7th ALDS in a row. Need to win the series to increase our record to 7th straight ALCS.
You have to like our chances on paper. But, the Twins are motivated and have enough good starting pitcher to win a short series. It would be nice to see us get off to a quick start at home for once...

Twins' fans after beating the Blue Jays to advance yesterday, "WE WANT HOUSTON! WE WANT HOUSTON!" Be careful in what you wish for. Mariners, Yankees, & Phillies fans chanted the same thing last year..

JV confirmed for game 1 followed by Framber for game 2. Twins recently used Gray, who is probably their best starter. We have to take advantage and win game 1 & 2.

Pablo Lopez is pretty good for them Unless they do short rest, it would be Lopez in game 2 and Gray in game 3. I'm guessing Bailey Ober gets the nod in game 1, though both he and Joe Ryan are untested in the playoffs. Could go with Maeda if they want someone with post-season experience against JV.

Yup, they announced Ober.

Brand new season. Bats averaged 6 runs a game, hit 41 homers and 6 guys slugged better than .500 in August. Hopefully they bottled that and drank it this morning

JV vs. Ober is a must win. Gray and Lopez are both good and really hot right now. Game 3 is especially in the Twins favor with Javier likely going for us. Got to get this one.

LETS GO ASTROS! Altuve 2B Bregman 3B Alvarez DH Tucker RF Abreu 1B Brantley LF McCormick CF Pena SS Maldonado C So he can start McCormick and not Dubon when JV throws, which obviously raises the question...why on earth didn't he up until now?
