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.

They won't hit the A's starters.Loaiza,Haren,Zito,Blanton...all simply blazing.If you had Liriano,I would give you a better chance to beat the A's.People who don't watch the A's have no clue that the new additions of Bradley,Thomas,and Payton, are simply knocking in more than enough runs to win games.They lost their closer,and it simply makes no difference(rarely have teams been scoring much against their starters.)If you think the Halos match up well with the Yanks,just wait until the Yanks hit this wall.Ain't gunna be pretty.
