They have struggled immensely over the last 2 weeks, going 3-11 over their last 14 games. Minnesota&#8217;s defense has been the main cause for concern, allowing 6 or more runs in 5 of its last 7 games.<\/p>\n<p>The Tigers destroyed the A&#8217;s Thursday, winning 8-0 after closing as just -150 favorites. They won 2 of 3 in that series. Detroit might be leading the AL Central, but it is just 6-6 over its last 12.
