The Twins will beat the Astros

[JMobile]

Not just because the Twins have a better record but because the Twins have better offense pitching.

[ThaTopMoron]

indians are 4 seed and have to play the yankees...

poor indians

[MinnesotaFats]

Cleveland still has a shot to advance here past NY.

Bieber in gm 1 could beat Cole

Twins should take 2 of 3 here...Houston w no JV and Altuve hitting under .200 of late just doesn't have the depth. MN so happy to not play NYY it's like a piano off their back!

Maedea
Berrios
Pineda

Then Ordeirizzi back for next round!

indians hitters will choke and they won't score

[pilebuck13]

Who knows baseball has been a shit show this year

[pologq]

if the yankees lose cole's start they are done. i kind of was hoping they would save cole for game 2 and hope to steal game 1 against bieber with tanaka.

but don't worry, stanton is not opting out so he will get 218 million for 7 years and wear pinstripes to swing and miss at the low pitch constantly.

[Allure]

Why would anyone be afraid of NYY? They won't do shit.

[deltgen]

These ridiculous best of 3 first round series' are going to see some upsets. In a best of 5 or 7, Twins take it, but best of 3... too much of a crapshoot.

[goduke]

Dodger bias in this pick?

[pologq]

as a fan i agree with you. i have no faith in them hitting against the indians pitching.

[trytrytry]

MN bullpen pretty much a disaster last month, gave up many leads and let teams score late in some they hung on to win. see some desperate moments in last few innings for the Twins. hoping for the best.

wow bold prediction mobile

Yes

Roger's is a disaster and Romo questionable

But that pen also has Rich Hill and Homer Bailey just in case

[hawkwind]

Can? YES Will? Unknown agree with a previous poster 7 games 90%, 3 games 55%

[Roscoe_Word]

Yep...with ya on the Twinkies, JM.

Stros reeling at a bad time.

That's for a different day and we all know what's up

[cincinnatikid513]

best out of 3 no confidence in any team

it's a crapshoot

[champlain]

If you think you know what’s going happen in the first round, you don’t. Astros have been bad all year but they just have to win 2 games and laying -185 on a team who can never get out of the first round against a team who’s gone deep in the playoffs the last few seasons.

[hehfest]

Plenty of playoff experience on the Astros. But the Twins aren't playing the Yankees so they have a chance. None of their (MINN) starters are dominant so why post them here like they are?

Of course we don't.

Line's -155

[pimike]

Game 1 the play is UNDER 6.5

Bieber vs Cole match up.

[spippen]

Hoping to see Astros lose in a sweep. Astros be down by 4 + runs by the bottom of the first of each game and lose, by a score of 12-0 or 12-1. Twins to embarrass them.

[1sob]

Twins win unless Houston finds the trash can they used to win the championship last year

[stackz125]

The twins have lost 16 STRAIGHT playoff games...

[habitualwinning]

Twins win unless Houston finds the trash can they used to win the championship last year

You mean 3 years ago? The Nats won last season. Red Sox season before that. Unless by championship you're vaguely alluding to the AL West and AL pennants but then again most people don't celebrate 2nd place. The Astros were likely cheating for multiple years based on evidence that other teams like Cubs and Red Sox also cheated, but they still only got 1 WS Championship. That's pretty pathetic when you consider it all.

[habitualwinning]

I love how this thread is titled about the Twins but half the posts are about other series, predominantly the Yanks and Indians. Lol.

[PaperTrail07]

the guy will hit a double then leave with "soreness" LOL.....almost unreal...

if the yankees lose cole's start they are done. i kind of was hoping they would save cole for game 2 and hope to steal game 1 against bieber with tanaka.

but don't worry, stanton is not opting out so he will get 218 million for 7 years and wear pinstripes to swing and miss at the low pitch constantly.

+160 on the Stros is the obvious play right?[QUOTE=Roscoe_Word;29742091]

Well tying Game 1 is not good

[Bostongambler]

Maldonado never should of tried to take third.

[Hushie]

Thanks mush

[Orbison]

17 straight playoff losses for Twins

[BigdaddyQH]

The twins have lost 16 STRAIGHT playoff games...

Make that 17 straight. They are a TERRIBLE playoff team.

[JMobile]

Twins can still comeback

[Roscoe_Word]

The Stros were reeling.

Good bets lose some times.

We live to bet again.
