The struggling Twins begin arguably their most important week of the season tonight in Chicago. A two game series with the hated White Sox, then a four game set in Boston. The White Sox have been just as horrendous as the Twins so far this season, and for that matter, so have the Tigers. We always struggle in Boston, and the Red Sox's line up is off to a slow start. With that said, it looks like a sure bet that the Red Sox line up will "wake up" this week against our mediocre pitching. In my opinion I see the Twins going 1-5 this week, a record almost sure to bury the team deeper than they can climb. I hope I'm wrong, because a summer of crappy Twins baseball makes for nothing on TV. But, the way things are going at this moment, it's hard to talk myself out of the 1-5 prediction.
