The Minnesota Twins have had a disappointing start to the 2025 season, currently sitting fourth in the AL Central with a 7-15 record following a series sweep by the Atlanta Braves. Their upcoming series against the struggling Chicago White Sox presents a critical opportunity for the Twins to rebound. The team's pitching and batting issues have contributed to their poor performance, and if they fail to capitalize on this chance, they may become early sellers at the trade deadline due to the talent on their roster.
If the Minnesota Twins don't find some wins against the White Sox this week, then parlay that into a better run of baseball, this team is on the fast track to being one of the first trade deadline sellers in the American League.
Those three losses over the weekend dropped the Twins down to fourth in the AL Central, behind only the lowly Chicago White Sox, who finished the 2024 season with the worst record (41-121) in Major League Baseball since the 1962 Mets.
Not only did the 2024 White Sox help their division rival Twins get back on track multiple times last season, but they've already helped steer the Twins' 2025 ship back in the right direction already once this year.
The Twins' biggest problem has probably been the batting lineup. That said, there is plenty of blame to go around.
