    I'd say that it's more about the pitcher's inability to get guys out without relying on hitters chasing than it is surprise. They Yankees, and other legitimate contenders, have lineups full of guys that simply don't chase and don't get themselves out very often. They wear out opposing pitching staffs. That's how they have to win in the regular season and that's the recipe for success in the postseason. That's also not a thing the Twins have done a good job of all year on either side of the ball. They can be free swingers in the AL Central and get away with it. They can throw stuff in the opposite batters box and get away with it in the AL Central. In my opinion, level of season-long competition plays a huge role in preparing a team for the playoffs. The AL Central has been bad for most if not all of its existence. That's not the end all since there have been WS winners that have come out of the Central, but they're more of the exception in my opinion. This team was built to beat up on the AL Central, not to be a true contender. There are plenty of people on these boards that have been saying that all year. It sucks, but that's the unfortunate reality.

    Put your almanac away, Biff!
  3. wsnydes
    That would please me, yes.

    And go with 11 pitchers?
  5. wsnydes
    I'll just hand your beverage back and everything will be fine!

    Thems fightin' words!
  7. wsnydes
    Don't judge!
  8. wsnydes
    That actually would have been preferred.
  9. wsnydes
    Might be interesting to see how Costas would work in compliments for the Yankees!
  10. wsnydes
    Michael Scott approved.

    What's the worst that can happen? I'll even hold your beverage.
  12. wsnydes
    So stolen bases ARE still a thing?
  13. wsnydes
    Wow, Judge flashing the leather again!
  14. wsnydes
    Exactly. Duffey pitched a pretty critical point in the game too.
  15. wsnydes
    Fair enough. Still game to be played though.
  16. wsnydes
    Baserunner!

    Seems to be what you are insinuating. My point is that there is more baseball to be played. No reason to get too worked up when the Twins are just as capable of putting up runs in a hurry. That's all I'm saying.

    So I guess that's impossible and we should all go to bed?
  19. wsnydes
    It's only 2 runs. And the sixth inning.
  20. wsnydes
    Neat.
  21. wsnydes
    Good thing you have date night tomorrow!
  22. wsnydes
    But I like it enjoyable. Why would I ruin a good thing?
  23. wsnydes
    The voices in my head are just musically inclined.
  24. wsnydes
    I'm almost always listening to music. So much more enjoyable.

    Yaay!
