The trick...

is not minding that it hurts.

Ah, Griifith Jax is option 47?

 

I wasn't paying attention and had to look it up.

Good afternoon Twins fans! Not sure about this game thread post...It's a double header today so I think this post will serve for both games. I will leave that to our highly compensated Moderators to figure out. I forgot about this early 1st game, hence the late post.

Getting swept by the Detroit Tigers this weekend was like a kick in the stomach. I can't believe I actually watched that mess yesterday. However, today is a new day! At this point of the season I am ready to see some of our younger guys get pulled up from AA and AAA. Might as well see what they can do. I have a feeling this roster will see some big changes at or before the trade deadline. 

Let's go Griffin Jax! Lance Lynn's got nothing on you!

Onto game one lineups:

TWINS

1. Luis Arraez, 2B

2. Josh Donaldson, 3B

3. Trevor Larnach, LF

4. Nelson Cruz, DH

5. Jorge Polanco, SS

6. Max Kepler, RF

7. Miguel Sano, 1B

8. Nick Gordon, CF

9. Ryan Jeffers, C

P - Griffin Jax (R)

 

WHITE SOX

1. Tim Anderson, SS

2. Yoan Moncada, DH

3. Jose Abreu, 1B

4. Brian Goodwin, RF

5. Adam Engel, CF

6. Andrew Vaughn, LF

7. Jake Burger, 3B

8. Danny Mendick, 2B

9. Seby Zavala, C

P  - Lance Lynn, (R)

Weather: 80 degrees and partly cloudy

Pick to click....Trevor Larnach!

Go Twins!

That was some solid defense there! 

Jax gets some bonus extra inning practice.

2 k's and runner is still on 2nd.

 

He could out of this...

Nice work young man! Thanks Sano

We aren't behind yet.

Me and my big mouth.

Turned on the tv just in time to see the Twins start losing. 

Can we sim out the rest of the season?

But then you’ll miss so much unwatchable baseball. 

Bah, White Sox have another leadoff hitter who thinks he's helping the team by swinging for the fences.  Doesn't he understand that this kills the rally by leaving the bases empty?  Fool.

Tuned in right at the end of the Top of the 4th, and I see that what I missed is exactly the same as what War's good for...

 

Absolutely nothing.

Any idea when Buxton returns to play?

Don't see how that curveball was called anything but a strike.

Sano, what a joke

Sometimes a rally of one is all you need.

Jeffers!

Oh.  Right.  Only 7 innings.  Best get something going, soon.

Good job, Jax.

Well done.

 

We would also have accepted "it again"

Why type two words when I can type 4, along with some scrolling and hot copy-paste action?

Alright, get someone home!

Like in the Sorry! game, only with bats and balls...

Lynn just carving us up after his disinterest here is just insulting 

JONRON!!!
