I'd kill for a 6-4-3 right now.

Almost…… 6-4-?

I say it and I say it: there's no "low leverage guy(s)" in a modern bullpen.

Everybody is gonna pitch innings that are important to winning.

G-cinco looks injured

Concur.  Pagan and Jax both pitched yesterday, reducing the chances they bring them in (or that they would be better).

If they bring in Duffey, watch me lose my ****.  Along with everyone else, presumably.

DIdn't Jax go 2 yesterday? If so, I'd guess he's off limits.

Pagan had a relatively easy inning and has been used on back to back days often. 

Or I could be completely bonkers and it's Duffey 

Correa at SS now?

I don't get Buxton to PR for Gordon

Jeffers isn't on my favorits list these days.

Gordon is fast, why didn't Buxton PH for Jeffers

Off season shopping list has to have a replacement for Jeffers.

If there was ever a time for a sac bunt, Jeffers' AB was it. Massive GIDP candidate, top of the order due up. 1 run lead. 8th inning.

Nobody on base now and we still need an insurance run.  Fortunately, Home Run Arraez is up.

Just one.  I figured it would be two when he came in, though.

No Pagan!

Put him on the IL and bring up someone good.

"Minnesota Twins placed UT Nick Gordon on the 10-day injured list. Bruised feelings."

Polanco at short ?

Polanco at short, AHHHHHHHH!

Gordon just cannot be your SS.

He loves baseball but is not consistently good, or really even average at any position, with brief flashes of Wow.

OMG, this defensive move just made us so much worse. Is he trying to give it away?

Amen

Nice K

Is pagan blows this, rocco will have some serious splaining to do about why duran was used in the 8th against the bottom of the order and pagan gets the top. Even if it works out, he should have to explain it anyway because it doesn’t make sense

cant send him down ??  is that right ?

Now i am caught up.

reading the game thread at least

what about the game?

No ground balls, please!

That's one.

No remaining minor league options, yes.  You can send him down by offering him to every other team first, via waivers.  Addition by subtraction, in my estimation, but it's probably not good roster stewardship.

It has proceeded

About as I would have hoped:

Entertainingly.

If Duran goes 1-2-3, he faces 5, 6, 7.  Pagan would have had 8,9 1. Or maybe Duran throws an easy 8th and can go 2. Plus there's always the chance the Twins add on bottom 8. I don't have an issue with it.
