But an off day by Kenta Maeda and a Griffin Jax meltdown proved too costly for the Twins, who dropped their eighth against Detroit for the year.

Should hot-hitting Ryan Jeffers get an opportunity at first base?

The Tigers take an early lead, the Twins fail to amount any offense whatsoever, and all hope seems lost. Enter Matt Wallner, a 111 mph grand slam in the bottom of the sixth inning, and a re-write to the season narrative.

Where does everyone fit, and how much can they play?

Here is why I think that is the right decision.

With Derek Falvey needing substantial help for the starting rotation, adding a veteran like Gray was a must. It couldn&#x2019;t have gone better, and now he&#x2019;s positioned for a Cy Young award.
