 5/5/26, 5:45pm

[Brock Beauchamp]

The Nationals are once again a semi-competent team. Must be nice for them, I wonder what that feels like.

But hey, Taj Bradley tonight! That's fun.

Preliminary forecast indicates gusty winds (15-20 from SSW) blowing out at Nationals Park tonight. Hope they aren't as gusty as they were in Tampa?

When Taj runs into trouble, it is usually via the home run ball so those winds are ominous.

Mid to upper 80s as well. Watch that baseball soar.

Yeah wind whistling right up the Potomac from Reagan to the park. Might be fun. Might be an asterisk ✳️ day for the pitchers.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

I hope we win!

 

Wait a minute... Sunday was a win, no? And it ended up being a 1 run game at the end? Did we finally win a 1 run game?!

 

Hooray for us!

We passed the Peter Test!

[Patzky]

So ATL cut RP Carlos Carrasco. He's just the type of guy the Pohlads would go after.  O.OO era in two innings even.

 

Don't say I didn't warn ya.

 

[Twinsoholic]

I cannot believe the Twins did not make a roster move after Saturday’s pitching meltdown (8 run inning). 
 

DFA Garcia and replace with Rojas. 
 

If Ryan has to go in the IL, then call up Mathews.

No word on Ryan yet?

Just seen a short from the Skor North Twins show that he quoted Dan Hayes.  No structural damage and a clean MRI.  Plans on missing a bullpen session.  As of now, he is planning on making his next start on Saturday.

He the Bigshot now , im guessing he no longer travels , = hope anyway

[mrtwinsfan]

Exhale, Twins fans. It seems Joe Ryan is going to be fine.

Ryan, 29, played catch prior to Tuesday’s game in Washington and will throw a bullpen session as scheduled Wednesday. An MRI revealed no structural damage in Ryan’s right elbow, so no transaction is required at this time. If all continues to progress well, he should be on track to make his next start over the weekend.

Full summer evening with the wind blowing out.

Twins7-5?

[Patzky]

Let's make it a streak! Win Twins!

[Patzky]

Jeez that was fast. The fans are still getting in.

[Patzky]

Framber Valdez getting pummeled too. Wonder if he's also hurt..

[Church of Kreidler]

Let's go Taj!

[Patzky]

Should be some balls flying in Yankee Stadium and Philly also tonight. All these fields are situated the same way to take advantage of gusty southerlies.

 

And snowed out in Denver

[mrtwinsfan]

Span  -again --   ish!!!!

[Patzky]

Walks do haunt.

[Patzky]

Ugh cmon guys.

[Patzky]

Crappity crap

[mrtwinsfan]

Coaching staff ,  quit playing in - in the 1st inning all it does is increase scoring multiple runs 

[Patzky]

Maybe that curveball will save us.

[Hubie29]

I'm not getting this on Twins tv.  Is there a reason?

[mrtwinsfan]

and run up the pitches

[Patzky]

Bradley is gonna be gassed if he can get out of this. I hope we don't have another eight pitch inning.
