    18 straight losses for the Twins, that's brutal

    **** you Tyler!!!!! Braves beat the Reds wasting Bauer's day. Now if the WSox can come back it'd be even better.

    No Verlander. No Cole. No closer. No set-up man as he is now the closer. Lance didn't pitch. Who would have thought that the pitching staff would have carried this team? Go Stros! Great to watch us perform in the playoffs after a shortened season of suffering!

    The 2020 Houston Astros are the first ever MLB team with a regular season losing record to win both a Postseason game and series.

    1981 Royals went 50-53 and made it in due to weird strike season playoff rules, but got swept by the Athletics.

    That relay to get the out at home was big but I have to GIVE DUSTY CREDIT. Pushed all the right buttons in this series, Only two games but they were zeroed in. Experience is priceless!

    The Astros slander on twitter has grinded to a stop.

    Rather play the A’s than deal with the White Sox lineup plus Giolito

    Text I just got from a Twins fan
    “Congrats but not much of a challenge this year”

    I'm loving being the bad guy!

    Key to the White Sox is to not pitch a left hander vs them. They destroy lefties...mere mortal against righties.

    I am thinking this may be the year for the Rays to come out of the AL

    I want to send a shout out to Geddy Lee and apologize for Tampa Bay beating the crap out of your Blue Jays so early in the game while being up 1-0 in the series. That's a lot of baseball left in the game to play with virtually no chance of coming back from that. Sorry, Ged! :eek::confused:
