The second game of the MLB series between Tampa Bay Rays and Minnesota Twins will be disputed next Tuesday, September 03rd being necessary to remark that these teams are crossing through very different scenarios in this last part of the regular season. Nevertheless, both teams are urged for the victory in this series of 4 games between them.

On the one hand, Tampa Bay Rays is 11.5 games behind New York Yankees in the AL East Division, so the only chance they’ve to qualify for the playoffs is reaching the Wild Card’s spots. For that objective, Jose Caballero, Jose Siri and Yandi Diaz are the key offensive players, as they dominate the scored runs, home runs and hits, respectively.

On the other hand, Minnesota Twins still have a lot of chances to dispute the AL Central Division as they’re only 3.5 games behind Cleveland Guardians. With that in mind, Willi Castro is expected to carry on with his batting performance, as he has been able to score 79 runs and 123 hits throughout the regular season.
