Castro with a night to forget in CF. But we didn't score runs anyways. Credit to Pablo for battling through 6 and a third. Not sure why we had Funderburk face Judge in that situation late with a base open, but again, didn't matter since we aren't hitting this series. Joe Ryan to try and avoid the sweep today. Id bet Austin Martin starts in center.
-
Middle relief scary at the moment. I think a guy like Dobnak would have a better chance getting outs than Jay Jackson. Other AAA options: Topa, Varland, Festa.... Kind of bare down there at the moment.
-
Again, tremendous starting pitching. Can't he over stated how good it has been. Another win.
-
The starting pitching has been really good the past few weeks. With Stewart still on the IL, it'd be nice to get a 7th inning bullpen guy to go with Jax, Duran, Thielbar. Maybe its Topa, but I think you make Varland that guy if Stewart is going to be out longer than you expected.
-
Twins on their way to another series win. Pablo getting pulled now up 9-1 in the 7th.
-
Duran and Jax weren't available and Rocco still takes out Ober after five. Even with the long winning streak the fanbase is turning on El Rocco. Maybe that's just the way it is in professional sports. Had a friend at the game last night and he said among the light crowd that was there you had some angry folks in the later innings.

Who do we think leads the team in points? The logical choice: Berg The sexy choice: Mac The dark horse choice: Omac Emery and Mac should make the all rookie team. -
Hopefully he can crack down on the penalty minutes. See he's got a bit of a mean streak/edge to his game.

Town Hall meeting with Chaves, Martinson, Jody Hodgson on Tuesday at the Betty. "The thought process is to be as transparent as possible with information." (Bill Chaves) Anybody going? I read as well that there have already been questions submitted through an online portal.
-
Hopefully E.J. Emery is here for two plus seasons, a lot will depend on who drafts him. Late first round/early second from the looks of it, but if you're a team that needs help on the back end taking a 6-4 kid that is a defensive defenseman is never the wrong choice. A lot of those teams in the top 10 would get a gift to get a top ten kid and then him early in round 2.
-
Had to end sometime. Keep winning series now. Picked themselves up off the mat after a bad start.
-
And that's a kid that many questioned being on the team.
-
Was the major a legit call?

While we Twins fans are basking in our glory, look at Emilio Pagan's stats from yesterday and smile more.

2024-25 University of North Dakota Hockey Season

Baseball regionals/super regionals are on campus. Volleyball, FCS Football, Lacrosse, soccer, and even the flipping FBS with the new system is on campus the first round. Nothing will happen until BC plays BU in Loveland on a Sunday, but that won't happen because there are always three regionals within a bus ride of their campus. -
Stewart and Buck to the IL. Just when you got Duran back. 11 in a row. Been fun to follow.
-
Guy throws up 17 points and throws up a story about cats on twitter before heading to another school. He must be killer at parties.
-
We went to the streaming services a while back and it was the right move. I used to watch every game, and would love to still do so, but the cost for all the sports channels through Midco is ridiculous, and if they don't have Bally it makes it more ridiculous.
-
6-5 Twins late in the game. Ober gets the game to the 7th and then Stewart, and Jax get it to the 9th. Stewart did give up a run, but I'll give him a pass as its the first one this year.
-
The Twins had every opportunity and heads up to come up with a streaming service like the Diamondbacks. I'll pay $99.99 for a season of only Twins games. Sixty cents per game, I'm sure a number of fans would do the same.
-
Rocco even did his best to blow it with Sands late..... Duran looked good.
-
The crazy part is that now they've got their bullpen in order with Duran coming back. And innings 7-9 should be accounted for in tight ball games. The starting pitcher just gets it to the 6th at the least in a tie or with a lead and you should be able to take most games to the end. You've got bridge guys too like Sands, Funderburk, Jackson, Okert, with Bowman getting the DFA or assignment. Maybe a return of Varland to the bullpen if he can't get starting figured out.
-
Better get the job done sooner than later in the big boy world of professional sports. Overachieve one year, and ending up where you likely should end up based on your talent ends up costing you your job. Either way, I'm sure he has some buy out money from that contract headed his way.
-
Pablo struggles again, but alas we are ahead 10-5 with 6 outs to 7 in a row.
-
6 game streak. Pablo on the mound....with Chicago coming up they could run this out a ways.
