Do the Twins have any playoff shot now? This weekend is the last stand

The Twins lost two of three in Detroit this week and stayed 4.5 games back in the AL wild-card race with now 16 games to go. There's still a narrow path to the playoffs, but this team sure doesn't look ready to walk down it. The Athletic's Dan Hayes and Zack Pierce, along with longtime MLB pitcher Tyler Duffey, talk about that and more. Topics include:— At least one of us 4.3 percenters is starting to crack— Twins "running on fumes" in the dog days of summer — Their playoff hopes are really over now ... right? — Searching hard for a way they can still make it — Royce Lewis' ongoing slump is a big factor — Joe Ryan looked better in his first start back from IL — Kody Clemens is having a great summer — Andrew Morris with a solid bounce-back Tuesday Have questions about the Twins?
