I like being on the other side of these games for once

I don’t know about you, but I like being on the winning side of a late inning comeback for once (twice now) after being on the losing end sooo many times.

Talk about the perfect cure for a couple late-inning blown relief appearances. Doing the same thing to another team is...savagely satisfying.

Anyone else in favor of picking up 1.5 games on the Guardians today?

And doing it against a really good closer as well!

It definitely puts me in a better mood. But think about this - if the Twins had won 2 of those blown losses, they’d have a 7 game lead over the Guardians. If they had won three of the blown games, they’d have a very comfortable 9 game lead over the Guardians. The upcoming games against the Sox are crucial to go at least 4-3 and preferably 5-2. We currently have a 5.5 game lead over the Sox. Each game is a two game swing. The difference between going 2-5 vs going 5-2 would be a 2.5 game lead or an 8.5 game lead over the Sox. (Obviously this doesn’t take into consideration the two series between the two series with the Sox).
