OT--Minnesota Twins

You are in 3rd place and looking to make a move before the All-Star break. You go 9-1 in your last 10 games and you make up ZERO ground. Detroit and Chicago both went 9-1 during the same period. Now that has to suck for the Twinkies.

Agreed.
Bad break.

The start of the season killed them this year. Unfortunately for them a 3rd place finish is their ceiling, unless of course they can absolutely dominate the Tigers and or White Sox in their remaining head to heads. I dont see that happening.

im not worried bout the"tiggers", i think were 5-1 head to head against them this year, its pretty clear we got the best team in the bigs! nobody in that horrific NL frightens me at all in the series LOL

Sadly I totally agree with you Playa. But hopefully "those other Sox" will at least make a nice run and maybe give you guys a better series than we did last year in the first round. That was awful.

well tim they gotta get clement back and healthy, and is wells gonna pitch at all this year?

Gander · #8 06-26-2006, 05:23 PM

I doubt you'll see Wells back soon Playa. He made a comeback too early and got shelled pretty good once. I think he pitched 1 other time and did so-so but still got hit pretty hard. Clement will be back healthy soon. They will be in great shape by Sep. Hopefully they can kick clear of the Yankees soon.
