Rangers (Eovaldi) vs Twins (Ober): 9/26/26, 3:10pm

I think he meant he prefers Keasch in LF and Roden in RF.  Both are in the lineup.

Why? Keaschall has been significantly better.

Not in RF. He should be in LF or DH.

Will they delay until then or do double header tomorrow?

Yes.™

The logic could be similar to when Ben Revere patrolled RF.  When the arm is bad enough, he's still not throwing anybody out at third base even if he's in LF, so put the more-decent arm there.

We can play at Milwaukee since Tropicana is taken tomorrow. 😞

If Ober can throw 7 innings with 0 earned runs he ends the year with a sub 4 ERA.

Verlander ends 2026 with a 7.00 ERA. Much respect to him... Good outing for the Comerica faithful.

Huh? The throw from LF to 3B is a lot shorter than from RF.

Hope they can squeeze it in at Target; it has to be played for the ALWest race.

Never experienced a game by the Minnie and St Paul sign this is where I want to get a close Jenkins experience whenever it’s time to play

Actually it would probably work from a weather standpoint. Maybe we could call up Rojas for a doubleheader.. or Wallner to say adios.

Hey...the Vikings are away...make a quick conversion and bring back memories of the WS

[LastOnePicked]

It's drizzle. C'mon, are these players made out of spun sugar or something? Get out there and play!

Oh no. I've become my old man.

That's not a crazy idea. I kind of think the Twins should have a standing agreement for April/Sept/Oct field swaps with US Bank Stadium.

They do not want to slip and get hurt.

Has a football game ever been played at Target field? 

[HarmonK03]

They will wait as long as possible to play the game today.  MLB doesn't want doubleheaders played tomorrow, it messes with scoreboard watching.  They want the races decided on the field and not for a team to know their fate before taking the field.

Sorry - just meant using the Vikings stadium when it's not in use.

Pfft. Then I guess they better never shower.

I'm kidding. Few fans in baseball better understand the need for a player not to slip and tear soft tissue that Twins fans.

I had a bad feeling it was gonna be a 6 PM start and should have waited it out. But at least I got a cheap happy hour thanks to Tom

I have never seen the Vikings play US Bank as I live in CAL (did see them at sofi)...not sure the configuration could have baseball.

Zoll can be proud that Hoffman lasted longer than Dyson, although Falvey was smart enough not to tie himself down to the next year for a reliever.
