Twins (Rojas) vs White Sox (Martin): 5/28/26, 1:10pm

[Brock Beauchamp]

We live in a world where getting a split against the White Sox on the road is an acceptable outcome. Strange.

Thanks for getting to it! I hope we never have to see Orlando Arcia pitch again! Win Twins!

Back into the W column today (hopefully) - tall task for the bats having to face Martin.

After yesterday's ace, what can be said? 

[karcherd]

I am glad we haven't had many nights like last night and they actually have been more watchable than I anticipated.  But having a roster with Gray, Arcia, Kreidler, Jackson, Caratini, Outman, Bell and trying to force Clemens into the lineup every day is not going to be sustainable for any kind of winning.  They are stuck with Caratini because somebody has to catch.  But can they get some players up here that might have a future with this team and quit forcing such wacky lineups.  Gray is not an every day shortstop, Clemens is not an every day player, and Bell needs to be hitting 7th or lower if in the lineup at all.  Show us they have some kind of plan other stop gap AAAA type players or aging veterans..

[Chris Hove]

Come on, Kendry. It's a tough matchup today, but he has been really good, too.

How about Arcia so far? Really small sample size, and he won't continue at this pace, but he's versatile and gets on base for now. I will check back in a few weeks.

I would prefer him over Gray and Kreidler.   I get we may need to have one of the three on the roster, but all three, that is insane.

Rojas (sore elbow) scratched. Ruh-roh.

I’m anticipating that I will be going back to the chore list by the 3rd, maybe 4th inning.

Sim? Oh lordy this trip to Chicago has been a disaster. He just pitched.. he won't go more than three innings even if things go well.

All we need is six, seven runs in the first two innings and we got this ✨✨ ✨ 

[Western SD Fan]

I'm afraid we are going to need this today.  We certainly needed it yesterday and I failed to bring it out.

SWR will pitch great game and get his first win!!!

He is not going 5 innings regardless of how he pitches, so it will be hard to get the win.

Agreed, particularly this strange need to play Gray out of position at SS when Kreidler is actually good there and is hitting better. 

[Patzky]

Wind is blowing out to RF today. All those 330 foot fly outs last night are waiting to get their wings.

They do not seem to have faith in Kriedler, he was beat out by Gray coming out of spring training.  They started Clemens in CF last night over Kreidler which is supposedly his reason to be up here as another option for CF.  There was another game it would have been logical to start him and he didn't.  So why is he even on the roster other than being a body.

[Patzky]

Guess we could call Funderburk back up but he's getting rocked regularly in St Paul. Genesis Cabrera, where are you.

Ah well play ball!
