Mariners (39-37) @ Twins (37-40) Jun 23-26...

Being wrong is a good thing. Hope to be more wrong going forward.
Love the 4:40 start time.
Hopefully Julio hits a HR or a couple doubles, and I can read tomorrow about how much he sucks, it's about time, blah blah blah. I'm here for it.

And hey, I blasted on geNO for a long while, so I deserve to hear annoying sh**, I've dished out plenty of geDIOCRE talk.

Solano not in the lineup.

To recap. The Twins have a righty starter on the mound today. Solano is hitting .350 with a .415 OBP and OPS over 1.0 against righties on the season. He's also red hot and coming off 3 straight 3 hit games.

Yeah, I understand they want all the lefties in the lineup against this pitcher today, but again, look what Solano has done against righties this year. Lefty/Righty matchups are super neat and all, but at some point can we please just use some common sense? FFS this obsession with "the correct matchup" is maddening sometimes, and prevents them from going with what is clearly their best option way too often.

Luke is not bad against lefties either

 

[Chapow]

Anyone notice how free, easy, and smooth that swing was? Very different than his usual swinging out of his shoes trying mash it to the moon swing.

Blowing it open in the 3d.

Hmmm maybe Dan knew something?

[Steve Hawk]

That was one of the few times Julio has used a 2 strike swing this year. He should do it more often.

Nah. That's great that it worked out this time, but they do stuff like this way too much.

You know what's a great way to cool off a hot hitter? Sit him on the bench.

 

[sutz]

6-0 bottom 3d. Hopefully, they don't put the bats away going forward.

Yeah it’s nice for it to work this time

I don’t wanna be the eeyore, but I swear he wasn’t looking at the ball on that swing

 

[Steve Hawk]

It looked like a beach ball the way it floated into the zone.

You definitely have a Mariners connection. Not sure if that is good or bad, but I see the connection.

 

[Stanton Sucks]
