    I don’t want to step on Rosterman’s toes, but AARON WHITEFIELD (remember him) was selected by the Angels (baseball team). He had a single plate appearance with the Twins in 2020.

    Balazovic allowed seven base runners in 3.2 innings, but kept them off the board. SWR allowed six in 5.1, but four of them scored. Just glad to see these top prospects playing games and getting reps.

    Thielbar, Duffey, Smith, Stashak and Pagán could all go tomorrow. Also, I’m wondering how likely the game is to be played.
  4. stringer bell
    Not exactly true. If three or more players test positive, then they can go outside the 40-man roster. So far, only two guys, so they had to use players on the 40-man. I don’t think two at-bats says it all as to whether Kirilloff is ready. Give him a few days. I’d love to see him step in at first base.

    Has Duran thrown more 100+ mph pitches than all other Twins pitchers? I recall Trevor May getting to 99, Graterol at or over 100 and I thought Alcala hit 100 a couple of times last year. Is there anyone else with that kind of velocity?
  6. stringer bell
    The last out is the toughest one to get.
  7. stringer bell
    No splinkers from Duran. Maybe he just sticks with the heat. 101.7, 102.9, 100.8–maybe they should call him FM (radio).
  8. stringer bell
    Jeffers has had something like 5 pitches out of the box called strikes when he’s been hitting. One would hope he’s gotten more than that when he’s catching.
  9. stringer bell
    Nice job by both Coulombe and Jax. Two inning Duran save?
  10. stringer bell
    Is that it for Gray? If he gets through four scoreless and he's healthy, I guess I would be satisfied.
  11. stringer bell
    With all the DPs, injuries, lack of hitting with RISP and some hiccups in the field, this stretch could have been a long losing streak. Mostly good pitching, a couple of close wins and less than formidable opponents have resulted in more wins than losses.
  12. stringer bell
    Sanchez is due for a long ball.
  13. stringer bell
    Bad luck for Polanco on that.
  14. stringer bell
    Presuming that Larnach's issue is minor, I think Kirilloff is very much on trial right now. If his power is sapped or if he can't be available all of the time, I think they'll option him or put him on the Injured List again. Larnach has shown for now he deserves to stay. Gordon is a utility guy who can't be optioned, Fortunately for Kirilloff, there are at-bats to be had at first base. If Kirilloff can't perform, Miranda and Arraez would take those at-bats.
  15. stringer bell
    Gray activated, Sands optioned. Gray starts today against Oakland.
  16. stringer bell
    Wallner and Miller have had nice weeks. I think Wallner’s upside is more than Rooker.
  17. stringer bell
    Yes. Jeffers framed a borderline pitch. This was a really good pitch from Pagan, but you aren't going to come out ahead that often in that situation.
  18. stringer bell
    Pagan has gone to the limit like that twice and came out on top. That, friends, is walking the tightrope.
  19. stringer bell
    A closer who walks a ton of guys isn't a closer (for long).
  20. stringer bell
    Score was tied when Duran came in.
  21. stringer bell
    Pagan should not be the closer. I don't have much trust in him.
  22. stringer bell
    Duffey with 94 mph heat.
  23. stringer bell
    A lot of weak contact from Urshela recently.
  24. stringer bell
    Sanchez has been better than the brutal defender reputation he has garnered. Regarding the Celestino catch, I think Buxton catches the ball without a dive, but not running toward home. The runner probably scores.
  25. stringer bell
    I've never heard of Neuse. I noticed the Twins have a minor league CF with the same last name. Since that name is pretty rare, I wonder if the two players are related.
