It’s time to continue our MLB odds <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/betting" rel="noopener">series</a> with a Twins-Blue Jays prediction, pick, and how to watch.</p><p>The Twins enter the game after being swept by the Tampa Bay Rays. They have now lost five straight games, but still sit in first place in the AL Central with a 31-32 record on the year. Meanwhile, the Blue Jays just won four of five over the Astros and have won nine of their last 11 games overall. They are in fourth place in their division sitting at 36-28. The inequity between the divisions shows up heavily in this game. The Twins are in first, with a record that would tie them for last in the AL East.</p><p><b><i>Here are the Twins-Blue Jays <a href="https://sportsbook.fanduel.com/navigation/mlb" rel="noopener">MLB odds</a>, </i></b><b><i>courtesy of FanDuel.</i></b><b><i> </i></b></p><h2><b>MLB Odds: Twins-Blue Jays Odds</b></h2><p>Minnesota Twins: +1.5 (-194)</p><p>Toronto Blue Jays: -1.5 (+160)</p><p>Over: 8.5 (-118)</p><p>Under: 8.5 (-104)</p><h2><b>How To Watch Twins vs. Blue Jays</b></h2><p>TV: BSNO/SNET</p><p>Stream: MLB.TV</p><p>Time: 7:07 PM ET/ 4:07 PMPT</p><p><i><b>*Watch MLB games LIVE with fuboTV <a href="https://www.fubo.tv/lp/mlb/?irad=377812&amp;irmp=492408" rel="noopener sponsored">(click for a free trial)*</a></b></i></p><h2><b>Why The Twins Could Cover The Spread</b></h2><p>The Twins’ offense has not been amazing this year. While they are 18th in runs scored this year, they are 26th in batting average and 22nd in on-base percentage.  They showed their offensive ineptitude after the five-game losing streak. In this time, they have scored just six runs, and been shut out once. While the pitching has had some bright spots, they have not scored over two in a game, while not giving up less than two. The RBI leader on the team is Trevor Larnach with 27 RBIs on the season. That is tied for 87th in the league, and Larnach is hitting just .203 this year. After missing time at the end of May into June, Larnach rejoined the lineup for the Rays series. He went o-8 in the series with two walks.</p><p>No one is hitting particularly well for the Twins in the last week. The one exception may be Michael A. Taylor. Taylor is hitting .333 since the start of the month, with two home runs and two RBIs. He has also stolen four bases but struck out four times. One of those stolen bases resulted in the Twins manager, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/twins-news-rocco-baldelli-max-kepler-baserunning-blunder" rel="noopener">Rocco Baldelli calling out Max Kepler</a>. Kepler failed to take second base when Taylor stole third.</p><p>The Twins start Sonny Gray in this one. He is coming off his first loss of the year. Gray gave up three runs in 6.2 innings of work, but since the Twins only scored two runs, he took the loss. He has not recorded a win since April 30th. In April, he had a .77 ERA. That went up in May to 3.55, but he only gave up over two runs once. Still, his teams lost four of the five starts as he took five no-decisions.</p><h2><b>Why The Blue Jays Could Cover The Spread</b></h2><p>The Blue Jays put out the better offense in this matchup. They are fourth in the majors in batting average, while sitting fourth in on-base percentage. The Blue Jays are tenth in the majors in runs scored, primarily because they have struggled to hit with runners in scoring position. This year, Toronto sits 22nd in the majors in batting average with runners in scoring position.</p><p>Bo Bichette is continuing his monster season for the Jays. He is the team leader in batting average, home runs, and RBIs. Bichette is fourth in the majors with a .326 average, while he is top 15 in home runs and RBIs with 14 and 42 respectively. He has cooled off just slightly since the calendar moved to June. He is hitting just .273 this month with ten strikeouts. Still, he has launched three home runs and driven in four. Dalton Varsho is also picking up. He was hitting just .213 heading into the month. In June, he is hitting .292 with three home runs and four RBIs, while scoring seven times. He has hits in all but two games and a run in all but one.</p><p>The Blue Jays will start Yusei Kikuchi today. Kikuchi has a 6-2 record on the season with a 4.40 ERA. His word as of late has not been great. He has given up at least one home run in each of his last five starts, including three multi-home run games. He has not also pitched past the fifth in any of those starts. Still, Kikuchi is getting run support, which is getting him wins. If he gets that again today, he should hold the Twins’ offense down enough to get the win.