Looking a little closer at the Minnesota Twins, we find that they are only 6 1/2 back with 43 game to play. The Twins are 5 games under .500 but 25 of their remaining games are played against losing teams.
If they can finish off this road trip with a split with Texas and grab 2/3 at KC, I think the Twins might be contenders.

The Giants are looking pretty good of late too.
