My vote -- leave Mahle in to at least start the 7th, he got thru the  #4 hitter, and his season stats say he is better thiird  time thru than the 2nnd

No thanks, he was starting to get drubbed in the 6th.

Owatonnie. That's just south of the Twin Cities on I-35, right? 

EDIT: Basically ninja'ed by HBD. 

Ugh Correa literally can’t do anything right!

That would be my vote, too.  But I don't think it will play out that way.

SW of the Cities, IIRC.

Twins win percentage 92.7%, Mahle made it through 6 on 86 pitches. He's averaging 95 pitches per start. Can the BP get 9 outs without giving up 3 runs?

I'm betting 92.7 is a little low.

I'd let Mahle start the 7th, then maybe Thielbar for the lefties.

"Getting 30 pounds of pork belly ready for the smoker" is what I call waddling my fat self out to smoke a brisket.

I've done 10 pounds a couple times, but my philosophy is that if something's worth doing, it's worth overdoing. Mrs. IT will be glad to have the fridge back after seven days of curing. I borrowed a deli meat slicer from a friend -- cutting is the most time-intensive part. 

But the bacon burgers tonight were worth it. 

AARGH!

I'll bet they were!

And we shall see if Fulmer, Duran & Lopez can keep the lead.

My S-I-L and a friend do homemade bacon every so often. It's outstanding. But don't tell him I said so.

Wrong on my part.  It is due south. 

C4 opting out after 2022 might not be a bad thing. Although Lewis might not be back until mid 2023?

(you recall incorrectly

C4 is taking $$$ off the table every plate appearance. I think he'll be back, he'll still only be 28 for most of next season.

Didn't Bundy of all pitcher's go 7 ot was it 8? Against Colorado or Arizona?

Eight innings in an 11-1 win over Arizona on June 18.

Unless he does a complete 180 offensively fairly soon, I can almost envision that scenario happening.
