Minnesota at Cleveland

The Minnesota Twins put yesterday's game away early with an explosive 10 run second inning uprising on their way to a 14-3 victory over the struggling Tribe. Cleveland was an early surprise in the AL Central, but has shown their true colors since. The current swoon has left them with 10 straight in the loss column. What is uglier than the 10 straight losses is the fact that they have allowed 88 runs in the process, or 8.8 per contest. The Twins won't be playing in the postseason, but it hasn't stopped them from playing well, as they are 18-16 since June 30, and have won four of their last five. The Indians are an ugly 2-15 in their last 17 with a total posted at 9 to 10.5, while the Twins are now 6-0 in their last six vs. a pitcher with a WHIP greater than 1.30. Play on Minnesota.
