Oakland Athletics
The A’s lost the final in a three-game series with Texas and the opener to this weekend’s four-game set in Minnesota. It was the first time all month that they lost consecutive games.
Some are waiting for the A’s to simply cool down. Personally, I don’t anticipate any such thing happening. Perhaps they will cool a tad but I don’t think this team has been streaking; I tend to believe it’s a great team doing what great teams do.

The offense can get a little light because there aren’t a ton of star-studded hitters with plus power but the runs will come. The A’s have the bodies and the flexibility to make it happen.
Plus, the pitching will keep away any extended losing streaks. Mike Fiers has been great since he came over and I see him as the guy Bob Melvin will use in the wild card, if Houston holds the A’s off in the West.
Minnesota Twins
The Twins have won seven out of ten to get within five games of .500 going into Friday night’s game.
Eduardo Escobar and Brian Dozier getting shipped out ahead of the deadline took two of Minnesota’s best hitters out of the lineup but Eddie Rosario and Max Kepler remain. Jake Cave has also been productive in 175 plate appearances now.

The idea is that rookie left-hander Stephen Gonsalves is tricky but he was far from anything like that in his first career start five days ago against the White Sox.
He only got five outs in that start, giving up six hits and four runs. Four of the outs were by strikeout, for what it’s worth.
