Kyle Gibson has won just one game this season. But that figure is misleading. Gibson has pitched well this year holding nine of his 12 opponents to three earned runs or fewer. The Twins are 14-6 in Gibson's last 20 games starts going back to last season. Minnesota has won in each of its last four games againt the Angels when Gibson has started.

The Angels are going with lefty Tyler Skaggs. They have lost in five of Skaggs' past seven starts. Minnesota is 12-4 the past 16 times going against a southpaw starter at home.

The Angels are deadling with multiple injuries with Shohei Ohtani, Adrelton Simmons, Kole Calhoun and Kaleb Cowart all out.
