Yep. The Twins have kept us in the Playoff Hunt.

Detroit is 10-2 against the Twins.
Baltimore is 10-3 against the Rays.
Houston is 10-1 against the Angels, 10-6 against the A's.

Dipshit, 10 - 15 games over .500 is a good season in baseball. It's not football, where the equivalent would be 9-7. You don't get to slice and dice and toss out games as junk wins. Do the Royals get 2x credit for their last roadtrip conversely?

Nobody in baseball is winning 130, 140, 150 games, which would equate to 13-3, 14-2, 15-1.

538 has them favored to go 11-1 in their next 12 games with the only loss to Sale in Chicago.

They go 11-1 they'll be at worst 2 games out.
I'd bet they'd be 1 out.
Lucky, they sit tied for the 2nd WC.

They pretty much HAVE TO meet that prediction to stay in this. That elimination number is shrinking...

So, something to note. Rey Fuentes was DFAd I assume to make room for Nava. Would have much rather DFAd Starling than Fuentes. Both former 1st round picks. One doesn't suck

I'm still pissed that we pitched Soria in the 8th instead of Kelvin.

The pen pissing away 4 games in 5 days is almost as haunting as July.

What will the o/u be when Volquez faces off against Shields?

Can we use two guys from Omaha to go 3 innings each instead of Volquez now that the rosters have expanded?

I'm a big fan of platoon starting a bunch of relievers.

really bad :(

Anyone truly still have belief that we will make it?

Fire Ned and maybe.

Did I hear 11 times Soria gave up a lead or tie?

Sully still wants to know if everyone wants to cut Soria.

5 games in 6 days.

You did. Not sure if that was before or after he gave up tonight's lead.
