Looks like it's going to be summer type weather for this week in Minny in case you are wondering.

I think the Twins take this in 3 games. Good right handed pitchers give the Jays fits and that's what the Twins have.

So, are all 3 games in Minnesota?

Seems a bit ridiculous that the Twins and their inferior record would be gifted home field advantage

An interesting storyline for this series is Springer and Correa playing against each other after being teammates for 6 seasons in Houston and winning a WS together. And the winner gets to play the Astros the next round.

Gausman has not pitched well historically against the Twins. 1-4 with an ERA of 6.35 and 65 strikeouts in 11 appearances against them.

Much of that was when he was an Oriole early in his career and a different pitcher and player but still. It’s far from a certainty.

I'd love to see Toronto do to Minnesota what the Mariners did in Toronto last year, taking both games and snuffing out the home side......but I think Minnesota's losing streak ends this week.

Still......Jays in 3.

Can't wait for this one. I think this series has the potential to be the most fun. Nice pitching matchup as well today.

Only good thing is their starter certainly doesn’t look like he can’t be hit though.
