In another thread, there was reference to a tweet pointing out how great the Braves offense this month. I looked a little deeper and eight players started every game, with the catchers splitting the ninth position. That’s hard to fathom.- 45 replies

Oddly, the Twins are the slight betting favorite this morning. More belief in this team nationally than on TD?
-
Kirilloff is the only lefty in the lineup, batting ninth and playing right field.

Game is on Peacock and starts in less than two hours. Welcome back José Miranda! I hope you brought your July 2022 swing with you.

Twins 26/40-man Roster Moves/Transactions Thread - 2023
stringer bell replied to Danchat's topic in Minnesota Twins Talk
Miranda is in the Twins’ starting lineup, playing third, hitting seventh. Pretty much makes it official that Lewis on the IL and Miranda recalled. Verified on the Twins’ mlb.com website. -
Pretty harsh take on Ober and the front office. Every pitching staff suffers injuries in the course of the year. Having seven acceptable starting options is the bare minimum and has been proven by the Twins with the injuries to Maeda and Mahle. Ober was known to be a quality starter but there wasn't room at the very beginning of the season and he could be optioned, so he was.

If their bullpen was depleted, they might have let Ober go on more inning, but just look at what has happened to Gray when they try to squeeze that extra frame out of the starter, hasn't gone well.
-
They do. De León hasn't been placed on the 60-day list as of yet. Why would they want to add Garlick? I would rather take my chances with Wallner or Larnach TBH.
-
So, Miranda for Lewis. Time to give the young man another chance, I suppose. Matt Wallner probably is saying "what do I have to do?" but it would be hard to get him at-bats.

Not a depressing win outside of the injury to Lewis. Ober, López, Gray, Ryan and Maeda really do give the club a chance every time out.

I think Miranda has a shot at being recalled. For the 461st time, too many LH corner OFs.
-
Rubber game of the road trip tomorrow morning!!!
-
Outstanding pitching!!
-
Maybe Kepler has some value.
-
Twins did everything right. Mateo just got in there.
-
Safe, I think.
-
I want Kirilloff hitting in the tenth against Canó or Bautista if it comes to that.
-
Just do not like pinch hitting with two outs and none on when the team is ahead to get a worse fielding team on the field.
-
Seven hits and a couple walks, but unable to put anything together. GDP and a CS don't help.
-
Time to get more runs on the board. Ober has been outstanding.
-
And later a makeup call.
-
Andy Fletcher isn't winning many friends in the Twins' dugout.
-
Uh-oh, looks like a oblique for Lewis.
-
What a catch by Hayes!!

Maybe off topic, maybe not, Atlanta is playing by far the best baseball right now. Miami was hot coming in and Atl won last night 16-4 and they're up 5-0 in the first today.
