Whereas I expect the Brewers to allow more runs over the season’s last ten weeks, I think the Twins’ best run prevention is ahead of them. They have more raw skill in their rotation, a longer track record of success, and pretty good internal depth options in Varland and David Festa. Combine that with a good offense that projects to get better with improved health, and not only do I expect the Twins to make the playoffs, I think they’ll catch the Guardians in August and win the AL Central with some cushion.