</p><h2><b>Final Twins-Blue Jays Prediction &amp; Pick</b></h2><p>This is an interesting match-up. Sonny Gray is the better pitcher by far. Even if his record does not show it, all his advanced metrics do. Further Kikuchi has not looked great as of late and could be tagged for a few runs. The issue is will the Twins capitalize? The Twins’ offense has been awful as of late and shows little signs of improving. This should end up being a tight game due to all that, so with that, take the runs in this one.</p><p><b>Final Twins-Blue Jays Prediction &amp; Pick: Twins +1.5 (-194) </b></p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Baldelli <a href="https://twitter.com/DanHayesMLB/status/1666834606249635841" rel="noopener">addressed a baserunning error</a> from Max Kepler in the Twins’ walk-off loss to the Tampa Bay Rays.</p><p>Kepler did not take second base when his teammate Michael Taylor stole third in the top of the ninth. <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/twins-news-minnesota-activates-royce-lewis-max-kepler-injured-list" rel="noopener">Royce Lewis roped a single</a> into left field that scored Taylor and likely would have scored Kepler had he taken second base. The Twins ended up losing the game 2-1.</p><p>“Max should have been on second base. This is a baseball play and they weren’t holding him. They were actually just giving him second base. That’s more being on the ball than probably anything else,” Baldelli said.</p><p>Kepler has been a <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/twins-three-players-fans-are-already-fed-up-with-in-2023" rel="noopener">big part of the Twins</a> for the last seven years. The 2023 season has not gone his way as he’s hitting .192 in 37 games. The Twins are fighting for a playoff spot and need more production from Kepler. Mistakes like the one he made on Wednesday will not help his long-term cause with the Twins.</p><p>The Twins hold a 2.5 game lead over the Cleveland Guardians in the AL Central, sitting at 31-31 with 100 games left to go. Max Kepler hasn’t been the player that the Twins wanted him to be but still play him in hopes that he returns to being the player he as a few seaons ago when he hit 36 home runs. Perhaps that season was an outlier, but surely Kepler has more to offer than what he’s given this season.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

This game will continue our MLB odds <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/betting" rel="noopener">series</a> as we give out a Twins-Rays prediction and pick while letting you know how to watch, as well.</p><p>The Twins this series have not been swinging the bats well. They have just one total run scored in the two games. Minnesota is 7-60 in the series with no hitter having more than one hit. Royce Lewis has the team’s only RBI of the two games played while Carlos Correa and Michael A. Taylor have doubles. On the mound, Pablo Lopez recorded a quality start for Minnesota. The Twins’ bullpen has given up one run in three innings of work and struck out four. Minnesota has their work cut out for them on Thursday afternoon.</p><p>Tampa Bay is obviously pitching the ball extremely well. Jason Adam is the pitcher that gave up the lone run allowed. The Rays have a 0.72 WHIP in the two games played as they have allowed just seven hits and walked six. At the plate, Tampa Bay is not really hitting all that well, but it is enough to get the job done. The are batting .220 as a team this series with six extra base hits. Randy Arozarena, Luke Raley, Jose Siri, and Isaac Paredes have each hit a home run. Arozarena leads the team with three hits while Raley and Wander Franco each have two.</p><p>Bailey Ober will be the starting pitcher for the Twins, but the Rays have yet to name a starter.</p><p><b><i>Here are the Twins-Rays <a href="https://sportsbook.fanduel.com/navigation/mlb" rel="noopener">MLB odds</a>, </i></b><b><i>courtesy of FanDuel.</i></b><b><i> </i></b></p><h2><b>MLB Odds: Twins-Rays Odds</b></h2><p>Minnesota Twins: +1.5 (-205)</p><p>Tampa Bay Rays: -1.5 (+168)</p><p>Over: 7.5 (-118)</p><p>Under: 7.5 (-104)</p><h2><b>How To Watch Twins vs. Rays</b></h2><p>TV: Bally Sports North, Bally Sports Sun</p><p>Stream: MLB TV Subscription</p><p>Time: 1:10 PM ET/10:10 AM PT</p><p><i><b>*Watch MLB games LIVE with fuboTV <a href="https://www.fubo.tv/lp/mlb/?irad=377812&amp;irmp=492408" rel="noopener sponsored">(click for a free trial)*</a></b></i></p><h2><b>Why The Twins Could Cover The Spread</b></h2><p>Minnesota needs Ober to have a huge game if they want to keep this one close. Through eight starts, Ober has been very good. He has a 2.33 ERA, 0.97 WHIP, and an oBA of just .205. He needs to be at the top of his game if the Twins want to end their losing streak. Ober has allowed less than three runs in six of his eight starts and has not allowed more than six hits in any of his starts. Tampa Bay has not been hitting the ball well lately, so Ober should be able to keep the Twins close.