Gibson&#x2019;s best season by most statistical accolades was the 2015 campaign. In his age-27 season, Gibson posted a 3.84 ERA and a 1.28 WHIP. Minnesota was a surprise second-place finisher in the AL Central that season and Gibson played a large role in the club&#x2019;s improvement.

The Twins jumped out to a 3-0 lead in the top of the first, but Lynn did his best to make things interesting in the bottom of the inning. The White Sox scored a run on four hits, but with the bases loaded, Daniel Palka grounded into a double play.

It was home run derby early on at Guaranteed Rate Field (yuck), as the Twins slugged four home runs in the first three innings. Logan Morrison joined Escobar and Dozier in the tater parade.

The more level-headed segments of Twins Territory have been preaching that things will get better once we start playing our lowly divisional opponents. Well, things aren&#x2019;t off to a great start.

Minnesota's original signing of Phil Hughes seemed like a very &#x201C;Twins-like&#x201D; move. Over his last three seasons in New York, he started 75 games and posted a 4.82 ERA with a 1.37 WHIP. His 68 home runs could be attributed to pitching with the short porch in the Bronx.
