2013 Game 116: I Won’t Call Them Indians vs. Twins

httpv://youtu.be/cqhYchnDNfA

This is the time of year when teams are either playing to make the playoffs or playing spoiler. Tonight's series opener against the Cleveland Clevelanders at Target Field pits the former against the latter. Cleveland is seven games out of first place in the division but just four games back in the wild card race. Picking up one game a week on Detroit positions them for a shot at the division title, while picking up just a half game a week in the wild card race puts them within spitting distance of a playoff slot.

Game 115: Twins 5, White Sox 2

Correia goes 7 innings allowing 0 runs on 5 hits while striking out 7. 

The Twins scored all of their runs in the 5th: Dozier went deep for the 11th time this season with 2 men on followed by Mauer's 9th HR of the year with 1 runner aboard.

The Twins scored 19 runs over the 4-game weekend series on 11 homeruns...every run came by way of the long ball. On the other hand, they were 7-62 with RISP.

After the game, Jamey Carroll to Kansas City for a PTBNL or cash considerations. In 2 seasons on the roster, Jamey hit .257/.327/.301 and saw time at 2B, SS, 3B, DH & P.

The Twins are 7-3 in their past 10 games. They hold a record of 52-63, good enough for 4th place in the AL Central (7.5 games behind KC for 3rd).

Next up -  home against the Clevelanders and a chance to see if Andrew Albers can follow-up his debut gem with another solid outing.

2013 Game 115: Twins at Hosers

Kevin Correia faces Jose Quintana, a reasonably talented 24-year-old, on the South Side.

Here's the prediction spreadsheet.

Four Citizens currently have seven of the playoff-bound teams correct: CarterHayes, DK, Philosofer and sean.

This was the first update since around game 54 of the season, and each league had but a single change: Tampa Bay subbed in for the Yankees, and the Dodgers subbed in for Arizona.

Washington and Toronto continue to be the most-picked non-playoff-bound teams.

Any other AMRs out there can break this down further, if they see the need. We never did settle on a points system for this, so maybe I should figure one out...
