Jarred Cosart

Samuel Deduno
Finally the Twins can beat up on a clearly worse team.
Cosart is now the Astros best starter with Norris gone, racking up 1.3 rWAR in just 21 innings. He's only struck out seven in those 21 innings, which would rank last even on the Twins.

Finally a game I will be able to stay up late enough to watch. Except I will be at the end of a move and internet access may or may not be enabled yet. I hope to come back to an awesome gamelog.

I'll admit to feeling pretty good about the Twins. They're still an awful team, but winning two out of three in New York since ever helps a lot.

After being swept at home by the Yankees, can't say I'm feeling particularly positive about a series in New York. At least now there's a simple reason why the Yankees sweep them: the Twins suck.

Mark Buehrle
Twins face Buehrle for the first time since 2011. It seems Buehrle is still Buehrle. A bit older, but equally capable of stymieing the Twins.

Phillip DeWayne Walters
Hopefully, Walters can record more than two outs before hitting the wall.

Dave Cameron looked at the previous 365 days of baseball so he could point out how good the A's have been. That is the team Jeff must be watching; they really might just win out the season. I link to it because the Twins have a .430 winning percentage over the past year, which would be a two game improvement over last year if they maintained that through the end of the season. I expected this to be less depressing when I started, oops.
