  1. Got Tonkin just in time. It would be a shame to have to use a good pitcher right now. Smart.
  2. I would throw Okert’s jersey on Wallner and have him finish the game.
  3. Didn’t look ready at all for the show in ST…but right back to tearing up AA. HR and BB in his first 2 PA tonight. A crumb of good news.
  4. If the CIA was ever going to kidnap Castro and secretly exile him to an uncharted island…now would be the time.
  5. Two balls out of the infield in first 19 PA for our favorite club.
  6. The underlying numbers for Vasquez are interesting and encouraging. I guess. Still, as a Twins fan, I’ve seen enough poor results from him, that I’ll have to remain in the ‘believe it when I see it’ camp. The Twins paid him last year too, right? Last year Correa was a very good player with a ridiculously low BABiP. This spring, he’s been a very good player with a nice BABiP.
  7. I feel like we’re being force fed the Buxton ‘good news’. His slash line is what it is. Meanwhile, a recent TD article posited that Buxton’s frequent swings and misses this season are a ‘good sign’ because last year he was forced to take strikes. Really?? Can’t we wait for him to actually become productive, before we declare him ‘back’…or even ‘good’ with the bat in his hands? After all, counting on a 30-year-old guy with a career 300 OBP and a 106 OPS+…and a track record of extreme inconsistency…a guy who hasn’t been ‘good’ offensively by any definition since 2022, and a guy who has never had anything close to a good AND complete season in his career…for that guy to be the one ‘largely’ responsible for a club’s offensive renaissance this season is bold, if not a bit of a stretch. In the meantime, his value remains primarily defensive…which is great, because that value remains significant.
  8. We don’t sweat his production. Just his health.
  9. Huh?? After tonight, the Twins K rate will be at about 28%. And literally, everyone is complaining about it.
  10. Wallner came into this game with the 4th highest OBP on the club. That’s where we’re at.
  11. 107 mph exit velocity for Julien…against a lefty. For an out, of course.
  12. 30 minutes ago Stewart was out in the bullpen snacking on a hot dog and sipping a beer, thinking…well, no way I’m gunna be pitching tonight…
  13. Martin with the highest OPS on the club.
  14. How we gunna hold them to 8, though?
  15. Or a professional golfer getting the yips…hard to watch.
  16. Acceptable response. But I was looking for…”It’s a miracle!”
  17. Not sure about that. He DEFINITELY catches too much barrel.
  18. How in the world have we won 3??…
  19. And you shouldn’t feel weird at all for noticing that.
  20. Congratulations! It was impossible for me to slump from my freshman year.
