Sparky!  I remember when Tram invited him to ST to sit in with the staff.  Good to see him in uniform again.

Looks pretty close to an opening-day lineup.

That's just what the Twins announcer said yesterday....

Benetti is doing March Madness so Dan Dickerson is doing play by play for Bally today.

Personally. I'd like to see Canha hit 2nd with everyone moving down one.  I think his OBP will help at the top of the order instead of 5th. I'd also like to see Keith bat 8th or 9th to get some pressure off of him as he's adjusting to the Majors, but the bottom of the order is a lot more fluid than the top.

Lead off homer for Meadows!

Boom Colt Keith

Keith crushed it!

I loved those Riley Greene dives as much as anyone, but I enjoy Parker making those catches on the run much much better lol

He makes it look easy.

Riley Greene's running style cannot be modeled by video game AI... 

[romad1]

But, if he hits them like that he don't need to run

[Tigermojo]

Riley 3-0 opposite field homer!

[romad1]

Tork is sandbagging the betting touts, isn't he?

True but I meant Parker makes it look easy with those big strides.

Carp homer!

[Tigermojo]

Our lefties are enjoying hitting off Hamel.

[SkyBlue]

Not a fan of the call at 2nd, if that is how the rule is going to be enforced not a fan.

Should have kept Short and dumped Baez.

So our three game spring training trip ends today with a 1-1-1 record for the Tigers in the games we attended. Mostly all sun and warm enough to enjoy all of the games, almost like being in Florida 😁 Hoping the team can stay healthy the rest of spring.

Headed north in the morning looking at 100% chance of rain to start the day. Ready for opening day.

I'm comfortable extrapolating that to a 54-54-54 regular season record, but I don't think that's good enough for the playoffs.
