Before you start answering questions, here’s a little glimpse at what the two teams are up to heading into the weekend set.

Minnesota Twins

As a team many expected to contend for the American League Central title, it has been a bumpy start for Minnesota. Thursday’s 4-3 win over the Boston Red Sox snapped a five-game losing streak for the Twins, who are 6-7 despite having outscored opponents by 13 runs so far this year. That run differential is the third-best in the American League behind Boston’s +23 and Chicago’s +16.

The Twins are Top 10 in just about every major offensive category and they are ninth in ERA (3.30) heading into Thursday night. Where has it gone wrong? Mostly in the bullpen, which has blown three saves while compiling a 1-5 record and 4.08 ERA.

Byron Buxton, however, has been the biggest storyline with five homers and nine RBIs in just 32 at-bats this year. He and Cruz form a middle-of-the-order that is as good as anyone. Donaldson is just returning from a season-opening trip to the injured list, so a summer filled with homers could be on tap for the Twins.

Los Angeles Angels

The Angels are what they always tend to be – great at the plate, suspect on the mound. A 7-5 start has them on the heels of Seattle in the AL West coming into Thursday’s action.

But unlike the Twins and their run differential line, the Angels are a minus-4, and the 65 runs they’ve allowed to this point is tied for second-most in the American League. (Only Tampa Bay’s 68 is worse.)

Trout is – well, Trout.

He’s hitting .381 with four homers and an OPS of 1.271. He doesn’t lead the Angels in RBIs – that honor falls to Shohei Ohtani’s 12.

But again, the Angels' problem is pitching.

The Los Angeles staff has a 4.88 ERA – 22nd in the Majors – and their relievers are allowing a 1.37 WHIP, which is in the bottom third.
