I think it's fair to say that the White Sox series had mixed results. The pitching was good, the bats were ass. Tonight the Twins travel to Cleveland to start a key early-season series. Already up 3.5 games on Cleveland, the Twins could really start to pad that with some head-to-head victories, or let it slide with some loses.

Bailey Ober starts tonight against rookie Peyton Battenfield. Which is a horrible name for a pitcher. Honestly.

Apparently they play baseball during the afternoon now? 3:10 happy hour start.

Honestly, if I were in Minneapolis, with fewer children and more money, this would be pretty sweet, and there's a good chance I'd head over to the game. I guess poor people who live far away aren't the Twins' target market?

Also, there's a rain delay already. When that's done Pablo Lopez will try to get back to being the ace we signed, not the dud who debuted after signing.

I feel like that roadtrip taught us a little something about the '23 Twins - they should beat bad teams, but good pitching is going to stop them. If only they had a guy like Arraez who could consistently make contact no matter who he's facing...

But today we get the home opener, and maybe Spring is finally here? And the sun is out! And the Sonny is out too, since he's our starting pitcher. These are all good things, right? It's a good Friday!

Alright, I have to get back to work. Go Twins.
