Minnesota at Seattle

When the Twins traded Johan Santana, and Francisco Liriano was out most of this season as well, no one expected them to be doing anything except challenging the Royals for the basement in the Central. Here we are approaching Labor Day and the Twins are just one game back. Scott Baker is 7-3 with a 3.74 ERA and has pitched even better in his last three with an ERA of 3.10. The Mariners have been a disappointment all season. Ryan Rowland-Smith has been hit hard of late and we like the matchup here on the runline and will ride the Twins.
