Perez looks like he can get a couple more innings... started out shaky, but he's settled down. 

 

Dare I say that it looks like Perez is in a groove right now?

If he can maintain some consistency he could be one of the best free agent signings we've ever made.

Isn't that correct? His name is technically Martín Pérez. I think that should be pronounced differently than Perez (with no accent marks).

Answering myself, B-Ref lists that pronunciation:

which is amusing since we all pretty much universally hated it.

I think I speak for all Twins fans when I say: let's see that bullpen! The more relievers, the better!

Well, with a 4 run lead, I'm not quite as concerned. 

 

that was a joke.

dang, NM... send him out for the 9th. 

He’s gotta be left in. He’s dominating

I'd give Perez the 8th until someone gets on base, at least.

Send him out for the eighth! 

6 outs to go.

 

Be cool to see the Twins shut out Houston again.

Yep, all over twitter

So. I flip on Cory and Danny and the good guys are up 3 zip. I open up TD and read through the Game Thread. Getting to 3-0 was not easy, apparently. Lots’o complaining about no early offense. #Shut out last night, I guess. Now up 4-0. I’m turning in since my alarm is going off at 3:15. Keep the faith boys and girls. I want to wake up to your chicken dinners tomorrow. See you at Target Field tomorrow afternoon.

Look at Perez go
