The Detroit Tigers begin their final home series of a disappointing 2019 season today against their division rivals, the Minnesota Twins. The Twins have exceeded most expectations this year and currently lead the AL Central by four games.
This is a series that has possible playoff implications. While everyone expects Minnesota to win these games, Detroit has a chance to play spoiler and possibly influence the playoffs if they can win some games in this three-game series. The Twins are currently four games ahead of the Indians who are a half-game out of the second place wild card slot.
