After a pretty good middle of the month in August where the Twins were the hottest team in baseball to suddenly dropping 4 of the last 5 games and we are suddenly 12.5 back in the ALC and suddenly 5.5 games back in the wild card race.
They gave us hope and then their bats went silent.
Tonight we open a 3 game series at Kauffman Stadium in KC. Also tonight, we see Baker replacing Joe Mays in the rotation. Mays has been dumped into the bullpen as he's been pretty poor (all year really).
so, tonight the matchup is Baker (1-1, 2.77 ERA) vs Carrasco (5-7, 4.88 ERA) in a 7:10 game (CT).
