Oakland at Minnesota

The Minnesota Twins lost 99 games a year ago and by the looks of things this year, they may top that number before it is all said and done for 2012. The Twins were just swept three straight by the Tigers and their bullpen is in shambles, as well as their starting rotation. Minnesota's pitching has allowed 83 runs over their last 13 games at 6.4 a contest. That makes winning a monumental task. Oakland is pitching very well and can certainly generate enough production off the weak staff in Minnesota to be a live dog. The A's have a winning record on the road and have won four of their last five vs. teams below .400. The Twins are a disgraceful 6-24 in their last 30 at home vs. a team with a losing record. Play on Oakland.
