This is a very strange game. I can't honestly remember a time in the last couple of years where the starter went <4 innings but the Twins offense actually stayed in the game and didn't roll over. For some reason, they're playing with more "heart" this year, if there is such a thing. The pitching still sucks, though.
You have to give the Twins credit...this is the kind of game that they would lay down and lose last year. I legitimately think that this team could be almost 8 wins better than last year.
So what happens if we win? We'd be 3-1, which is about 3 more wins than I'm sure anybody expected at this point. And what if we keep winning? What then? Do we still make all those moves at the deadline if we're above .500 at the break (somehow)?
Pelfrey has come back from Tommy John surgery in just less than 11 months, is hitting 92-93 on his sinker, getting ground balls, and pretty much showing great control. No strikeouts, but did we expect any? I'd say that "sharp" is an apt definition.
