Diaz at 1B for the Rays is having a **** day. Is he always this bad?

Rangers employing the "hit it to 1b" tactic and it's paying off nicely

Advanced metrics have him similar to Abreu.

Should be bases loaded, 1 out, but the ump just screwed the Twins with a strike three off the plate.

TB's defense has really failed them big-time today. And it just might cost them their season.

I think the Twins are better than most think, but if they advance, the fact that they're having to use Lopez and Gray now will benefit us. The Jays have a deeper rotation.

Who are we all rooting for between Toronto and Min? Not sure I care but leaning towards MIn. I guess I am really rooting for a 3 game series

Can the rangers afford Montgomery in FA? Will he go elsewhere?
They have 95 M committed to 5 starting pitchers in 2024 and ~243 M in total for those 5 arms (Scherzer, deGrom, Eovaldi, Gray, & Heaney). I doubt they want to spend too much (75-125 M, I would guess for Monty) when they have quite a few bodies to replace.

It's kind of a high-risk, high-reward play. We should have an advantage in G1. But if we blow it then we have to survive their 1-2 punch in games 2 and 3.

Hopefully we get ace JV and Framber

The announcers have majorly picked up on the idea that Gausman is tipping his splitter

I mentioned it earlier. I assumed it was ARod (maybe its not?). He was basically talking about it being a thing before Gausman threw a pitch. Like he expected it.

Only 7 swings and 1 Whiff.

Arlington ends its six game postseason losing streak with today's W.

Will the Twins end their 18 game losing streak?

You just should never try to score on Correa.

Rough day for the Rays. Curious to see how they respond tomorrow.

Everybody always hypes up the Rays but their postseasons have sucked compared to their regular season output. Especially if they lose this series

2019: ALDS
2020: World Series
2021: ALDS
2022: Wild Card
2023: TBD

Man that replay is even more impressive. Full out sprint and buried a rocket right in the catcher's glove.

Springer on why Correa is a postseason killer: "He's a mental giant."

Sure but how many teams can say they have been to the postseason 5x in a row. They do it with a fraction of the payroll too.

Yeah getting to the playoffs hasn't been an issue … but doing anything in the playoffs has. Minus the weird 2020 season they haven't won a series

One might argue its their lack of star power preventing them from getting over the hump?
