It was pretty apparent Alcala had not found the magic potion in Boston in his return to Target Field last week with the Red Sox.

Tight game. Needed GPS to find the strike zone.

They could always bring him back again. What’s the downside with the bullpen that’s left after the trades made.

Austin Martin hat trick of blunders tonight!

Yep, he has not had a good game. We'll see if the Twins can close this out.

They are the future. Both could be outright great!

Don't really blame him on 2nd one, tough play. Guess he could have just tried to cut it off to save 1 run. 1st one shoukd have been an error.

We got to face the bad Chris Paddack.

If they still have spots on the 40 man, yeah I guess pretty low risk.

I would tend to say if a player has been cut loose twice in a month, probably not a great idea.

 

[Ope3]

Paddack trade already paying dividends.



Bonus on the Polanco trade with Topa getting the Save.

God, what a great night that was!

Apparently the backup CF is Roden, who's also the leadoff hitter. Don't get it, but there's a lot about this season I don't understand.

3 hitters in the lineup today with a BA less than .200 including our DH.

1 hitting lead-off and the DH hitting 9.

Cody Clemens with the "almost, but not quite" robbery. So close to taking away a homerun.

 

[GophersInIowa]

Gasper is DH today. No one stopping us now.

Michael Rand has a column now opining "could a healthy Keaschall have changed the Twins' entire season". I initially dismissed it as a major overreaction. Maybe he's on to something.
