[QUOTE="Son of Butch, post: 1602546, member: 14585"] 2019 year of the 'juiced' baseball saw the Mn Twins set the new MLB team home run record hitting 307 hrs crushing #2 NY Yankees at 306 :) and well past 288 hit by #3 Houston. The previous record was 267 by 2018 NY Yankees. The Twins became the 1st team in history to have 5 players with 30+ homers breaking old record of 4 held by 12 different teams and Yankees 1st team to have 14 players hit 10 or more. Houston 107 wins (1st) ba 274 (1st) r 920 (3rd) hr 288 (3rd) era 3.66 (3rd) Yankees 103 wins (3rd) ba 268 (4th) r 945 (1st) hr 306 (2nd) era 4.31 (14th) Mn Twins 101 wins (4th) ba 270 (2nd) runs 939 (2nd) hr 307 (1st) era 4.18 (8th) All the home runs hit this season yet no team threatened 1936 Yankees 995 rbi season record. 155 games in 1936 pitchers batted vs 162 today and DH, 5 Yankees accounted for 600 of the 995. 1. Lou Gehrig 1B 152 2. Joe DiMaggio CF 125 3. Tony Lazzeri 2B 109 - Ruth and Gehrig did not get along. Lou thought Babe was a big mouth and Babe thought Gehrig was cheap. They were both right. - quote - Tony Lazzeri Yankees 1926-1939 4. Bill Dickey Catcher 107 5. George Selkirk RF 107 - the man who replace Babe Ruth in Right Field in 1934. Twins went from 103 losses worst in the majors in 2016 to 2019 Central division champs. At the start of this season Rookie manager Rocco Baldelli age 37 was rated the 5th worst (or the 25th best :) ) manager in the majors... mostly because he was unknown/unproven. Twins will be solid underdogs in best of 5 playoffs vs the Yankees. Mostly because of home field advantage with 3 games in NY and Yankees are .704 at home. Winner gets to lose best of 7 series vs Houston after Astros finish off either Oakland or Tampa Bay. [/QUOTE]
