Dick lets us know the Twins haven't had an XBH since the 5th inning.

 

Of Tuesday's game.

My preseason optimism, is already waning.  Not even a month into the season.  Maybe too little patience.  But, I'm already feeling it's going to be a long, frustating season.

I'm guessing no Twins pitcher throws 100 pitches until May at the earliest.

I'm guessing that'll be the case for most teams, not just the Twins.  But I would agree with the timeline.

Duran warming, that'll be it for Ryan.

Watched the game last night but not able to today. Yesterday it felt like we needed to put him on suicide watch. I can't imagine what today is like with the anemic hitting continuing 

Larnach got a hit!

 

Larnach in on the "hit parade".

Why is Bally Sports putting the opponents’ offensive hitting stats on screen, but consistently leaving off the Twins’ batting stats? Other than this series 1-9 or whatever.

Maybe the FCC deemed the Twins offensive numbers too offensive for broadcast TV?

Maybe you answered your own question: Opponents have hitting stats, the Twins just have batting stats.

Probably due to FCC regulations against obscene materials.

So . . . is Nick Gordon our best player right now?

Yes

This game has all the earmarks of our pen coming in to somehow blow a nice start by Ryan. I sure hope I'm wrong. 

I just had a flasback, down memory lane.  It's the seventh inning in a close game, and I'm expecting Jim Perry to pitch into the ninth inning, in a game against the Orioles. ( Al Worthington, tossed aside a bag of peanuts to begin some soft toss)

Remind me why Jeffers is DH'ing again?

You have the technology, Bally Sports. Lazy graphics. 

Insurance runs...who needs 'em!

I don’t think I’m ready to get hurt again but I’m afraid I don’t have a choice

Isn't he playing center field?

If you had been paying attention, you’d know the answer is the Twins bullpen

Oh yeah...He DH'ed yesterday. 

No reason for Joe Ryan to come out of this game, so naturally he’s pulled. 85 pitches. Cruising. Nonsense

We had TWO FCC wisecracks!  

Though, for every joke there is some level of seriousness so you may be right.

Haha, Salvy wanted and was expecting a heater there. Nope, see ya.
