All I had to do was complain!

Absolute insanity how many times the Twins have been killed in late innings by the Guardians last two years

Just trying to make a little joke - but to the point, the pitching pipeline has been elusive at best and I think it's a stretch to say it's an existing "impressive feat" for the front office. Going forward, maybe, and hopefully

Are these later-round college pitchers in the room with us right now?

Tierney has seemed bright in his limited cameos on the left wing and he offers something a little different with his left footed deliveries from that side. Given the dearth of other options would you want to see more of him there (maybe even a start at Girona)? #arsecastextra
