Started off the year horrible, and with cleveland's fast start, I believe at one point they were 17 games behind.............. Now with a 7th straight win and gaining momentum with a bunch of youngsters and Mauer's return, do they make it all the way back into 1st place sometime soon?

they were 16gb at one point and at the time the odds on them to win the Central were +7000, now +3000Comment -
I dont know but it sure has been fun riding them lately.
I remember seeing your thread with the odds for twinks to win div obama

I only put $50 on them at +7000-kicking myself now for not putting more on em, the real test is gonna come on this next road trip that kicks off Tuesday in San FranComment -
Cleveland has this won, Twins will be a close 2ed.Comment -
I don't think Cleveland will hang, and other than 2005 the Chi Sox fold like a cheap tent every year around mid August, KC has already folded..I think it comes down to the Tigers and Twins, just the way I see it. But as I said above this next series in San Fran will tell a lot, if they go out there and get swept and the div leaders sweep things are gonna look pretty bleak again..time will tell.Comment -
I don't see it, I think they are too far back. They are playing great right now, but even terrible teams can go on great streaks during a long season. Lets see where they are in August.Comment -

while thats true, they've only made up about 3 games on Detroit and still are 7 games behind them. Cleveland will fade, but Detroit should stay solid.
Even if Det only goes .500 the rest if the way they still wind up with 84 wins. to make it to 85 minny need to go 54-38 which is a .587 win %; Im not sure they are they good, even with things going there way.Comment -
In all seriousness Tribe will not win this div, it gonna be a close race that im sure twinks will get back in. In the end Det is to strong and will win it. Was still a great bet at +7000Comment -
I do not think Twins will even finish over .500
The central division is most likely for Tigers, Cleveland and White Sox have some possibilities; twins have about 4%.Comment
