MINNEAPOLIS -- Through his first 10 starts with the Twins, right-hander Jake Odorizzi had a 3.17 ERA and their trade with the Rays for him in Spring Training appeared to be a steal.
But Odorizzi has scuffled since mid-May and turned in his worst outing of the season in a 9-6 loss to the Rangers on Saturday afternoon at Target Field. It was third straight loss for the Twins, who have been outscored by 17 runs over that span, as they've been unable to gain any momentum from their series wins against the first-place Indians and Red Sox.
