2024 Game 127: Minnesota Twins at San Diego Padres
West Coast day game!
Simeon Woods Richardson
vs
Matt Waldron
Twins finally get a day off tomorrow but they need one more day of the the bats and arms performing to avoid the sweep. Royals also lost yesterday to keep the tie for second wild card but Guardians won to put the division lead a tiny bit farther away.
2024 Game 120: Kansas City Royals at Minnesota Twins
Cole Ragans
vs
Louie Varland
Final home game against the Royals. They play one more series in three weeks in Kansas City. Last night's win was their seventh against the Royals and guaranteed an overall season win. I recommend the Twins not lose the remaining four games however.
Varland is back with the Twins officially. He was the 27th man on the roster for the doubleheader, was "sent" back to St. Paul where he made zero appearances, and now pitches again for the Twins.

2024 Game 113: Minnesota Twins at Chicago Cubs
Joe Ryan
vs
Javier Assad
Finally a day game at Wrigley.
The Twins scored three on Monday and won with some excellent pitching. They scored three runs again yesterday but were let down with poor pitching. Please score more than three so the pitchers don't have to be great again.
Final tuneup game before taking on the other AL Central contenders. There's a weekend series with the division leaders followed by three games against the team right behind the Twins in the wildcard standings.
2024 Game 111: Minnesota Twins at Chicago Cubs
David Festa
vs
Kyle Hendricks
Game in progress!
The Twins continue their quest to beat all of Chicago by taking it to Chicago and playing an actual MLB team. Neither starter has been good this year; both have an ERA very close to 7. Festa at least has the shine of a prospect that he could halve his ERA while Hendricks, does not.
2024 Game 107: Minnesota Twins at New York Mets
Pablo López
vs
Luis Severino
Another Wednesday day game.
After a forgettable opener, a lackluster deadline, followed by a lackluster performance by the bats again last night, I'm instead thankful for the blackout rules preventing me from watching any New York games.

2024 Game 101: Philadelphia Phillies at Minnesota Twins
Day game alert!
Aaron Nola
vs
Steven "David Festa" Okert
Welcome back David Festa. Hope you learned a few things in your brief time across the river. Phillies counter with their other ace, Nola. No big deal. Also the Royals have caught up and are effectively tied with the Twins with one more win and loss to their record.
