Time to bring culpepper up send Royce to St Paul 

Peter  do you have Sheltons #  -  someone gotta tell him what we  all see and he dont

[Blyleven2011]

Royce had a chan e with 10 pitches , percentage goes up with that many pitches ,that's how bad royce is ...

So sad ...

[mrtwinsfan]

That at bat by Reacher Royce  was not at all impressive because amount of pitches ,  he swung at maybe 1 strike ,  he gotta go down for a new approach

[Linus]

Royce swing is long and kind of sloppy. He had a couple of really hittable pitches and fouled them off. He’s swinging like a guy with too heavy of a bat. 

[tony&rodney]

Today, for the first time, I am feeling sorry for Royce Lewis. Five pitches right down the middle ... nothing. Maybe worse, Royce swings at four pitches well out of the strike zone and every swing was full pull with little awareness of what the pitcher was doing. 

Maybe he can turn it around, but Royce looks more unplayable than any guy on the roster and the coaches know that.

3rd base umpire almost got nailed by foul ball

Worse is the players also know it, although there's 3-4 other guys struggling just as bad. You're not going to win consistently with this much plate incompetence..... I guess most of us knew this coming out of spring training.

Taj!!!! Thank goodness! Come back and save us 🙌🏻

I am hoping that if/when they decide to send Lewis down, they will also instruct him to pick up a 1B glove and take some reps over there.  Provided Culpepper sticks, that will likely be his one spot to stay on the team and maybe develop a little more trade value as he can play multiple positions if the Twins do end up writing him off.

[Linus]

Molitor is such a pleasure to listen to- one of the smartest baseball people around.

I look at that infield single in the 1st.  I think if Royce was going right, he makes that play where there was little chance that Lee could make it in any case.  It does appear, that like Wallner did, he is taking his struggles at the plate out to the field as well.

[Twins_Fan_in_NJ]

They give out the defensive play of the game award way too early. It's only the third inning...

[Linus]

Good play by Luke. He has athleticism which gives hope he can become a good fielder. 

[Twins_Fan_in_NJ]

Is Clemens the Twins best player?

[mnfireman]

Brewer's doing their Twins defense impersonation today...

[hitterscount]

This Clemens is a ballplayer.

Painful to watch Lewis right now.

I don’t know if he is, but I know after having a really decent year last year he has been labeled as a non-major leaguer that couldn’t be on any other roster by several on these game forums this year.

Says a lot that Gasser has only two strikeouts, both of them being Royce.

[Linus]

Great swing by Clemens. Wasn’t a fan of him standing on second not paying attention to the overthrow.
