In honor of Peter LeGrand's birthday, it's time to celebrate a REAL Northwoods champion: the 1991 Minnesota Twins!!! The Twins have won two World Series in the last thirty years, with their most recent team triumphing in one of the greatest Game 7 match-ups in baseball history. Honestly, I think that's most of what anyone remembers from 1991: Jack Morris versus John Smoltz, the Kirby HR robbery, the 1-0 Twins victory. The Twins managed to win 95 games, winning the AL West by a comfortable 8 games. Surprisingly, the 1991 AL West was one of the most balanced in baseball history, with all seven teams in the division finishing at least .500! The 91 Twins were a balanced team, finishing 2nd in ERA and 4th in runs scored per game in the AL.
So say hello to a team that gave us all one of the best World Series of all-time: the 1991 Minnesota Twins!!!

Classic Set Previews: TIER THREE PITCHERS
Now we're into the (hopefully) building blocks for the bottom of your rotation and bullpen: the tier 3 starters and relievers. Honestly, there are enough decent starters here to form an entire rotation out of and still be fine. Only the more forgiving point values (i.e. a 5 on at 16 starter like 00 David Cone is only 400 rather than 450 points) make better, Tier 2 aces a cost-effective enough option to make even the most hitter heavy managers pause at that idea.
