I guess that's fair. I hope they score 3 or 4 more runs so they don't need to use their best relievers. They'll need them for the Dodgers series.

I agree--I'm not quite certain why Winder isn't getting a bit of run here.  The more I think about it, the more I don't understand Thielbar in the 6th either.  If I had to pick one guy in the Twins pen to get 3 outs with a one run lead right now, I think Thielbar is probably the choice.

AK off the snide. Time for Sano to vet a hit

Dan Gladden, talking about how Sergio Romo was the first "Opener"

"I wanna say he opened the game, and then came back the very next day, and opened it again!"

They played the same game twice on two separate days Danny?

What i miss?

Oh wow

Nicht so gut

Grammatically correct! ?

Kiriloff has some fortune even if he does not get another hit.

That was from 40 yrs ago, but I see a lot of German at work

LOL. Nice turn to try to get Buxton. 

My imagination or did nobody touch 2nd base? Are we allowing ghosting again? Or am I going blind?

Correa to blow open the game?

I like Romo. Not sure why. He’s just so unique.

**** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** 

uffda.  Sergio can make a hitter look silly sometimes

OH my shades of Simmons, including batting average, whoo ha ha ha.

Looks like Duffey is coming out next... I guess I can't blame Rocco for treating a 4 run lead so lightly with this bullpen. I'd like to see Winder too, but not at the cost of letting the Mariners back in the game.

This is a good time for Duffey. This is when he should be pitching, imo

Duffy looks like he lives at the bus station.

What? What does that mean?

Not going to lie, I like these 6:40 start times.

A man to take advantage of public resources? A metaphor for relying on the defense?

I'm a fan of Rocco getting Duffey back out there after blowing the save. Also, he's nothing more than a MR so using him as such makes sense.

 

Now add on a run or two more and get Winder the 8th and 9th. 

Winder will get a chance when the Twins get a short start. 2-3 or maybe 4 innings. The team doesn’t want to use him when someone else is available and then not have a long man the next day. 

He reminds me of a guy who used to hang out at the bus station.  He would hustle for quarters,  shoot pool, and play cards.  Always claimed he could have played pro ball.  

That inning wasnt perfect, but it was important for Duff. He needed a rebound after Saturday. Like last year, I'm betting the velocity and control will come with a little more time to ramp up.
