The Minnesota Twins (64-70, 35-31 Home) are running out of time to make a move and get into the playoffs. Not only are they 6.5 back in the AL Central, but four games back for the last wild card spot. To that end, a win against their division rival, the Chicago White Sox (70-63, 29-36 Away) would certainly come in handy tonight.
Game time for this division rivalry is set for 8:10 p.m. EST at Target Field in Minneapolis, MN, with coverage provided by MLB.TV.
Dean Kremer is scheduled to start for the Twins today. Kremer is 2-4 on the season with a 5.22 ER but just a 1.18 WHIP. But since getting acquired by Minnesota, he has gone 1-0 in four starts with a 3.18 ERA. He faced the White Sox when he was still in Baltimore and pitched a solid game (six innings, four hits, one run allowed, and four strikeouts).
Chicago is expected to hand the ball to Luis Castillo. For the season, he is 4-10 with a 5.19 ERA and a 1.42 WHIP. Like Kremer, he was recently acquired by the White Sox. Since making the move, he has gone 1-1 in four starts with a 5.89 ERA.

Our Minnesota Twins vs Chicago White Sox Prediction
It is hard to have confidence in either pitcher, but I have much less in Castillo than I do Kremer. Kremer has been solid since joining the Twins and has a good history against White Sox hitters (.173, 9-52 with one home run and 11 Ks). Castillo was not great in Seattle, and a change of venue has not helped. He did have one brilliant outing against the Reds, but the other three were not good.
There is a good chance this ends up being a high-scoring game (OVER 9) because of unimpressive pitching and solid hitting. That also makes it hard to go with the run line. I see the Twins getting out to an early lead before Castillo gets pulled and holding on to win.
