Chicago at Minnesota

Chicago stole a win yesterday to open this series, though they're on a 7-12 slide overall. The Cubs have lost six of their last eight on the road and are 4-10 versus a righty starter. 25-year-old Hayden Wesneski (3.93 ERA) gets the call with the Cubs losing three of his last four starts. Minnesota plays the fifth game of a six-game homestand winning eight of the last 12 at home. The pitching staff is fourth in the majors in ERA (3.36) and starter Joe Ryan (2.45 ERA) has been great with a 47-to-6 strikeout-to-walk ratio in 44 innings holding batters to a .191 average. With the Twins 63-41 after a loss by 4 or more runs, back the home team that is in bounce-back mode. Play Minnesota.
