On the plus side, Lauer may have just solved that weird six man rotation conundrum by giving up 142 home runs to a AA team. But on the minus side... Yikes, has this game been ugly so far.

Buxton ain't no AA player. Cheers.

No, but 6-7 of the other guys in MN's starting lineup are, which is why you pitch around him, walk him every time if you have to, and dare the others to touch the ball.

Wallner's hitting third, two behind Buxton. His OPS+ is 122. Keaschall's cleanup, his is 167. No.

Also, you wanna just auto-walk the guy who's 19-0 in SB this year. ... smh Come on, man. Other guys hit half those homers last night. Buxton isn't Babe Ruth, here.
