Surely, you must be exaggerating a bit!

I've told you a million times, I never exaggerate.

KC is bad. I don't think there's as much to be learned (good or bad) from this 3 game set as we're being sold. 

Yes they are, and Detroit may be worse. Watched their first few innings tonight against the Yankees. starting pitcher threw 42 pitches in the first inning and got pulled. Their second pitcher threw a pitch that, wait for it, hit the pitcher’s mound. He then left with an injury

Yup, you caught me

Well played...

[Mill1634]

Interested to see what the bullpen looks like tonight. Probably going to need 4 innings from them. Duran is probably a no go on back-to-back days. Pagan got up twice yesterday, but I think he'll still be able to go. 

I'll guess Smith, Coulombe, Duffey, Pagan.

You may have our hockey team, but I'm pretty sure that's not in the twin cities metro!

haha yes my point exactly! I checked on mlb.tv and the only teams that should be on the blackout list from Dallas are the Rangers and Astros.... actually just turned off Wifi and it works! weird...

I saw that. They had some very good, patient at-bats against Cole, though.

[Mill1634]

Twins clearly think Whit doesn't get enough cardio. 

[bighat]

Think Merrifield wants to go home yet?

[USAFChief]

Not sure how they only have 2 runs on the board.

Ineptitude, mostly. 

And unfortunately.

[bighat]

Attaboy Correa.

[PopRiveter]

Arraez looked downright swift there

[Mill1634]

I cannot believe the Royals let this dude face Arraez, Polo, and Correa a third time after the bottom of the order hit the crap out of him.

[USAFChief]

Correa opening a solid RBI lead on Aggies. Not sure there's enough season left for Aggies to catch up.

[Squirrel]

Geeez ... I hate these games when the manager pulls the pitcher before 5 innings are complete

[Aggies7]

Now Correa has only two more rbi than me

A momentous day, to be sure

I like to think he has infinite times the rbi you have, but it is semantics 

[bighat]

I question this PH -

Taking out Gordon this early, with a slim lead, after he just hit a triple....

It's evening.

[stringer bell]

Don't like the Garlick move in the fifth inning.

[2wins87]

I'd rather see Garlick for Kepler, but I know that's not how they're gonna operate.

Maybe for another quarter mil you'd try a little harder.

[Aggies7]

Overmanager Rocco

Roy agrees with us, bighat.

Got to factor in inflation too
