MINNEAPOLIS -- The Detroit Tigers havent played their best baseball during the last two weeks but finally have a chance to get back on track when they open a three-game series against the last-place Minnesota Twins on Tuesday night at Target Field.The Tigers, 4-6 in their last 10 games and clinging to viability in the American League Central standings, have played a grueling schedule since the month began, including series against postseason contenders Seattle and Kansas City as well as division leaders Texas and Boston.Minnesota is neither, and since going 15-11 in July, the Twins have stumbled to a 9-11 start in August, including a four-game series sweep last weekend at the hands of the surging Royals.It was the first time since 1999 that the Royals took all four games of a series with the Twins and the first since 1975 in Kansas City.Im very frustrated, Twins manager Paul Molitor said, according to MLB.com. To (go to Kansas City) and have to endure (those) four games. Some of these situations and environment where guys need to step up, our mental toughness needs to improve.Hopefully, we do that as we get more experience from our younger core.

Not to put any pressure on himself, but hes that type of talent. Were going to need him to do things like that, that hes capable of doing. And its something to watch when he does. When he gets them, he gets them.Tuesdays opener features right-handers Anibal Sanchez for the Tigers against Kyle Gibson for the Twins.Sanchez took a no-hitter into the seventh inning his last time out against the Royals but ended up with a no-decision, striking out eight and walking two while surrendering one hit in seven innings. He had a quality start against Minnesota on July 19, allowing three runs and striking out 10 in six innings but took the loss.Gibson is coming off a complete game against the Atlanta Braves on Wednesday when he allowed three runs and eight hits and fanned six. He has struggled in eight career starts against Detroit, posting a 3-4 record with a 5.04 ERA. ' ' '
