    To clarify further, Garlick did stay in the game after he pinch hit for Larnach, but was replaced by pinch runner Celestino when he walked in his second plate appearance and Celestino stayed in the game.

    It would be just like the first Target Field walk-off (Thome)--silence.

    Not a Duke (or Coach K) fan, I take it.

    Hindsight is 20-20. La Russa believed in his All-Star closer and he got beat. Tony's in the Hall of Fame and they aren't going to take him out for that, but I guess I thought it was a real gamble that he didn't have to take.

    Kind of like fake baseball (right now). First place in the AL Central!

    Ghost runner alert!
  7. stringer bell
    We may have many choices on players to put on the IL.

    The same thing happened to me yesterday.

    Well, if the Twins do manage to come back and win this game, it looks very much like they’ll be in first place. NY up 9-0 in the ninth.

    Corner OF is/was where the Twins’ prospects are/were—Rooker, Kirilloff and Larnach—with Wallner a year behind. None of them has stepped forward yet and Kirilloff might have a chronic injury and Rooker was traded. I won’t make a judgment yet on either player still with the Twins, but it is concerning.

    “Watching” on Gamecast”. Was that a bad error by Sanó?
  12. stringer bell
    Got Giolito above 25 pitches for the first inning.

    Tough to sweep any team, but momentum is on the Twins’ side.
  14. stringer bell
    I see Jeffers is listed as “day to day”. Any word on an injury?
  15. stringer bell
    Minaya is a righty, so no third left handed reliever with that.

    Moran hasn’t been very effective for the Saints. Agreed that Celestino should be in St. Paul, along with Winder. Unless there are injuries, I would expect both to be optioned on May 1, if not before. The three Saints pitchers with the best case to join the Twins are Smeltzer, Minaya and Cano. None are on the 40-man roster.

    I was surprised that the Twins picked Godoy over Cisco to back up Jeffers. I'm wondering if maybe it is because Godoy has an option remaining? Godoy wasn't listed in "out of options" by mlbtraderumors.com, so I'm guessing he can be optioned and if they brought up Cisco, they would risk losing him if the team wanted him to go back to St. Paul.

    It appears that Winder is around solely for long relief now that the starters are going long enough that a piggyback situation is improbable. With Gray seemingly ready to return to the rotation, there really doesn't appear to be any need to keep him around as insurance. Of course, that could all change in one day. It would figure that Winder will be one of the guys shipped out after May 1.

    Surviving a tough April schedule so far. Within a half game of first place with a much easier schedule in May. So far, most of the hitters have been disappointing, but the rotation has been a real surprise. I think the bullpen is a work in progress, but there are pieces there. Byron Buxton is attaining his offensive potential which is a level that very few people can reach. This is the most optimistic I have felt about the team since they broke camp. One rather large reason for this is the mess that is the Chicago White Sox, although many of their problems are injury-related.
  20. stringer bell
    Colorado split their DH with Detroit despite Columé’s best effort to blow the nightcap. The Twins are in second place alone, trailing the Guardians by one-half game.
  21. stringer bell
    Not quite counting chickens (hey I saw what happened to the T-Wolves) but it could happen that tonight the Sox will be in last place.
  22. stringer bell
    Don’t wake Abreu up!
  23. stringer bell
    Stashak pitching for a spot on the squad?
  24. stringer bell
    Sánchez gets hurt, Jeffers steps up. Coincidence?
