OT: How About Those Twins? - HappyViking - 08-11-2017
Nice to see them hanging around still. Anyone as pleasantly surprised as me? Check out the standings here: Click the Wild Card tab http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/standings/wildcard.jsp?ymd=20170811.
Not too shabby, eh - Go Twins! B)

It's too bad that the organization gave up on this season a few weeks ago right before the trade deadline.

And a good closer is worth it's weight in gold in the postseason. Kintzler wasn't a stud, but it's just one less reliable arm in a below average group of relievers.

Kintzler trade was a bust. Kid we got has like 8.00 ERA in A ball.
Hopefully we simply re-sign Kintzler in the offseason.
