For the A's it's customary for them to make huge runs after the all star break. They keep getting rid of guys, but it's the same trend every year for them. They start slow as hell, especially their bats. But then they always go on big runs the last half of the season. The one constant with them has always been solid pitching.
As for the Twins. It's amazing they've been able to maintain this run. Liriano is hurt, Radke is hurt, and Silva sucks. Hopefully Bonser and Garza can just be "adequate". Because the "piranhas (as Ozzie Guillen calls them)" keep hittin the ball. The Twins have been pretty good for about 5 years now, but there hasn't been a team this fun to watch (as a Twins fan I mean) since the '91 World Championship team.
