And then the real Kyle Gibson shows back up in the rotation at the absolute worst time. When they needed and innings eater they get 4.3 innings of true Kyle. And maybe, just maybe, Sano isnt ready for the show just yet? He is now 0-10 in the last 2 games with 7Ks. There has to be somebody in AAA that can play 3rd and hit at least 200.

Gibby struggled, and that sucked. This Twins team isn't perfect, but I sure didn't think they'd be as good as they are. The BSox are the defending champs, and this Twins team stood toe to toe with them.

I think the trade deadline will be interesting, and I wouldn't be a bit surprised to find Sano on his way out. I really like this Arraez kid, and he can play 3rd too.

Ok its got to be me. Ive watched 3 games this year and all three have been L’s. Guess I need to get off the bandwagon.

Gibson had the control of a kid in the candy store.

Sano needs some batting practice.

They may not hit many home runs or take many walks, but both Arraez and Astudillo can/have played 3rd base decently, and for right now I'd rather see either one of them in the lineup over Sano. Astudillo has over 200 career at-bats with a career average over .300 so keep giving him a shot I'd say. Arraez only has about 30 but he's almost at .400 so why not on him too?

Before this season the team needed a guy with power like Sano and all the strike-outs could be overlooked. That isn't the case with the team this year. Every other guy in the usual lineup has been hitting the ball hard and/or over the fence on a regular basis, without striking out 46% of the time like Sano is.

Can the Twins deal Sano, Royce, and an additional top prospoect for Max Scherzer? October could be amazing with a pitching rotation of:

1) Scherzer
2) Berrios
3) Odorizzi

those 3 with our hot lineup is how we can get past the Yankees and Astros to rep the AL in the WS

The rest of the AL Central sucks so bad the Twins will coast.

they have the indians at least 8 more times... I dont know that they way they have played the last couple weeks that they would survive any coasting. even in their wins they have looked like a different club that absolutely monster mashed the month of may.
