This series has been pretty bittersweet. Some good individual outputs, but poor pitching has led to some bad results. We have seen GarvSauce make his final appearances of the season (as he is going to have surgery on a torn flexor tendon). I don’t think it’s a coincidence that he is playing his last game today. Salvaging a game here would be awesome, and if Bundy performs like has recently, there will be a good chance of that. 

1 1B Luis Arraez
2 SS Carlos Correa

4 RF Max Kepler
5 2B Jorge Polanco
6 LF Alex Kirilloff

The All-Star Ballots come out soon, and usually I put together my own personal ballot. Realistically, I think the Twins get Buxton and Arraez in, but that’s it. Duran is a dark horse, but it should be entertaining nonetheless. Let’s hope for a Twins Win today!

Duran is certainly deserving!

Did we win yet?

I, personally, don’t want any of our pitchers participating in the ASG.

Likewise. Moreover, I would not be sad if Buxton turns down the opportunity in order to rest his knee. The ASG is just a load of BS anyway.

Predict, Correa in, Arraez bigly snub. BA not a big deal no power crowd wins out and they need 30 guys from the Yankees and Red Sox for ratings.

We only have one player deserving of being a ALL STAR,    Luis Arreaz,   Buxton ? cmon be serious

Agree. They could just as well have them put on their uniforms and have them walk up-and-down a model's runway for the photographers instead of going through the motions of playing a game. Haven't watched an ASG in decades.

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

Buck and Kep getting it started. Let's go!!

I don't think that'd work. They want someone who can throw strikes.
