Twins should be up 2-0 this series but at least they have not fully collapsed and are at 1-1.
In non-pitching news, Buxton played his 94th game yesterday, the highest total since 2017's 140 (!!?) games. In his 94 games, he's accumulated 3.4 fWAR. Getting to 120 games next year could put him at a 4+ fWAR season.
One game isn't enough to cleanse the ineptitude of the prior week but it's certainly nice to see.
This is Kochanowicz's rookie season and he has an interesting pitching line so far. He's pitched 38 ⅔ innings and struck out merely 12. To be fair to him, he spent the first four months of the season in AA. He hasn't been terrible, but duplicating Nick Blackburn's line in 2024 is a tough thing to do.
