Nice inning by Jax there.

How about 2-3 more runs just to make everyone feel comfy?

Expand  

I'm comfy. Just trying to decide which is more comfortable. The silk or wool  or rayon. Def not the polyester tho.

I can't figure out the research from the national team tonight. They've got Griffin Jax info, understanding the change on his pitch mix with the shift to the bullpen, having a weird and fun trivia bit on him related to water (I'd never heard that one!) and sound smart and prepared. Then there's the Joe Ryan interview, which was a mess: Ryan isn't known for his changeup by anyone, the Radke story went nowhere because Ryan's never met him. It's so weird. When they have their info together, they're quite good. When they don't, it's kinda awful.

Weird.

The season is 162 games long … bound to be lots of ups and downs in there

Park gives all the details here Jax, including his rank: https://www.mlb.com/news/griffin-jax-called-up-by-twins

"Jax's promotion (to the rank of Captain) was disrupted by his transfer to the Air Force Reserve in 2019 to facilitate his professional baseball career, meaning that he's still 1st Lt. Griffin Jax".

[wsnydes]

Garlick hitting righties.

As expected.

[mrtwinsfan]

Alex,  Bang
