MLB: ***2026 Minnesota Twins***

JV vs Varsity last night in LA. Now tied w/ Cleveland for 1st. Ryan got shelled and Pagan was Pagan giving up 2 ER in 1.2 inn. Gonna have to part ways w/ him, cuz it ain't workin'.
I would not just let Kepler go. A trade piece, sure, but he has been pretty good this year. He has been slumping lately but he has still having an above average year offensively.
I though he had always been considered well above average defensively.
As a life long Twins fan, I want to see them succeed.... that being said, whoever wins the Central this year will likely be a non factor in the playoffs.
You guys are right he is according to the numbers. Surprised me for sure! I've watched a lot of games the last 3-4 years and don't see it but the numbers don't lie. As the numbers don't lie that the last few years offensively haven't been close to his best.
I agree but this new format could allow whomever it is to sneak through the first round, especially since it will be 3 at home.
Toronto’s lineup scares me. Doesn’t seem like the best matchup. At the same time, you never know what might happen in a best-of-3. Will just be happy if the Twins find a way to win the division.
And yet the Twins won the season series 4 games to 3. (Should have been 5 games to 2)
Good to see Arraez break out of his mini-slump.
Now we need to get Correa to carry his weight. Certainly not hitting at a $35 million clip. I'm starting to buy into the argument being made that with his current performance, Carlos might not find a better contract than next year's opt in with the Twins.

If Correa did opt in for another season, the Twins would be more realistic to make a playoff run than this season. Mahle and Lopez are back, maybe pick up a #2 or #3 starter in the off season and they look more stable.
Twins missed out by not trading for another bat at the deadline. Bringing back Nelson Cruz would be interesting if he was released by the Nationals.
He won’t, IMO. They still need a stopgap SS before Lewis comes back (and pray he does what he’s capable of).
