While I wait for this game I'm watching Kentucky vs Auburn in basketball. 

7 minutes in Kentucky is up 23-2. This might be hysterically bad. 

 
Last night, Garrido had 2 priorities for the remaining 3 games.

1. Get Johnston in during a live situation.

2. Give Mathis a shot if a RHP presented an opportunity to start.

Regarding #1, the fact that Augie had him pitch with a 5-run lead tells you all you need to know about the depth of UMinn's staff.
