Can the Tigers continue to beat up on the Twins this season (7-2 record)? This series could end up determining if we are buyers or sellers. The Twins own the AL’s best home winning percentage with a 28-15 record and are coming off a 3 game sweep of the Orioles. The Tigers are 21-18 on the road. The Tigers currently trail only the Twins by 2.5 games for the last wild card playoff spot.
Price has been excellent on the road this season posting a 5-1 record and 1.86 era in those 9 starts. Lefties are hitting .268 and righties .241 against him. Price is 2-0 with a 1.80 era against the Twins this season. Tigers are 14-3 when Price takes the mound.
Pelfrey has been great at home. He’s 3-1 with a 1.80 era in 7 starts. He’s only given up 5 home runs on the season and only 1 at Target field. He’s 1-1 with a 3.86 era against the Tigers this year, but he’s 0-3 with a 8.51 era in his last 5 starts.
Tigers are hitting .298 (36 for 121) with 1 home run against Pelfrey. Rajai has an 11 game hit streak. Castellanos and JD each have 9 game hit streaks. The Tigers are batting .328 and are averaging 6 runs per game in their last 12 games but have managed just a 6-6 record over that span.
VMart was hitting .216/.308/.578 when he went to the DL on May 19th. He is now hitting .274/.341/.720 on the season since returning from the DL on June 19th.
The Twins are batting .246 (56 for 228) against Price. Dozier is 6 for 24 with 2 homers, Hunter is 8 for 29 with a homer, Plouffe is 7 for 18 and Mauer is 5 for 30 with 7 strike outs.
The forecast for Minneapolis calls for clear skies and temperatures around 80 degrees for first pitch tonight.
