For all the winners out there. I'm surprised I haven't dug up this tag yet.
Pretty sure I saw this tour...

Loading... Bailey Ober pitches against some newcomer who goes by the name of Greinke.
Man, that guy is still good.
Drew Strotman pitches well in a loss. A big day for Ernie De La Trinidad. Tyler Palm pitches well in relief. Bradley Hanner has a good game.
I believe Ralphie L is responsible for all of the US uniforms this year(?), and I'm hard pressed to think of one that I liked.

The Twins made multiple deals ahead of the trade deadline last week as they "retool for the future." No word on when that future is expected to arrive. Fans are asked to remain patient while the retooling process is underway.
Griffin Jax on the mound for the Twins today. He's 1-1 in 3 starts with a 6.41 ERA and a 1.35 WHIP, so there's some room for improvement here. Framber Valdez takes the ball for the Astros. He's got a 7-2 record, a 3.01 ERA, and a 1.30 WHIP. Play ball!
I'm ba-ack. We will not try to recap the games we missed, but will just pick up with yesterday's action.
An excellent game from Andrew Albers. Austin Martin wins one in the ninth. Tyler Watson has a rare poor game. Aaron Sabato finds his power.
Anyone remember OK Soda? I loved that stuff. It strangely tasted better out of a glass bottle.

Hiraoka Hiroshi is considered by some to be the father of Japanese Baseball.
Catcher Pepper Bassett was a seven-time all-star in the Negro Leagues.
Right-hander Steve Gasser did not play for the Twins, but was in their minor league system for four years before being traded to the Mets in the Wally Backman deal. A second round draft choice, he did not play in the major leagues.
