  1. Twins option Kyle Gibson to AAA Rochester. Good. He seems to have handled it pretty well, credit to Kyle for that. Hope he can get his stuff together and contribute at some point. Will be fun to watch Berrios / Mejia (hopefully both) compete in this rotation.
  2. Santana went 2-for-4 with a homerun and a beauty bunt single today. Nice offensive day for DanSan for sure.
  3. Sano may just likely have a chance here.....holy cow.
  4. Hey, umpire delays have helped the Twins in the past....let's see here!
  5. Something brewing here in the bottom 9....
  6. Mauer's got to be pinch-hitting for Giminez here if Molitor wants to win this game, right?
  7. No such thing as a clean inning for Tonkin.
  8. Escobar comes up big again and again. Gotta like his spirit. Compare him to Mauer - which would you prefer as a teammate?
  9. Update from the Twins' twitter feed: "Buxton was removed from today’s game for precautionary reasons, passed an initial concussion protocol and will be evaluated tomorrow."
  10. Looks like the Twins are kinda phoning this one in. Back to work here.
  11. Hope Buxton was watching Danny Santana on that bunt! Nice one!
  12. Dang, Buxton removed due to injury. (Thanks Dan Gladden for telling us promptly...NOT!)
  13. Cotton just mowed through the top of the Twins order there. Sheesh.
  14. He does have a good arm! One out of three ain't bad.
  15. Nice catch Bux. Looks like that one hurt.
  16. C'mon Duffey, get it together here.
  17. Agreed. Vargas is what a DH looks like. Grossman is what a backup / PH / 4th outfielder at best looks like. I think he'd be a nice trade option for an NL ballclub that needs depth in June/July. Right now I'm guessing the Twins are hoping they can get a nibble and steal a minor league arm in the deal.
  18. We're all frustrated and disappointed in Gibson this year. But a demotion of some kind (either to the 'pen or AAA) has been coming for a long time. It seems he had his best stuff in 2015, and also was extremely lucky - as were the Twins that year. That "perfect storm" earned him a much better reputation than he deserved. The reality: Gibson's a below-average MLB pitcher who is past his prime. Do the Twins have room for a player like that on a 1st place team that's also looking to develop young pitchers? I think we know the answer. Fal-Vine knows the answer too. Gibson's on super thin ice, and I don't think he'll be in the rotation for more than 2-3 more starts. Will a couple mediocre starts be enough to keep his job? Hope not.
  19. Yikes. Looks like we've got a ballgame all of a sudden.
  20. Eat your heart out, Anthony Rendon!
  21. Kennys Vargas. Kennys. Bugs me when Dick (of all people) doesn't pronounce it right!
  22. Castro should be hitting 8th, no more of this nonsense hitting in front of Polanco, Escobar, Rosario, etc.
  23. Oh VARGAS with the big fly! Yeah! Keep playing this dude!
