Record Comparison

Just for fun, here's something for you to ponder.

Twins Record After 151 games
2002 - 88-63
2003 - 82-69
2004 - 88-63
2005 - 77-74
2006 - 90-61

Twins Season Record
2002 - 94-67
2003 - 90-72
2004 - 92-70
2005 - 83-79
2006 - ???

So all of those really fun teams from the "revival era" of 2002-2004? This team is better. Even more remarkable? The fact that, as mentioned in the previous post, they were 28-34 on June 12. That means they've gone 62-27 since that point, which is a winning percentage of .697; that translates to a record of about 113-49 over the course of a full season, by the way. This is a pretty darned good team, and it sure likes that 21st century team record of 94 wins set in 2002 is about to get re-aligned upwards.
