Well, so far, so bad. The Twins have lost the first two games of the series with the Rangers. They did so in bad fashion. They didn't move runners over, they only got a single hit in the first game. This is a big series for a lot of reasons:
1. Who ever has the better record between us and Texas, will more than likely get home field advantage in the playoffs in the first round. If we tie with them, we need to own a better head to head record.
2. We need to show we can step it up against the top teams in the AL. Sure, we can pound on the Royals, Tigers, Indians and Sox, but we need to show we can step out of our division, or we will just be a one and done again.
Those are the two biggest reasons. I know I said a lot, but it's more quality than quantity.
Hopefully we can go out and get them in these next two games just like we did against the Rays a few weeks back.
That is all the time I have for now (lunch break is over at work) but I will be on here at least 3-4 times a week.

This blog is going to try its best to give you a prescription for the positive and negative symptoms one gets from being a fan of a MN sports team.I'm no Dr. However, I do know what it's like to have that pain in every part of my body that you get from being a MN sports fan. You don't need any Health Insurance to get prescriptions here. I will be signing off for them all day.

Not to be debbie downer here but the Twins will go one and done. #1 Morneau's brain is fried #2 Twin's do not have elite pitching and in a 5 game series against most the AL teams, they cannot compete with the other AL elite team's pitchers.
Should've traded for Cliff Lee, yes he is struggling right now but as we have seen in the recent past when he is focused at the end of the year the guy is unbeatable.
Sorry, but nice stadium!
