Front Page: Twins Game Recap (9/16): Berrios tosses a strong 7.1 innings

I agree but it's not gonna matter anyways. The Twins don't have the starters to compete with any of the playoff teams at this point. Anything is possible i guess, but i just don't see it when you have to rely on Gibson and Perez who have both been awful down the stretch here.

Take a look at the Yankees starters and tell me we can't compete with them with what we have.   One guy barely under 4.00 ERA.     Their strength is their offense and their bullpen.   So is ours.     Houston is a different story.   We have about as much chance against them as our 87 team did against the Tigers.   No sarcasm or snarkiness intended there.  They had 9-0 Doyle Alexander with a 1.53 ERA, Jack Morris in his prime and two good other starters.    We were 4-8 against them during the regular season.    Twins were not likely to beat them.   If anything this team has a better chance against the Astros.

I liked the camaraderie on the field after the game. No big celebration but guys just hangin' and enjoying the win. Polanco and Arraez ... Sano and Gonzo... looked like family (send in the memes).

Toss a good game against a quality team and I will be impressed. Glad we got the win.

He did in his last start, against Washington.

Also, there are no more good opponents this season. Be prepared to remain unimpressed, I guess.

Also took notice of those shots at the end of last nights game.  Just love the chemistry of this team.  That's the reason I am fearful should they trade any of the top 10.

The Twins need Jose Berrios. He appears to be back on track after turning in another strong start tonight.

 

So messed up there for a while that some of us had forgotten what he looked like.  Back in form in the nick of time.
