Any word on Buxton @Brock Beauchamp? Last I heard he received a PRP injection in his knee...Also, if I'm not mistaken, Sano will be making his first appearance since April...

He’s back in the lineup and CF today.  Sano is playing first and batting ninth.

Hoping Small can go 4 giving up 2 or less…. bullpen should be fine with off day Thurs.

Small has a difficult night ahead of him. If he can navigate the Twins lineup twice and only give up two runs, consider it a success. Once the Twins re-tooled their lineup with Miranda, Garlick, and with a (mostly) healthy Buxton, they're really hard on lefties.

If anyone's in the mood for a little comedy, just take a look at the Cardinals lineup tonight sans Goldschmidt and Arenado. Of course, they'll probably summon some devil magic and win a hitters' fest against the Jays....

How about Twin Wins against the Twins!

[treego14]

Small will pitch Big tonight!

My wifes' cousin runs one of the best Italian restaurants in Milwaukee, so I'm well aware of the potential benefits of adding Garlick.

Well that was no cheapie

This could be a throwaway game.

They are facing Berrios, who managed to give up 8 runs to the Brewers in 2 innings. Might not take devil magic.

Small hasn't pitched in two weeks.  A bumpy first inning is probably expected.

Lol. Remember you saying the exact opposite before that very game...But, yes, Berrios has been bad this year. 

[Brewcrew82]

Come on Urias...

[jason21nl]

For cripes sake.  You have to start making routine plays.  Urias just sucks at 3rd

[jason21nl]

And that’s some awful base running 

[Brewcrew82]

Give Yelich a hug, Urias. 

[willie key]

Well.   That inning was interesting

He has always had issues throwing the ball.

Is that really any worse than what the Brewers trot out there every night.

Yes. It is.

Nine "he said"s in that last segment. ?‍♂️ Though I might have missed one or two.

Berrios had had some good games just before that, and he was matched up against Gonzalez. So, yeah, I didn’t expect much. 
 

It’s flattering that my comments make such an impression on you that you can pull them out a month later.
