Finally the Twins have the Cleveland Guardians (and others?) right where they want them!


Twins Video

Finally the Twins have the Cleveland Guardians (and others?) right where they want them!  That sounds like a derisive cliche.  Not really.  It's my opinion that what the Twins have needed for some time now, assuming they still have any thoughts about winning the Central Division, is a good swift kick in the pants (or slap in the face?).  Now that they've relinquished the divisional lead to the Guardians, perhaps player attitudes and motivations will change?  The Twins will now have a real challenge staring them in the mirror every time they wake up in the morning.  Going to the ball field to play a game will have a new meaning to this team.  Rather than a mindset of trying to hang on [to a slim lead] for the rest of the season, they'll be fighting to get back into the title position... and keeping it for good.  It might take some time, but perhaps the Twins will look back at this moment as the most important in their season so far.  I'm counting on it...

Not I.

Francona will guide the Cleve club into 1st (youngest team in MLB by long shot). I had the Twins at 79-82 and I think that will be about right.

Hinch will challenge his young club into 2nd with the WSox and Twins swinging from the heels for 3rd place.

With the construction of the Twins it will be hard for them to be competitive. They need a major shakeup right away!

It appears the Twins have a easy schedule for the second half.
