    Agreed. Was dreading the broadcasts but I think they did really well. Enjoyed Wainright's perspective.

    Gray's a bulldog and he's pitching with a sense of urgency. It won't be easy but I think he will outpitch Javier. And I think the homefield advantage is going to loom really large on Tuesday and Wednesday.

    This. It's 2023. Not 2012. If they trot Verlander out there on 3 days rest, they'll regret it.

    This Twins' team is the product of Carlos Correa. They're following his lead. Statistically, he's one of the best post-season players of all time. Then you add in the leadership, quiet confidence and swagger. Correa is doing for the Twins what Tom Brady did for the Bucs.
  5. Twins_Fan_in_NJ
    Correa's an absolute stud. He's not going to let the Twins lose this series.

    Verlander on short rest is exactly what you want. He hasn't been the Verlander of old for most of the season and while he was dominant on Saturday, I don't think he could turn around on short rest and do the same thing in game 4. Twins can't worry about Friday. There doesn't have to be a game on Friday. Handle your business on Tuesday and Wednesday, end the series.

    Correa's one of the clutchest players in recent memory. Akin to Derek Jeter.

    This. The Twins have options for the ALCS. Ober, Maeda and Paddack can piggyback Ryan's start in game 1 - presuming the Twins win today.

    Honestly, I'd go out longer than 8 years. Sure, it is a risk if he gets injured but it is a risk the Twins have to take. I'd go out 12 years.

    Enjoyed Berrios time as a Twin and wish him a long and productive career. With that said, I hope the Twins unload on him today.

    Houston has the championship pedigree. Do I necessarily think it would be an upset? No. But the talking heads and media pundits would lose their minds if the Twins beat the Astros.

    Not going to lie. When Jax gave up the lead-off double, I had visions of a crooked number inning for Toronto. He settled down and got the 3 biggest outs of his career to date.
  13. Twins_Fan_in_NJ
    Twins need to give Royce a 10+ year deal this off-season.
  14. Twins_Fan_in_NJ
    Getting way ahead of yourself is part of the fun in being a fan. I'll play along. If the Twins were able to pull off the upset and beat Houston, they're going to the World Series.

    Royce Lewis and Carlos Correa - they have it. So too does Christian Vazquez and I think he'll have a 'moment' if the Twins make a run in October. But back to Lewis and Correa. Lewis exorcised about 20 years worth of demons in the first inning and Correa's play to get Bichette at home plate - not sure there's too many shortstops - past or present - that could've made that play. I know people soured on Correa after a down regular season but that play is why he's here.

    Regarding Gallo - the Twins like doing business with Boras. That's the primary reason Gallo is still around.
  17. Twins_Fan_in_NJ
    That's a big time series win against a team that is desperate to win games. Impressive.
  18. Twins_Fan_in_NJ
    Falvey and Levine take grief - and rightfully so, but Solano and Castro were afterthoughts when signed but both of them have loomed large this season.
  19. Twins_Fan_in_NJ
    Hopefully the division is wrapped up this weekend...
  20. Twins_Fan_in_NJ
    I love Willi Castro. He always did well when Detroit played the Twins. They better make sure to keep him around.
  21. Twins_Fan_in_NJ
    I was done with Rocco a couple of months ago. You're far more patient than I am. Being outmanaged. And the games, typically 1 or 2 a week, where the team is just completely lethargic and flat. Teams take on the personality of their manager. If the cameras pan over to Rocco 10 times a game, 10 times we get that stoic blank stare into space regardless of the situation or status of the game. It's time for the Twins to move on but that's not happening anytime soon.
  22. Twins_Fan_in_NJ
    Rocco is tough to take sometimes. WTF...
  23. Twins_Fan_in_NJ
    I don't know. But, I'm terrified to find out.
  24. Twins_Fan_in_NJ
    The strike out last night on Arozorena....
  25. Twins_Fan_in_NJ
    Twins' front office has pulled off a few surprises the last couple of off-seasons so you can never say never. But, I would be surprised if Polanco and Kepler weren't on the roster next year.
