Seems like remember someone asking if this was the magic number as far as being 3 games ahead at this stage of the season. Hopefully the Twins will be able to hang onto this lead down the stretch.
this might sound crazy but here is what i would do if i were the twins manager. we start santana on 2 days rest til the end of the season. He throws 4 to 5 innings in each start and then we go to the pen. He used to relieve so i denfinitely think he could pull it off. Otherwise, the twinkies are starting rookies and gascan silva for the next two weeks 80% of the time.
