Adrianza, Gonzalez, and Castro - no Buxton in center and the turtle in right - against Verlander in support of Stewart. Not enough that Stewart has to pitch against the Houston lineup, eh? Good Luck, Kohl. You will need it.

 

Yeah not too thrilled about this "getaway day" lineup. If you're going to play Adrianza...play GarvSauce at catcher. If you're going to play Castro, at least take Gonzalez out of the lineup, etc.

Boy does Stewart work slow. If he keeps nibbling like this it's going to be a long night for this kid.

OK inning one out of the way.  Lets hope Kohl finds a groove.

If he keeps throwing 20 pitches an inning he is going to have tough time making it through 5 innings.

Terrible call on Rosario's check swing there.

Is Stewart pitching? Who got sent down/DFA’d for the roster spot?

he was a bad seed

Verlander going right down the middle to get both Cron and Gonzalez.

Kohl copied and got what he deserved

What a band box - between Minute Maid and Yankee Stadium I'm not sure which is more of a whiffle-ball park. At some point MLB should put restrictions on just how short these dimensions can be. Heck, Rosario even hit a lazy fly ball the other day that went out.

So..... is it a mistake if the batters (Cron and Gonzalez) don't get a hit? Or only a mistake if they take it out of the park (Correa)?

speeding is a traffic offense regardless of getting pulled over and ticketed, no? We just skirt with a few miles over here and there and hope we don’t get caught.

 

Verlander didn’t get caught, Stewart did.

They already do.

They're juicing the baseballs too...

Castro has an .823 OPS.

How long does he have to be on probation for his injury ravaged 2018?

Does Stewart look shorter than 6'3" to anyone else?

Verlander didn’t get caught, Stewart did.

 

But you always hear from the pitchers..... or the managers.... "I liked how I pitched. I only made those two mistakes. The rest was just great...."

 

And no.... only speeding if you get ticketed. The rest is driving with the others in the flow.

Seems afraid to throw Bregman a strike tonight.

 

 

They're juicing the baseballs too...

Dip them in orange juice for five hours, then dry, then fly.

Where was Polanco backing that play up?

 

 

Castro has an .823 OPS.

All year, I would think.

Wtf!

“I never speed” is code for “I never get caught”

This was never going to be anything other than an L

Ooof, wheels coming off.

 

At least the Audra Martin got a ride on the train.

Why wouldn’t Verlander be throwing a perfect game?

Pretty clear the Twins rolled over and gave this game to the Astros last night as soon as Altuve hit that HR.

They do?

Yep, but the quiz above might prove the rules are a bit pliable

I've seen a lot of games Berrios pitched that he has given up 3 runs by the end of the 3rd. Somehow this doesn't feel the same.
