July 16, 20215 yr Apparently the weather that we had in SE Minnesota on Wednesday has made it's way to Michigan. Both games of the doubledheader have been postponed. I do not know how they will make this up, but we can all focus on the off-the-field news (players rehabbing, Buxton negotiating extension).
July 16, 20215 yr I wonder if the 40 man move to add Barnes was official or it is paperwork teams do just prior to games.
July 16, 20215 yr Just read that one of the games that was to be played today will be played tomorrow ... so, a split double header tomorrow ... with the same pitchers that were to go today (Barnes and Maeda) at 12:10pm and 5:10pm CT. The other game that was to be played today will be played on Aug. 30, at 1:10pm CT. https://www.mlb.com/twins/news/twins-tigers-july-16-doubleheader-postponed
July 16, 20215 yr Well, a reverse Ernie Banks I guess - let's not play 2 - but we will play 2 tomorrow! Was looking forward to a nice distraction from work on Friday afternoon and seeing Charlie Barnes pitch.
July 16, 20215 yr Good news, 1 more day's rest. Bad news less rest later. A split tomorrow is no good. Too late to tread water.
July 16, 20215 yr One more day of all star break! At least Detroit is also rained out, so we won't lose ground in the standings to them...
July 16, 20215 yr We continue a streak of not losing! Could this be the answer to our season, more all star games, more rain outs! Keep it coming.

July 16, 20215 yr Ugh. So even though tomorrow is a "split" double header, it's still 7 innings each?

July 17, 20215 yr The Twins canning afford to miss out on playing Detroit. We need to clean up on teams that are worse than we are! WHAT? We are behind Detroit in the standings? How can that be?
July 17, 20215 yr Good. Bump another game until after the trade deadline. That way the Twins are more likely to keep trade-able players healthy. Then, after the deadline, we get another game to start evaluating the future!!!!!

HMMM, Detroit is: w 5 L 1 vs Seattle W 5 L 2 vs Houston W 2 L 0 vs St. Louis W 3 L 3 vs New York W 7 L 6 vs Kansas City W 4 L 9 vs Chicago For what it is worth: Happ has the two shortest game time wins for Minnesota and Thorpe and Berrios have the two shortest game time losses.?