</p><h2><b>Why The Rays Could Cover The Spread</b></h2><p>The Rays have not named their starter yet, but that should not matter. They have one of the best pitching staffs in the MLB right now. Tampa Bay has the third lowest ERA, second lowest oBA, second lowest WHIP, and fifth fewest hits allowed. The Rays have been getting it done on the mound all season, no matter who it is pitching the ball. Minnesota is an awful team at the plate. They are batting below .230 as a team and have struck out 28 more times than the next closes team. Minnesota averages 10.22 strikeouts per game at the plate. The Rays just need to pitch as they have been all season, and they will complete this sweep.</p><h2><b>Final Twins-Rays Prediction &amp; Pick</b></h2><p>The Rays are just way to good at home. Expect Tampa Bay to pick up the win and cover the spread.</p><p><b>Final Twins-Rays Prediction &amp; Pick: Rays -1.5 (+168), Over 7.5 (-118)</b></p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

They are only two games over .500, but they sit in first place in the AL Central division heading into their matchup with the Rays. In the last week of games, Donovan Solano leads the Twins offense with seven hits. However, some of their more important players have been struggling. Royce Lewis, Jorge Polanco, and Max Kepler are a combined 9-58 in that same span. On the mound, the Twins are one of the better teams in baseball. They have a team 3.42 ERA and 1.17 WHIP. Their .225 oBA along with their WHIP is the lowest in the MLB. Minnesota’s starting rotation has put together 30 quality starts, which is second best in baseball.</p><p>The Rays are coming off a weekend series win against the Boston Red Sox. However, they have been struggling as of late at the plate. In the last six games, Tampa Bay is hitting .228 as a team. Yandy Diaz has seven hits in that span, but two of their better hitters are in slumps. Isaac Paredes, and Brandon Lowe are a combined 4-34 while Taylor Walls is 0-15 in the last six games. On the mound, Tampa Bay is solid. They have a team 3.66 ERA and Shane McClanahan is making his case to be AL Cy Young.</p><p>Louie Varland and Zach Eflin will be the starting pitchers in this game.</p><p><b><i>Here are the Twins-Rays <a href="https://sportsbook.fanduel.com/navigation/mlb" rel="noopener">MLB odds</a>, </i></b><b><i>courtesy of FanDuel.</i></b><b><i> </i></b></p><h2><b>MLB Odds: Twins-Rays Odds</b></h2><p>Minnesota Twins: +1.5 (-137)</p><p>Tampa Bay Rays: -1.5 (+114)</p><p>Over: 7.5 (-122)</p><p>Under: 7.5 (+100)</p><h2><b>How To Watch Twins vs. Rays</b></h2><p>TV: Bally Sports North, Bally Sports Sun</p><p>Stream: MLB TV Subscription</p><p>Time: 6:40 PM ET/3:40 PM PT</p><p><i><b>*Watch MLB games LIVE with fuboTV <a href="https://www.fubo.tv/lp/mlb/?irad=377812&amp;irmp=492408" rel="noopener sponsored">(click for a free trial)*</a></b></i></p><h2><b>Why The Twins Could Cover The Spread</b></h2><p>Varland has been solid for the Twins this season. He has a 3.51 ERA and 1.15 WHIP through seven starts. In those starts, Varland has gone at least six innings in five of them. He is capable of going deeper into games and the Twins need him to do just that in this game. Varland is coming off a solid start against the Houston Astros his last time out, and they are not a bad offense. Varland shut them down for seven innings in that game. If he can have a repeat performance on the road in this game, the Twins will cover the spread.</p><h2><b>Why The Rays Could Cover The Spread</b></h2><p>Eflin is having a good start to his first season with Tampa Bay. He is 7-1 with a 3.30 ERA and WHIP right at 1.00. In 60 innings pitched, Eflin has only walked eight batters. Tampa Bay has won nine of his 10 starts this season. What makes Eflin so good is his ability to miss barrels. He ranks above average in average exit velocity, xBA, and chase rate. Eflin does a good job at keeping hitters off balance and forcing them to chase out of the zone when the time is right. He is taking on a Twins team that is not very good offensively in this game. If Eflin can keep pitching well, the Rays will cover this spread at home.</p><h2><b>Final Twins-Rays Prediction &amp; Pick</b></h2><p>Tampa Bay is the best home team in the league. The Twins are not great on the road this season, as well. Expect Eflin and the Rays to win a close one in this game.</p><p><b>Final Twins-Rays Prediction &amp; Pick: Rays -1.5 (+114), Over 7.5 (-122)</b></p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Cleveland has four other players with four hits in the three games played this weekend. Brennan and Steven Kwan have gone yard for the Guardians while Brennan also leads the team with four RBI.

