SWSiouxMN Posted September 24, 2017 Posted September 24, 2017 Will be hard to get it down to two tonight, needing KC, LAA, and TEX all to lose. Unless the Twins totally collapse and lose out its back to the Bronx for the Wild Card game. How things have changed in a matter of 4 days. Quote
SWSiouxMN Posted September 26, 2017 Posted September 26, 2017 Will the Twins clinch tomorrow? I say, yes they will Quote

Twins are 5-1 in Cleveland this year, Big Sexy on the mound against the team he started his career with in what might be his final start of his career, bats are red hot. Anymore signs that I can find? Quote
Wilbur Posted September 26, 2017 Posted September 26, 2017 How on earth are they going to win the playoff in NY? If they don't have a lead going into the 7th inning it's over with NY's bullpen. Santana is going to have to pitch the game of his life with some luck because umpires are afraid to call strikes on pitches not offered at by the Yankees. Would love it to happen.....just not seeing it. Good experience for this young group going forward. Quote

Gray is a good pitcher, but is he New York Yankee postseason kind of a pitcher? They have nothing to lose, nobody excepted them to be at this point, so why not now? In a 5 game series, I say the odds are not in the favor... in a one-off: They are capable. Quote
SWSiouxMN Posted September 27, 2017 Posted September 27, 2017 Well the Twins held up their end of the deal... Chicago not so much. Make it 6-1 in Cleveland this year 1 is the loneliest number Quote

Wilbur Posted September 27, 2017 Posted September 27, 2017 Helluva win for the Twins. Cleveland is the best of the best. Young Twins just keep making strides. Quote

The Sicatoka Posted September 28, 2017 Posted September 28, 2017 Twins fans were White Sox fans last night. Quote
BarnWinterSportsEngelstad Posted September 28, 2017 Posted September 28, 2017 The only good thing about playing the Yankees (assuming Boston is in) is that it's a 1 game series. We could do it! Quote
darell1976 Posted September 28, 2017 Posted September 28, 2017 As an Indians fan I will cheer for the Twins over the Yanks. Quote
Walsh Hall Posted September 28, 2017 Posted September 28, 2017 It will be interesting with both teams able to set their rotations and 25 man roster for just that one game. They can reset the roster for the ALDS so basically only one starter in the 25 players. I wonder if they will go with Santana, followed by Berrios for a couple innings, or if they just turn it over to the bullpen. Quote
SWSiouxMN Posted October 1, 2017 Posted October 1, 2017 Good to see Big Sexy finish with a strong outing, if that was is final start of his career. Twins got way more than they should have out of that deal. Quote
siouxforcefans Posted October 3, 2017 Posted October 3, 2017 Tonight's the night! The Twins will actually play in October... It may be one game, or it may the first of several. Either way, I'm glad to be caring about baseball this time of year! Quote
Shawn-O Posted October 4, 2017 Posted October 4, 2017 Severino done after a third of an inning! 3-0 Twins. Quote
