The last game of the MLB series between Tampa Bay Rays and Minnesota Twins will be disputed next Thursday, September 05th at 11:10 am Central Time. For this match, both teams remain in the same line, as they’ve a big obligation on winning to keep their qualifying chances alive.
On the one hand, Tampa Bay Rays is still 12 games behind Baltimore Orioles in the AL East Division, so their only chances to getting into the playoffs directly depend on the Wild Card spots, for which they’re 6.0 games behind. In this regard, Tampa is having a lot of issues with their offensive performance, fact that can be ratified with the bad streak of 0 runs scored by Jose Caballero during his last 7 games. Those numbers are completely awful if it's taken into consideration that he’s the Rays’ leader in scored runs throughout the season (50).
On the other hand, Minnesota Twins hasn’t been able to reduce the gap of 4.5 games behind Cleveland Guardians in the AL Central Division, but they still are 1.0 game above the Wild Card spots. Nevertheless, the Royals are 1.0 game behind them, so the Twins have a big pressure during each of their games to avoid losing that advantage. Additionally, it must be noted that Willi Castro is the offensive leader with 79 scored runs, but he has only summed 2 during his last 7 games.
