greg775 Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 (edited) I'd love to see a playoff. Predict it now, though. What happens Sunday? My prediction is Verlander beats us in a pretty easy fashion, say 8-1. Also I say KC beats a Twins team that has given it a valient try, but just can't quite do it. KC wins 9-8 in extra innings. Twins fans applaud the team as they leave the field for battling so hard w/out Morneau. So Detroit wins the division with no playoff. What's your prediction?? Cmon. Pick it before it happens.

flavum Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 Danks goes 8 innings. Sox win 6-2. Twins win the division. I hate to say it, but I think that's what's going to happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MexSoxFan#1 Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 (edited) The White Sox complete the sweep and coupled with the Bears handing the Lions their asses,Detroiters,Detriotians,Detroitites(?) finally realize how much it really sucks to live in that dump and a mass exodus ensues... Minnesota sweeps KC and takes the division (unfortunatly) and in gratitude to Ozzie Guillen not laying down and actually making his team compete,they name their new stadium Oswaldo Guillen Colliseum (they affectionately call it the Big O) and construct a bronze statue of Ozzie doing his infamous choke sign.

WilliamTell Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 I've basically been wrong the last week so I don't know why I'm even guessing. Detroit and Kansas City both win. Detroit makes the playoffs. I really hope Detroit wins the division. They've held control of the division basically the whole year. I know it's a 162 game schedule, but it seems right for Detroit to win the division. Go Tigers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LittleHurt05 Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 it turns out that finale in the Metrodome where Becks & Paulie hit 2-out homers off Nathan is looming large...the Twins should have a one game lead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texsox Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 One game playoff and both lose. The Twins because winter is fast approaching and the Tigers because they have to live in Detroit. Twins win the division, they have so much experience making it happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjm676 Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 Det and Min both lose. 1 game playoff on Tuesday, which Detroit wins. Metrodome somehow starts on fire and explodes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg775 Posted October 4, 2009 Author Share Posted October 4, 2009 For the glass half empty fans, both teams have a lot to lose in the playoff. Minnie will have lost 2 playoffs in a row, finally getting this one in their home dome where they have a fantastic advantage. It would be a major disappointment. Though the good fans would realize with no Morneau they had a great run just to catch the Tigers. Showed a lot of fortitude. Detroit will have choked away a title that was theirs since May. Would be a bitter pill for a team that has had high expectations since Cabrera joined the team and not fulfilled them. It would be considered a monumental choke. Didnt Detroit lead by as many as 7 or 8 games in mid September? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benchwarmerjim Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 the Twins were 7 back on Sept 7, 5.5 back Sep 14, 3 games back Sep 30 amazing run for a team that flirted 2 games either side of .500 for 90% of the season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benchwarmerjim Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 I applaud the effort the Sox gave today. I thought the 8th inning was going to be one of those inning where Verlander implodes and gives up 9 runs because Jim Leyland leaves him in for 125 pitches Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Applaud Peavy and Garcia. You're playing on Tuesday because of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
