A very disappointing ALDS after going on a tear to capture the division.

What an aburpt reversal of forutune for both the Twins and the Tigers!!

    Very suprised the Twins folded like that, they were so hot and just coooooled off.

    They didn't play "Twins" ball like they were supposed to -- lousy fundamental mistakes killed 'em. They'll be back next year, hopefully with a healthy Liriano and a new addition or two.

    I think when the A's beat Santana and the twins in game one, their destiny was written. It seemed to really deflate them, as if they knew they had no chance. The fundamental errors and bad plays seemed to stem directly from that.

    They had a great year, and hopefully they're back next year (with a healthy Liriano to start game 2).
