How bout those Twins?? ammmi right?

[gotts]

Resting Mauer, Thome, the bullpen and squaring away the rotation is much more meaningful than getting one more home game.

QFA

Everyone just needs to step back from the ledge, once the playoffs start it's a whole new season!

yeah...

its pretty tough to give up 59 runs in 7 games...good thing they aren't stumbling right before the playoffs though, because that would be.....oh wait....
Well, its not like if they played .500 ball they could have locked up home field through the ALCS or anythi........oh wait again.
Well, at least their best power hitter hasn't been out over 3 months with something like a concussion in a non-contact game because that would be silly and......oh wait
well, at least they are guranteed 2 home games for the playoffs. Good for them.

Make that at least 3 home games

Last time i checked the first round was 5 games....if you get swept by the yankees, you only get 2 home games.

WHoops. Brain fart by me

Twins just ruled out Morneau for the entire post season. It's probably a good thing, it's not like he could be expected to come in and hit .400 against playoff quality pitching.

Good preview of the opponent.

AG is usually a very good read for Twins-related stuff.

Twins up to a +156 dog for the series now.

If CC goes short rest, the Yankees have a great shot at game 4, but I'm not totally sold that they automatically have game 3 in the bag since it's at Yankee Stadium.
