Jorge Polanco's return to Target Field isn't the only thing the Twins should be concerned about in a four-game series.
The Minnesota Twins are riding a 12-game winning streak into Sunday's series finale with the Boston Red Sox, but to keep their success going, they'll likely have to contend with the heart of the Seattle Mariners ' pitching staff next week.
Seattle's starting rotation comes into this week's series with the fourth-lowest average allowed , third-lowest earned-run average and lowest WHIP in the majors entering Sunday's action, and each matchup has a difficult task for the Twins.Castillo is a three-time All-Star and has enjoyed a strong start to the season with a 3-4 record and 3.46 ERA. Castillo is also posting a 4.7% walk rate and a 28.7% strikeout rate this season, but his 32.
This could be a spot where the Twins can take advantage of as Hancock has had trouble limiting hard contact. Hancock has allowed a 47.9% hard hit rate this season, although his average exit velocity has dropped from 89.2 mph to 87.8 mph this season. Kirby doesn't walk batters with a 2.6% walk rate , but he also doesn't allow hard contact with a 30% hard-hit rate and 87.5 mph exit velocity .
