   What to know about the Indians-Twins game:
   The Indians will give the ball to right-hander Carlos Carrasco, who posted a 2.59 ERA over four starts and a one-inning relief appearance in July. He'll be making his fourth start of the season against the Twins -- in his first start of the season against Minnesota back in April, he tossed seven scoreless innings, giving up three hits, walking one and striking out seven. But he's been hit hard in the other two starts, for a combined 10 runs over five innings (18.00 ERA).

It was in his last start against the Twins that he had to leave the game in the second inning with a right elbow contusion after being hit by a Joe Mauer line drive.
Today's game could also mark the Indians debut of outfielder Leonys Martin, who was acquired just prior to Tuesday's non-waiver Trade Deadline. 

Adalberto Mejia is slated to take the mound for Minnesota. The 25-year-old left-hander slots in former Twins right-hander Lance Lynn's spot in the rotation, before Lynn was traded to the Yankees. In three Major League appearances (two starts) this season, Mejia has a 3.65 ERA (five earned runs in 12 1/3 innings). In 14 appearances (11 starts) at Triple-A Rochester, he had a 3.32 ERA. He's faced Cleveland three times in his career, all last season, giving up four runs in 13 1/3 innings (2.70 ERA), walking 11 and striking out 15.
