The Minnesota Twins and Chicago White Sox meet Tuesday in MLB action at Guaranteed Rate Field. The Twins look for a win after winning seven of their last nine games. The White Sox need a win after losing seven of their last nine games.

The Minnesota Twins have scored 17 runs in their last three games and four or more runs in five of their last six games. The Twins have won seven of their last eight games when scoring four or more runs. Nelson Cruz leads the Twins with 70 hits and 42 RBI while Jorge Polanco and Luis Arraez have combined for 119 hits and 51 RBI. Kenta Maeda gets the ball, and he is 3-2 with a 4.85 ERA and 50 strikeouts this season. Maeda is 2-0 with a 3.60 ERA and 20 strikeouts in his career against the White Sox.


The Chicago White Sox have scored 12 runs in their last three games and three or less runs in seven of their last nine games. The White Sox have lost seven straight games when scoring three or less runs. Tim Anderson leads the White Sox with 77 hits and 26 RBI while Yoan Moncada and Yermin Mercedes have combined for 133 hits and 72 RBI. Lucas Giolito gets the ball, and he is 5-5 with a 3.80 ERA and 110 strikeouts this season. Giolito is 5-7 with a 4.74 ERA and 77 strikeouts in his career against the Twins.

The Twins are 4-0 in their last 4 road games and 7-2 in their last 9 overall. The White Sox are 44-18 in their last 62 home games and 2-7 in their last 9 overall. The over is 37-15-4 in Twins last 56 overall. The over is 5-2 in White Sox last 7 overall. The Twins are 0-4 in the last 4 meetings in Chicago and 1-6 in the last 7 meetings.

Maeda has been up and down all season and I’m not sure I trust him on the road. The White Sox offense is due for a bounce back performance and Giolito has been rather consistent all season, allowing two or less earned runs in eight of his last 10 games. The Twins are playing their best ball of the season, but it takes a bit more convincing. The White Sox are better than what they’ve shown lately. These things will even out. Give me the White Sox.
