Minnesota Twins series preview: Disappointing their parents

If the Minnesota Twins had bothered to perform at levels commensurate to what they did last year, they would probably have jumped out to a lead in the division. Instead, they’ve been an utter disappointment, stumbling out to a 21-27 start, trailing the Cleveland baseball team by 3.5 games. When you were a playoff team and find yourselves tied with the Detroit Tigers, who were supposed to be awful, things haven’t broken your way.

Game times and pitching matchups are as follows:
