First, Twins
Awhile back, I talked down on the Twins chances of making the post-season and Jesse disagreed. Still wanna take the position Jes? Granted, this was before Torii Hunters foot fell off, something neither of us could have been predicted, but come on. I knew the Twins were gonna suck way before you knew they would suck.
The Twins lost 5-2 last night, their 17th connsecutive loss. Joe Mauer is hitting .082, and Jaques Jones is batting -.136 with men in scoring position. Brad Radke, pitching against the Red Sox tonight, recently set a new single season record by giving up a home run on the first pitch of every single game he has started this year, while Justin Morneau is back on the DL after being hit in the face with a pigeon during batting practice.
I like their chances but little.
