Winnin Ugly Posted May 31, 2005 Share Posted May 31, 2005 is 14-12 so once we start playing the AL Central teams again we should run away with the divison Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nvxplorer Posted May 31, 2005 Share Posted May 31, 2005 I agree. Minnesota is only 14-11 within the Central (13-6 against the bottom feeders). Interstingly, St. Louis is only 13-13 outside the NL Central. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jabroni Posted May 31, 2005 Share Posted May 31, 2005 (edited) We aren't running away with anything. We play the Twins 13 times in August and September. Those games will likely decide the division. Edited May 31, 2005 by Jabroni Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definetly our defining moment...hopefully by then Kenny will have made a trade for a big bat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully this time around we still can find a way to beat them instead of having a meltdown against them like we did last season.

The Twins will be close enough to us to take us over all year if we have a long losing streak. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Be Good Posted May 31, 2005 Share Posted May 31, 2005 Hopefully those 4 East teams beat up on eachother, so the Wild Card does indeed come out of the central. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For that to happen...we're going to have to find a few teams outside our division to actually beat up on. We can't go losing series to teams like Oakland and Tampa Bay while teams like Minnesota, Boston, Baltimore, and NY fatten up on those 2.

Those games will likely decide the division. I agree 100%. One comforting thing is that even with the mediocre ball the Sox have been playing lately, the Twins haven't been doing anything worth noting either. But we all know the Twins play their best ball down the stretch, and with a younger team than previous years, this probably will be more so, as many of these guys get comfortable with their roles.

tonyho7476 Posted May 31, 2005 Share Posted May 31, 2005 I don't have numbers to support it...but if you win in your division, and play .500 outside of it, you will be in good shape. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
