Personally, I'd like to see a Twins sweep.  We have more opportunity to control our destiny if Guardians can be eliminated (or reduced to chasing from third place) than we would if the Twins lost this series.  

Sox have more games remaining with the Twins and have fared better against them, so Twins sweep is 100% the best outcome.

They have 8 head to head left. Rooting for Twins 5-3.

Mostly, I just want the Sox to go 16-8 or better and win the bad division with 86+ wins.

Royals final six consecutive games against the Royals dictates cheering for the Twins.

Then, of course, the White Sox need to take care of the Twins.

Padres might still need to beat the White Sox the final week, whereas the Rays (the other final three games for the Guardians outside KC) might have already locked up their Wild Card spot...in fact, they'd have an incentive to lose, because that would mean facing #3CLE/CHW/MIN instead of #4/5 Toronto OR Seattle.

Get hot in September and ride the wave...and yes...I've been drinking.

 

Pulling for the Twins to take the series 2 games to 1, if we sweep the A's we will lead the division by a half game over the Guards and 1 game over the Twins at end of play on Sunday.

A Twins sweep!

If Twins sweep and we take 3 more from the A's, the new standings going into next week will be:

Twins          72-67  .518
Sox              73-68  .517
Guardians  70-68  .507
