1. Took too long, but Kepler was my first spooky of the season.

   1. 2019 was maximum spooky environment

      1. Heh. Yup.

         1. I was just thinking about this yesterday. That was fun.

            1. That was the spring I had my bypass. Tiger in the Masters and the Bomba Squad were better medicine than any of the the drugs they gave me.

2. One of these games, Chris Archer has got to get more than 9 outs

   1. ok, he has gone 4 innings a few times but its pretty wild how he doesnt get to 5 innings

      1. You mean how he's not let to go five?

3. Luis Arraez, professional on base getter

4. As of his last start, he has pitched more innings this season than any since 2019. Some caution is probably warranted. If he goes four decent innings a start all season, then his contract will have been a success.

   1. Meant to nest this under watts's comment

5. Luis isn't up to .500 yet -- he was due

   1. .343 with a bullet.

6. Ah, damn Joe - you spoiled your ERA

7. Buxton-Arraez-Correa. We got this, right?

8. TWINS BASEBALL!!!!

9. Wasted opportunity.

10. When Arraez has enough PA to qualify, he'll be around 3rd in batting average and 2nd in on-base percentage in the AL.

    1. He's sitting at 130 and needs 130.2 to qualify. He should get there tomorrow unless we go extras tonight.

11. this Chaffin dude is Rod Beck reincarnated as a left hander

12. winner!!!!

13. Interesting -- Urshela's AB said "in play, no outs" instead of "in play, run(s)"

14. Happy puppies!

15. Never in doubt. I'd prefer something less close however.

16. See that block of lefties in the lineup there?

    

    1. I crave larger benches so teams can do exactly this in the late innings.
