I'd bank on them doing fine from here on out, but even the best bullpens one year can be a total crapshoot the next season.

Jose Ramirez is one of the best players in baseball. 9.3% strikeout rate is pretty incredible in today's game. Currently sporting a career best 164 wRC+ despite a low BABIP (.268 vs career .302) and he's 3rd in the AL in WAR. Seems like last year's power surge was legit.

Any Twins fans up for a 1-week avi bet on this weekend's Tribe/Twins series?

I've been having horrible luck, so if I lose, I won't be able to put your avi up until 6/13, but I will put it up.

Also, it's a 4-game series, so in the event of a split, total runs is the tiebreaker. If that's tied, we shake hands and walk away.

Who's in? @Nosferatu? @VikingFan2k2? @Win TWINS!!!?

The Central this year has to be one of the worst divisions in quite some time.

The Indians have a trainwreck bullpen and currently sit 4.5 in 1st. Tigers/Twins both 6 under .500 and CWS/KC are 2 of the worst in baseball

The big difference is that the Indians have a really good team and time to get their shit together!!

They aren't going very far in the playoffs unless they do some serious rework of the gas can dumpster fire of a bullpen we got going right now. Unless Kluber/Carrassco/Bauer can go 8/9 innings every game. Which you can't count on.
