The Tigers have lost four of their last five to fall to 2 games out of the Wild Card in the AL. Thankfully they get a Twins team that is a mess right now. Minnesota has dropped five of its last seven, with the two wins coming by just one run and at home. Santana is one of the Twins better pitchers, but the Tigers should be eager to jump on him. These games are must-win for Detroit, so feel safe betting on them.
