Tigers/Twins playoff: Who wins?

[fearless]

I don't see a rookie pitcher getting it done in a do or die game on the road. I'll take the Twins.

[Deuce]

Close game, going down to the wire, Minne wins it though. Don't get me wrong, Porchie tosses the game of his life tonight though, maybe 2-1 game 3-1 etc.

[Deuce]

As a team, the Twins have hit .290 off Rick Porcello, though only five hitters have averages higher than .300:
Jason Kubel
.727
Delmon Young
.444
Matt Tolbert
.400
Alexi Casilla
.333
Jose Morales
.333

Playing at home should be important. Twins in a low scoring game

[lakerboy]

Tigers blew their chance. They choked I cant see them getting it done.

[obamaismyuncle]

I like the Twins. Probably going Twins -1.5 +130 and Twins ML -165. Also like the under as well.

[DeluxeLiner]

Took Twins runline +130

[fearless]

100% think the Twins are winning? This isn't the Cleveland Browns against (insert NFL team here), the Tigers and Twins had the same record after 162 games. Amazing.

[themajormt]

I actually like the Tigers as +150 dogs with a solid pitcher on the mound for them... Tigers have good numbers off of Baker...

[themajormt]

Exactly Fearless... With that price I think it is Detroit or no play

[obamaismyuncle]

It is start to be a little concerning how many are on the Twins.

[lakerboy]

Twins lost a one game playoff last year. Maybbe its their turn this time. It doesnt matter who wins cause the yanks are going to smash them in the first round. Its going to be ugly.

[pavyracer]

You saw what happened last night to Packers at the Metrodome. Same thing will happen today to Tigers. The home field advantage is huge not only because of the crowd noise but because of the astroturf.

[obamaismyuncle]

Inside the dome will be nuts today, actually was offered tickets to the game but have a meeting this afternoon. The Metrodome is the loudest by far of all the sports venue's I been to. Their is nothing like it.

[paco]

Fvck the Tigers. They had there chance. Lost 7-9 to the Royals or something like that. They don't deserve it. Go Twins!!

[Deuce]

Don't be a dunce, they need people like you to quit being negative. Times are tough Paco, we fukkin need it, one fukkin time.

[tblues2005]

I pick the Twins this afternoon also. They have been the hot team and Detroit hasn't been.

[DeluxeLiner]

Twins remind me of the Rockies of a few years past. They are hot right now, ride the heat. Detroit is pretty cold, like my Dodgers.

[dmtrader]

The Tigers did back into this playoff. They could have put it away a long time ago, by winning series against KC, Minn, or the Chisox.

Tiger bats are cold; there won't be a lot of run support tonight. I believe they will keep it close until Porcello wears out and the Tigers go to their bullpen. Then the Twins blow the doors out of the Metrodome, with Kubel and Cuddyer leading the way (Mauer won't see anything good to hit).

It pains me to say this, but I think the Tigers season ends tonight.

As always, I am still hoping for a Tigers miracle.

[koby25]

I started my own thread about this.

No team has ever lost the title in the last week of season after leading for that long.

[geebert74]

Im going to go with Detroit on this one...

[Madukwe]

I like Porcello going six strong innings and Baker lasting about five

Will be a bullpen game, I like Detroit on the road

[Nickelicious]

Tigers. Happens all the time. Cold team gets it done for one game after sucking for weeks.

I also agree with the under bettors.

[LT Profits]

Twins win, but no value either way.

[Doug]

lean Twins, but don't like the price, don't want to go RL, may do a -1 run action (TV) bet.

[yisman]

I think the Tigers win less than 50% of the time, but if I had to bet based on the current lines...

[Hotdiggity11]

Like the Twins.

[Junkyard Dog]

tigers

[themajormt]

Twins win, but no value either way.

LT I disagree, I think the value is in Detroit.

[SmackdownV]

Classic Twins Sucker Bet day for Vegas.

Detroit wins this game...........Baker is going to get SHELLED.........

Vegas cashes BIG today.

[Wilforth]

If it were a series, I'd say Twins. But this one game, Tigers!

[beach nut]

The Twins will probably pull out the win at home but I think the real value today is betting the total over 8 1/2 runs.

[jpete1966]

The Twins came too far to lose now. The Tigers had plenty of chances to close this thing out but failed miserably each time. Do you really think they are just going to come into the Metrodome and win now because it is the last game and they used to lead the division? I don't.

[JamesBrown]

Detroit ML has value here. I like it!

[TheQ]

The Twins will probably pull out the win at home but I think the real value today is betting the total over 8 1/2 runs.
