After throwing a bullpen today, Bailey Ober is starting at Triple-A Saint Paul on Friday. #MNTwins

#MNTwins claimed C Jhonny Pereda off from the A's an optioned him to Triple-A. Jair Camargo has been DFA'd to make room on the 40-man roster.

#MNTwins lost again, moving them to sixth for the final wild-card spot. Still only five out, but the situation grows bleaker by the day. “We know the situation.” nytimes.com/athletic/65079…

Carlos Correa loves playing in LA against the #Dodgers even though fans boo him constantly. Respects the fan base. #MNTwins

Carlos Correa was robbed of a game-tying, three-run homer to center field. #MNTwins fall 5-2.

With a loss, #MNTwins are behind six teams in the AL wild-card race for the third spot. Their relievers should be highly sought after.

Royce Lewis doubles to right-center. He's 3-for-4 tonight but the rest of the #MNTwins have five hits. They trail 5-1 in the eighth.

The 112 OPS-plus Harrison Bader brought into tonight's game is his best offensive showing since 2021. He's also defending like a Gold Glover, including throwing out Freddie Freeman at home there. #MNTwins trail 4-1 headed to the seventh.

David Festa with three homers allowed, including two to Will Smith. All three locations over the middle. #MNTwins trail 4-1 in the sixth.

Followed by stolen base No. 1 for Royce Lewis. This feels like when Happy Gilmore learned how to putt. #MNTwins

Royce Lewis singles again and looks over to the #MNTwins dugout. The confidence is starting to creep back in.

David Festa has retired nine batters in a row, including striking out Shohei Ohtani in their second meeting. #MNTwins trail 2-1 after 3.

Royce Lewis might be feeling it. He ripped a 113.7 mph single off Shohei Ohtani. #MNTwins

So many confused #Dodgers fans yelling "J-E-T-E-R" at Carlos Correa. #MNTwins

Shohei Ohtani gets it back. Two-run homer off David Festa makes it a 2-1 #Dodgers lead. #MNTwins

Byron Buxton now tied with Max Kepler for the third-most leadoff home runs in #MNTwins history (15), moving him past Chuck Knoblauch.

Byron Buxton belts a leadoff homer against Shohei Ohtani, his third homer at Dodger Stadium in the regular season along with one in the 2022 All-Star Game. He's played here five times. #MNTwins

#MNTwins at Dodger Stadium.

Comprehensive big board of the #MNTwins roster as the deadline approaches from @AaronGleeman.

"I’ve never been part of a team that’s trying to sell." "I’m going to be sad if they trade me, of course. But I don’t really think about that." "There’s a real chance we have a different locker room." #MNTwins players realize a sell-off is possible. nytimes.com/athletic/65057…
