We are one quarter of the way through the season and the Twins followed up a very disappointing 7-13 through 20 games with a sizzling 17-3 over the next 20 games. One only can wonder what the next 20 games will bring. More of the latter please.
What a better way to see where this season is going than by facing the Yankees at home. Adding Juan Soto has done wonders for a Yankees team that didn't even make the playoffs last year. Fortunately for the Twins, they had a late night game against the Phillies last night so probably got into town late. Couple that with the very pedestrian Carlos Rodon on the mound for the Yankees, and you gotta like the Twins chances tonight. Chris Paddock for the Twins and he's establishing himself quite nicely in the Twins stable of real decent starting pitchers.
Looks like a gorgeous night for baseball and if you can't get out to the game, it's actually broadcast on TBS tonight (Ugh in MLB's infinite wisdom, this game is blacked out locally). Timberwolves on at 9:30ish so the game can be a warm up for nail-biting NBA playoff action and this post can also act as a game log for that as well.

this is a big steaming pile of cow dung
I got your backs
I hope Paddack gets a better strike zone than that third pitch "ball" to Soto
2nd pitch JEFFERS TOASTED
Such a Twins-Yankees first inning.
qualityCF defence from Castro tonightYah. Playing CF like a futility infielder.
Plus, you know, they left the defenCe in Toronto.
Once again, shocking the Wolves are only down 6 at the half.
11 points with 4 to go in the 3rd. I am about ready to turn it off and go to bed.
18 pts, 7 to go. I'm calling it.
