Brewers (Gasser) vs Twins (Ober): 5/17/26, 1:10pm

[Brock Beauchamp]

Can Bailey Ober keep working his 88mph magic against the Brewers? They're not a great offensive team, but they're certainly pesky. They're also healthier than they've been for most of the season, though they're still missing Yelich.

It'll be interesting to see the lineup today.  Buxton's bat is desperately needed, but is he healthy yet?  Jeffers would normally get a day off here, day game after a night game, but his bat is also badly needed.  Maybe he gets a DH start instead of the struggling Bell?  They've got to find a way to scratch out at least 3 runs..

Indeed the pesky injury keeps 25 out of the lineup again. Martin needs a day off but leads off, and we face a lefty, so Larnach sits as well (Outman remains out of necessity, with Kriedler rounding out the OF)  You're spot on about Jeffers at DH. Strikeout phenom Robert Gasser is the latest AAA Brewers arm hoping to shut down the Twins.

Might need to speed run through this game. Strong thunderstorms expected later this evening 

[karcherd]

So Outman has a couple of good games and Larnach has consistently been providing quality AB's all season.  And yet who sits today, Larnach should be in there over Outman.  This organization shows no confidence in the players they develop, in smaller or larger decisions. Having Clemens hitting 4th is just desperation.

Obviously need Buck back in the lineup and I don’t want him to go on the IL, but this organization loves to run a 25 man roster.

Lewis = Outman same OPS.

I'm worried that having Lewis and Keaschall playing defense at the same time adds two runs to the opposition.

Im worried that 2 TC supposed to be generational hitters cant.

[Parfigliano]

Im listening to....Kinks Low budget

[krink]

Hopefully they're just giving Larnach another day off to keep him healthy - I’d hate to see him land on the IL

[mnfireman]

Great start defensively....

He looked fine yesterday.

[hitterscount]

Lead off walks are killers..... oh wait

[Twins_Fan_in_NJ]

Kody Clemens, professional ball player.

[hitterscount]

There's guys that look like they are .200 hitters.... Clemens however does get some big hits. Nice swing there.

[Twins_Fan_in_NJ]

This guy throws such junk. Twins should be able to put up some runs today.

[Twins_Fan_in_NJ]

Oh, boy. Here we go Royce...

[mnfireman]

Remember when Lewis was good with the bases loaded....

[krink]

Okay Royce, show us why your here 🫣

[mrtwinsfan]

royce  ?

[mnfireman]

Now make them pay for dropping that pop-up...

[Twins_Fan_in_NJ]

They have to send Royce down at this point. Hurting the team and further ruining any confidence he might have left.

[hitterscount]

The Lewis bobblehead should have him holding a bat with a big hole

[Recognize]

We have to always be #1 team leaving bases loaded haha

[Aggies7]

There could have been 10 dropped fouls and Royce still would have gotten out 

[SteveLV]

At least he worked the AB before he did the inevitable and struck out....10 pitch AB.

[mrtwinsfan]

40 pitches   and 1  friggin run  =    

[Peter]

Time to bring culpepper up send Royce to St Paul
