Welcome to July, Minnesota Twins Fans. After an ugly sweep at the hands of the division-leading Chicago White Sox, the team now sits at 33-46, two games behind the third-place Detroit Tigers and half a game ahead of the woeful Kansas City Royals.
79 games into the season (two less than halfway through the year), the Twins are 14.5 games out of first place and even as the team gets healthier (Max Kepler, Luis Arraez, and Kenta Maeda all just came back from injury), the team is still in bad shape.
