    Imagine getting Aaron Judge for Stanek... that's kinda like what we did to the Dodgers

    Because he is a leader on that team and it's the playoffs.

    Agreed 100%. I was at the game and was amazed at the booing. The man is a legend, and only did what was right for his family. If I remember correctly, the Astros didn't even offer him a contract.

    Twins fans IQ check



    Their best player was a captain on the 2017 team.

    Correa is far from their best player..but I get your point. I think he's a captain on their team too.

    I was there. People didn’t boo at the intros. When he came up to bat, I didn’t boo but I understand why people booed. They booed because he’s one of the Twins best players, he’s famous/remarkable and we’re Astros fans. Duh.

    Gilbert would've thrown a CG shutout.

    Yordan needs to mash the entire playoffs for us to stand a chance

    Consider Orioles, Astros, Braves and Dodgers were anywhere from a significant favorite to a prohibitive favorite.

    Orioles LOSE
    Braves LOSE
    Dodgers LOSE
    Astros WIN

    One of those losses was an 8 inning gem against Boston in the 2013 ALCS - where he made one mistake to Mike Napoli that was hammered for a solo shot - and got NOTHING in support.

    where did you get that number from? I don’t’ think it’s right

    edit: oh, I got it. You mean AL-only, without World Series…
