Guys, I'm gonna take the bullet here. I'll admit, I wasn't confident going into this game, and I think the Twins could sense that.
But tomorrow's game? We got that s#&$ on lock!!! They aren't going to see us coming!!!
But who would you put there right now without putting Buck on the IL? Martin isn't fast enough to play CF, and I - personally - have not seen enough of Fedko to be able to fully back him...
I will say re: Kreidler in CF:
If we can't have Buxton, I do like having him out there. I trust his ability to get to the ball more than some of our other OF options.
Now, ideally, Buck would be healthy, and he wouldn't need to be out there at all.
In Kreidler related news, I was going over his home run history - as part of my daily ablutions - and I didn't realize that 1 of the 2 he'd scored with Detroit was actually at Target Field in '24. Have we ever had a more perfect signing!
My only worry is that they are supposed to have two people coming off the IL today, Trent Grisham and Ryan McMahon... Hate to wish ill on a fellow human being, but maybe we'll get lucky and they'll have a setback 🤞🏻
