We need a 6 run homer here, Gio.

Is that even possible?

Ooh, we're sorry. That is incorrect. 

"Yes" is the answer we were looking for.

Watching this game feels like I wasted an entire afternoon taking a nap, but I didn't get any energy out of it. 

This game has been a total snoozefest on both sides.

I’m happy for them

[Mill1634]

Not a great game, or a fun one, but getting out of this 9 game stretch at 5-4 is fantastic and something we all would've signed up for. Now we get Joe Ryan and Sonny Gray back this week against two pretty meh teams. Keep having winning weeks and we'll win the division. Likely won't be in the game thread for either late night weekday affair.

Until Wednesday,

Go Twins

No watch.  No listen.  Thread reading like I missed nothing.

Hmmm, I’m surprised they didn’t show, such a warm atmosphere here

Remaining June schedule

3 @ SEA 27-32

3 @ ARI 28-33

3 v CLE 29-27

3 v COL 26-34

5 @ CLE 29-27

I think 11-6 should be the goal, with 10-7 being good, and 9-8 being okay, and a losing record being "unacceptable."

[USAFChief]

Today's chicken not so appetizing 

[LVTwinsfan]

9-8 is okay as long as 6 of those wins are vs Cle

Apparently it's a good idea to read the rest of the thread before replying to a post.

No.  Self-reproach for a reply that was already covered by Chief up-thread.
