The Minnesota Twins have been an awful team the past few seasons, but they have gotten off to a decent start this year at just two games below .500. Cleveland was a playoffs team last season, but the Tribe looks anything like that team this season as they own a 15-19 record coming into this one. One reason for the struggles is their ace, Justin Masterson, has just one win on the season while pitching to an ERA of over 4. Minnesota has already gotten to Masterson this season, touching him up for 6 runs in less than four innings of work, and his track record vs. the Twins is not very good as he is 3-7 lifetime against them. The Twins are now 5-2 in their last seven vs. a right-hander, while the Tribe is 3-7 in their last 10 vs. a right hander. All Minnesota in this one.
