New York Yankees vs. Minnesota Twins: Series Preview

The last 10 days have just been miserable for the Yankees. They went 2-8, featuring sweeps at the hands of the Tigers and Red Sox. They averaged 2.5 runs per game during that putrid stretch and find themselves sitting fourth in the AL East, 6.5 games back of the Rays.

Luckily for the Yankees, they next face the Twins, the only team that has been a bigger disappointment. A team that was favored by many to take the AL Central, Minnesota is tied for last in the division with a 24-35 record.

The two underachievers have gone about their struggles in divergent manners.
