I fear for any team going up against Cleveland in a 3-game playoff series. Look at what Bieber's doing to the best offense in baseball right now and he's making it look easy. -
Bux!
-
Ditto.
-
Sure Berrios threw a lot of pitches, but I don't think anyone can say this outing was a disaster or a dud. Certainly looked better than last time and I for one am encouraged.
-
I'd take La Tortuga as well.
-
Bieber's just nasty. Not sure any team can hit this guy if he pitches like this.
-
Didn't look like Buxton went there.
-
And Sano swings through 3 straight 94 MPH fastballs in a row right down the middle and strikes out. Definition of "Bad Sano".
-
Arraez again. Kid's just money. Can't say I feel too good about Sano's chances against Bieber tonight unfortunately. Prove me wrong big fella.
-
By the next game we'll be at 10% of the season complete.... Edit: Wow it looks like I'm not the only one to do the math!

Rogers looked VERY sharp. LaVelle E. Neal said on Twitter that getting 5 innings from Hill in a good appearance is all we should really expect at this point. He's got some mileage but he can still get it done and he did so last night. Watching Ponce de Leon pitch in those first two innings was painful. I am totally against a pitch clock, but then you see guys like that and you understand why it's under consideration. Cards can't be too happy leaving MPLS with 3 total runs after facing Homer Bailey and Rich Hill. Woof. The White Sox looked like a much more complete team than St. Louis IMO. Big series coming up.

Avila! I feel ya!

Looks like Sano and Garver are the last two Twins who have yet to get going this year.
-
Eddie, my goodness!
-
At least when there are real fans in the stands, the drone of humans kinda allows you to ignore the DJ. But this fake crowd noise isn't effective in that regard.
-
I'm talking about the music between pitches. The crowd noise is also being added by the ballpark staff. It's not the broadcast/FSN, it's the Twins staff.
-
Despite there being zero fans in attendance, the Twins PA guys are still relentlessly at it. Seriously between every pitch. I've watched a lot of ballgames so far, no other stadiums are even close to pumping in this much noise.
-
Possible that Baldelli's trying to make sure everyone gets some playing time? I can't imagine not seeing Rogers tonight. Morneau mentioned this when Sano got a day off in Chicago last week: "It's hard to get your timing down when you're sitting on the bench". I have to agree, but he hit a double yesterday so maybe the rest did him good? It seems odd that Bux wouldn't at least play two in a row. Perhaps the ankle's barking?

First Impressions From Each AL Central Team
bighat replied to Cooper Carlson's topic in Twins Daily Front Page News
Agreed. That White Sox offense was scary. And this Luis Robert kid is the real deal. The Sox also lost Eloy Jimenez during the series with the Twins which is a blow. But at full strength, their offense is as good as anyone. -
Arraez leading off today. Cool.
-
It would have indeed gone out.
-
Oh Bux what happened!?!?!
-
Okay, Homer. Shake it off, get through the next 3 guys and turn it over to the bullpen.
-
Donaldson is heating up! Yee-yikes.
-
Watching the St. Louis feed and they kept talking about how deep the lineup was last inning. "Sano hit 34 homers last year and he's hitting EIGHTH". They were just scratching their heads.
