I so hope Berríos figures out his mid-game issues from last year and ends them this year.
Whooo! Game log!
I've been waiting for this all winter.
Strike one to start the season!
Very, very nice first inning by Berríos.
On pace for a 0.00 ERA and 18-0 so-w per 9 innings
And never having a ball hit past him
I think he just regressed to the mean on that one.
Is there a Berrios 'K' image? Might get some use out of it this year.
geez, I haven't build season graphics for quite a while...might be time to bring that back again
Random, but how come the Twins have never run a Berri-Os cereal promotion?
Dueling perfect games.
Jinxed.
Way to get out of that one.
6 strike outs in 4 innings, and only 47 pitches. Looking good!
Think I'm going to take things to the local baseball card shop and watch the game on his MLB TV.
Buck!
I love Byron Buxton extra base hits
MARVELOUS MARWIN!
Looks like Jake Cave and the Bad Dee flipped teams there on Gonzalez's double
MarWINNER!
on the board!
Berrios just locked up the Cy Young!!!111one111!!!
should I be comforted that Taylor Rogers is coming in? I have no recollection of him from last year.
Answered.
He is good.
(he has 199 career appearances)
He's riding a 28 appearance scoreless streak. He turned a corner last July, it seems like.
10 hits, 3 walks, and 29 strikeouts in those 26 innings, so he's been pretty good.
I feel like Molitor had a tendency to over use him the last couple years, so I find it humorous that you don't have much memory of him.
Fresh start, man, fresh start. I'm in the best shape of my life, typing the ever-livin' fire out of the keyboard.
Nice
Cruz controlled. 🙁
I got home just in time to hop on the bike trainer and watch the new guys score some runs. Now I'm firing up the grill to make some steaks and I have a four day weekend ahead of me. Could be a good night as long as I don't turn on the wolves.
There go two relief appearances we won't get to see next year.
I could get used to the new "miss bats" pitching regime.
You pinch-hit for your number 3 hitter? Really?
The division might be there for the taking this year.
(also a fun fact, my phone tried to autocorrect "there" in that sentence to Tyner.)

I really think that all 5 members of our bench would have most likely started somewhere for the Indians today. That was a sorry looking lineup. When your best player is out, it is going to affect how the lineup looks, but yikes. The Indians have a better rotation than the Twins, but the Twins have the better lineup and bench. Is the difference between the lineups and bench greater than the rotations? We shall see, I guess. For one day, at least, it was.

Puppies for Rocco!
I DEMAND PUPPIES!
First place!
Start printing the playoff tix!!!
I’m so bummed I had just made plans for the first weekend of the Divisional series. Guess I’ll save money for the ALCS.

I figured I’d start posting when I caught up (I couldn’t start for about 35 minutes) but the pitching was too efficient and things clipped along. Lovely start.

That was fun.
I miss Joe, but that was fun.
