The MLB postseason is set to begin on Tuesday afternoon with the Wild Card round.

The one matchup that a lot of people are interested in is the Toronto Blue Jays taking on the Minnesota Twins.

Despite the Twins hosting the series, the Blue Jays are a team many people are picking.

Most of that is due to the Twins’ inability to have success in the postseason.

The Twins have lost 18 consecutive postseason contests.

That is a losing streak dating back to 2004.

But the Twins are hoping that this is the year they can end the drought.

They received some good news involving a few of their players before the series begins on Tuesday.

According to Bob Nightengale, Carlos Correa and Royce Lewis will be on the postseason roster.

Both players missed the final two weeks of the regular season and their playoff status was uncertain.

Both will be welcome additions to a lineup that needs as much firepower as it can get.

Lewis and Correa are both middle-of-the-order bats that should play a significant role in their success.

Correa has a ton of postseason experience under his belt from his time in Houston, while Lewis has finally come into his own this year after many seasons battling injury.

There is no question both of these players need to be in the lineup for the Twins to have success.

Twins fans do not just want to see their team end the winless drought.

Winning the series is the most important thing to them.

They certainly have their work cut out for them facing a strong Blue Jays team.
