[Official] Twins @ Astros

Tuck was putrid in the playoffs and now look at these clutch dudes walking these fools off

 

1. Paredes is so much better in the field than I expected...and his approach at the plate is brilliant
2. Had no idea what to expect from CAM, but holy crap has he exceeded those expectations
3. Get him healthy and let's talk again in 18 months

What a hell of a trade.

 

Cam reminded me of Correa rounding the bases with his arm in the air.

 

And with all the damn injuries the team has had. I would’ve expected 30-40 before 40-30. He might be stupid, but Espada is winning with what he has in the cupboard.

this is turning into an amazing season.

 

These Twins won 13 in a row last month. We caught them at the right time.

 

Blum stepping on the pbp call on the walk off. Calm down fella, lol. Not sure I've ever heard him so excited.

 

I've got a B+ grade, and he only fails to get an A because of that God awful bullpen mgmt vs the Mariners in the first matchup on the road.

 

They knew the script.

 

Timing is everything.

 

The second the ball left the bat he went into full blown fan mode

 

It's not about who you play, but WHEN you play them. Never more true than in the major leagues.

 

We've been hard on Espada and deservingly so. I've called him an idiot, but I still don't believe he's "stupid". He just outsmarts himself and seems to always be looking for the lightning in a bottle moment (you zig I zag) in some of his decisions when in reality he should just KISS and live with that decision.

 

This team has developed some chemistry and he has to be given credit for that.

 

Are you new here?

 

With todays win, the Astros clinched the season series over the Twins. Could come in handy for a tiebreaker at the end of the season.You never know.

 

All I want to know: did E-Soc "run" out to congratulate Smith?

 

Don’t look now, but The Astros are 2.5 games back of The Yankees for the 2-seed

 

Exactly, and then of course today happens.
