The division figures to—once again—play host to one of the best pennant races in all of baseball with the aforementioned Twins and Tigers vying with the Chicago White Sox for the right to represent the Central in the postseason.

Each of the three teams, however, has their weaknesses as we enter the season’s final two months.

All three attempted to shore up some of those issues at the MLB Trade Deadline last Friday.

The Twins imported Gold Glove shortstop Orlando Cabrera from the Oakland Athletics to improve the middle infield on both sides of the ball.

The Tigers brought in veteran southpaw Jarrod Washburn from the Seattle Mariners to bolster an already-imposing rotation that includes Justin Verlander and Edwin Jackson.

The White Sox made arguably the biggest splash at the deadline by acquiring former San Diego Padres’ ace Jake Peavy for a collection of highly-talented young pitchers.
