that might coincide with how many innings they get tonight period.

Or at least if/when it rains.  A delay will definitely play into that.

I love that Archer not only has short sleeves, but has his shirt unbuttoned as well. He's becoming a Minnesotan very quickly!

Well, he said the Twins were his favorite team (or at least one of his favorite teams) as a kid.

That has to count for something, right?

Never been a Archer fan,  looking good so far, when Bremar said he has the most velocity as a starter on our team,  not sure how to look at that  ??

Cool. I didn't know that. He grew up in NC.

He was in a little league team that was the Twins, so he ended up following them. Go to the Twins site and look for the interview he gave the other day

Ha!  I missed an inning... didn't realize that it was the 4th already...

Apparently, his little league team were the Twins. And while he says he didn't have the opportunity to watch them very often, he still cheered for the Twins.

Gah! Come on ,,, don’t let another Correa double go to waste 

Our RH batters (not hitters!) look pathetic against that breaking ball inside.

Aaaaaaand wasted...

Think I would let Archer take the 5th, because there is a strong chance the game is called after that. Resume tomorrow with Winder in the 6th, or wherever the game is left at. 

Ooof, Sanchez looks awful. Two strikeouts on 6 pitches.

I'll take Arraez against a lefty any day over that.

Confidence POLL ??   Sanchez or Sano at the plate ??

I'm not sure that this is the ideal situation to introduce Winder to the big leagues.

Yes.

Er...no. ?

Hopefully the decision to keep Winder on the roster doesn't go the way of Dobnak

Got some thunder in the south suburbs.  Not playing Correa could become a big deal.

At the time of the trade, a Yankees fan reportedly said that the Twins wouldn't need air conditioning on hot days because of the wind created by those two swinging and missing.

That was three inches outside... 

Winder in for the 5th. Scheduled piggy-back “start”? If they don’t get rained on, suppose the plan is 2-3 innings?

Winder: Thank you Mr. umpire!

That was one epic framing job by Jeffers. Or the ump was just blind. ?

Jeffers throws it ot Buxton.

Hopefully Winder will not stay in long.

Winder is nibbling like he's Kyle Gibson.

ugh

Seems like Winder's on the wrong side of the river.

Let's see, one more hitter, then Baldelli can bring in another youngster with no previous experience to hold down a poor Dodger lline-up.

Right now the Twins are sorrly missing Rortvedt.
