Baltimore has had a similar finish to the season as the royals.....and less playoff experience.
But who knows. whomever gets hot at the right time........

We got swept in Houston the end of last month and the 1st of this month, 4 games. But who knows?
That was in the midst of our 1st 7 game losing streak. Last edited by PHOG; 09-26-2024 at 02:03 PM.. |

The big key is we need to win tomorrow or have Minny lose tonight and tomorrow so we can set our rotation for the series. Singer pitching tomorrow for us. Ideally, would like to save Lugo and Ragans for games 1 & 2 in Houston. |

Lol Detroit is 9-1 against the White Sux. I doubt they lose, but maybe the Sux can pull one off.

The weird thing is the Sux seemed semi motivated right now to NOT get that 121st loss, so they actually played a decent series against the Angels and finished the sweep today, so I think their going to go into Detroit with a little motivation. Of course, that all goes away as soon as they lose one but who knows, maybe Friday they pull off a crazy win?
That said, if we manage to get in, I honestly don’t want to pass Detroit at this point. I’d rather get the last Wild Card and play Houston. We match up better with them. And then if we somehow managed to pull that series off, then we play Cleveland. I like that matchup better than any other potential matchup in the playoffs. We need to be rooting HARD tonight for Miami and Baltimore. A Baltimore win means a motivated team heads to Minny and still has something to play for (AL East crown). GO ORIOLES! GO MARLINS! |

We just need 2 good outcomes of those 7. There’s a lot of ways that this works out for us. Only a handful of ways this works out for the Twins. Sweeps are hard even against bad teams. I don’t see us getting swept. I don’t see the Twins sweeping Baltimore. By pulling off the sweep of our own against Washington, I’ll be really surprised if disaster happens. Obviously, it’s possible but sounds unlikely.

Atlanta finally announced their starting pitcher for tomorrow; Max Fried. Nothing yet for Saturday or Sunday. They're clearly taking it one game at a time at this point.
Lucky us. |

Correct. Look, Fried is good and I have zero faith in Singer on the road in a big spot but Sale is a different animal. With Sale you hope your guy can find a way to match his zeros for 7-8 innings and get to their pen late. Fried is good, but he ain’t that.
