#-1: Twins (Last Week: -1). I thought that things were looking up, and that turn towards the better continued with the squad taking two-of-three at Texas before the All-Star Break, the team with the best record in the American League. The Twins also won the series between the two at Target Field, so they've gone 4-2 against them. Baseball, and sports, is funny like that.
I was just as surprised that this club has scored the most runs over the past six weeks. Conversely, I saw on the ESPN BottomLine that the Twins are nevertheless on pace to win only 59 games, which would make the 2016 team The Worst Team In Minnesota Twins History. That they're playing better lately has to mean that they'll win more games than 59 ... right?
They kick off the second half of the year at home against AL Central Division-leading Cleveland for three starting tonight. They then hit the road for a three-game series vs. Detroit starting on Monday and a four-game series versus Boston starting on Thursday.
