NEW YORK -- The Minnesota Twins entered their 2019 ALDS endlessly pelted by questions about whether this team could end their MLB record 13-game playoff losing streak the franchise carried into October. All the right things were said. This is a new team, a new group of guys that did not remotely resemble the Torii Hunter, Joe Mauer and Justin Morneau-led Twins of the 2000's. Manager Rocco Baldelli assured all listening that the past was the past, and this team could move forward and shake off any of the franchise's playoff demons and winning the team's first division title since 2010.
After two beatdowns in the Bronx, are the 101-win Twins already toast?
