Had my annual physical exam today. Doctor asked me why is my blood pressure so high? Maybe the Twins record is contributing to that…

You're right. Yahoo Sports is just confused. They think he allowed 8 runs and they won 3-2. I should have caught that. Thanks for correcting me.

I bet it was a lot lower at this time last year. Not much stress in August last year.

Aren't you there to have him answer that question?

Vahn Lackey and the Mighty Mussels are the MILB.TV free game of the day. Lackey is D.Hing and Tinney is behind the plate. 

[Mike Sixel]

If you missed it, Greene to the injured list. I have no idea why anyone wanted to trade for him.

[Saxophone Joe]

Think Zebby even unpacked his bags? See you soon, bud! 🤦🏼‍♂️

Joe not being forthcoming?

Bobby N reports:

Joe Ryan has returned to Minnesota to be evaluated for a lower back injury, manager Derek Shelton said. 

Ryan will meet with Dr. Chris Camp.

Deja vu!@

White Sox and Guardians both down early.

From fangraphs... About the guy they traded for this guy....

Physical outfield prospect with contact/power blend. Hit his way out of rookie ball prior to trade. Looks like a draft prospect who goes in the pick no. 30-40 range.

 

Take a look at Yovanny Durans numbers. Same league this year and younger. Just got moved to A ball after the trade deadline. He might be the better prospect of the two.

[jaimedude]

With Ryan injured, looks like Matthews will be back soon.

And? It would be better to have two, imo.

But what IF green is my favorite color? Is it still ok?

Time to see what the Maki pitching lab has done with Kremer. Batters you’ve been slumping long enough, LFG!

I never like the answers my doctor gives me.  They always involve terms like diet and exercise, and I didn't go to medical school so I never learned any Latin words.

There's not a lot of potential starters in A+ or AA let alone AAA that haven't already been added. Next year hopefully Abel and maybe by May/June Pablo is back but after that who? Kremer helps fill that gap.

[Hubie29]

Looking at this lineup top to bottom, we sure could have used some reinforcements at the deadline. But, not to be.

If you think this guy is more than a 4....which they can just pay for in FA......

[Baumer67]

Noah Cameron= Cy Young?

[HarmonK03]

What is the fascination with playing Caratini at first.  If you are going to play Clemens against lefties, keep the infield positions the same,  If Keaschall is out because of injury then it makes more sense, but if not stop trying to so hard to get him in the lineup.  His bat is not that strong that justifies it.

Keaschall has reverse splits but maybe they’re getting too cute with the data?

[SS MagicMark]

1 down, 8 to go.

Yeah he has been one of our hottest hitters but hey we don't need that.

[mrmpls]

Bell hit his 1st Homer last night , its only been a month  ,   all he does is make the Lineup and roster construction  look foolish  , Shelton is to loyal to him , wish him well but he is not gonna be any part of the future ,   

[Craig Arko]

Extend him.

[HarmonK03]

We got out of the first inning with no runs, this new guy may not be so bad after all.

[Hubie29]

Baseball is a funny game. Nothing special, nothing hard but 1-2-3 in the first.