On the mound, the Guardians have given up 10 earned runs in the three games. After giving up seven in game one, Cleveland allowed just one and two runs in the last two games.</p><p>Donovan Solano has been awesome for the Twins in this series. He has five hits in three games with two doubles, and two RBI. Royce Lewis and Jorge Polanco have homered in the series. However, Polanco and Lewis are a combined 5-25 at the plate, so they have not been helping the team besides the home runs. On the mound, the Twins have given up 10 earned runs. They have been throwing the ball pretty well, including a shutout in game two of this series.

It will be interesting to see how long he is allowed to go, or if he will be on a pitch count Sunday afternoon. No matter what, there is no denying the season he had in 2022. McKenzie finished with an ERA below 3.00, the fifth best WHIP in the MLB, and 190 strikeouts. In his career, Opponents hit just .196 off McKenzie. This season, the Twins are struggling at the plate and they lead the league in whiff rate. Minnesota is in the bottom-10 of the MLB in batting average and they have struck out the most by a large margin. If McKenzie can return to his 2022 form, the Guardians will cover this spread.</p><h2><b>Why The Twins Could Cover The Spread</b></h2><p>Joe Ryan gives the Twins a chance to win anytime he takes the mound. He has allowed opponents to hit just .212 on the season. Ryan is in the 83rd percentile in xBA, 87th percentile in xSLG, 92nd percentile in barrel percentage, and 98th percentile in chase rate. Ryan does not allow a lot of hits to begin with, but when he does, those hits are rarely for extra bases.</p><p>As mentioned, Ryan ranks extremely well in chase rate. He throws a lot of pitches that start on the plate and finish off the plate. Many hitters struggle to lay off his pitches out of the zone or in the dirt. The Guardians are one of those teams. They have the second highest chase percentage in the league. Ryan should have a lot of success in getting the Guardians to chase pitches out of the zone. If he does, the Twins will cover the spread.</p><h2><b>Final Guardians-Twins Prediction &amp; Pick</b></h2><p>It is Mckenzie’s first outing back.

As a result, the team has decided to put him on the 10-day injured list.</p><p>According to reports, Gallo has been <a href="https://www.espn.com.sg/mlb/story/_/id/37789468/twins-joey-gallo-put-injured-list-hamstring-strain" rel="noopener">dealing with a strained hamstring</a> for some time now. He sustained the injury back in May 14, though he tried to play through it until it became unbearable. He has struggled ever since suffering from the health setback, hitting just .154 all while accumulating 28 strikeouts in 52 at-bats, per ESPN. He has also made just three home runs during that span.</p><p>Prior to the Twins’ decision, Gallo was on the roster against the Cleveland Guardians on Friday. However, he was surprisingly scratched off before the start of the contest and replaced by Willi Castro.</p><p>In a related move, the Twins have recalled Kyle Garlick from Triple-A St. Paul to fill in for Gallo on the roster.</p><p>It remains to be seen if <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/twins-news-minnesota-joey-gallo-serious-injury-removal" rel="noopener">Joey Gallo will be available</a> to rejoin the Twins once he’s time on the injured list is over. However, as everyone knows, recovering from a hamstring issue can be tricky and shouldn’t be rushed. With that said, Minnesota fans should definitely manage their expectations and only hope for the best when it comes to Gallo’s recovery.</p><p>Of course the 29-year-old’s absence is quite the hit for Minnesota. After all, despite batting .188, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/twins-news-joey-gallo-reflects-on-struggles-with-dodgers-amid-2023-resurgence" rel="noopener">Gallo leads the team</a> in home runs with 11 and OPS at .799. He has also made 23 RBIs in 46 games this campaign, numbers which are hard to replicate for anyone.</p><p>Here’s to hoping that Gallo returns sooner rather than later, though!</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Our MLB odds <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/betting" rel="noopener">series has our</a> Guardians Twins prediction and pick. Find out how to watch Guardians Twins.</p><p>The Cleveland Guardians are in real trouble, and this is a weekend in which they need to reduce the amount of trouble they are dealing with. The Guardians are behind the first-place Minnesota Twins in the American League Central Division. That is the foremost reason Cleveland needs to win this game and, at the very least, needs to avoid being swept after losing on Friday night in the first game of this weekend series. However, it’s about more than just being behind Minnesota; the Guardians are several games under .500. They simply have to win games before they think about catching anyone. The Guardians have had one of the worst offenses in Major League Baseball. They have been held to two runs or fewer in a large percentage of their games, Friday’s 1-0 loss being yet another example. A team-wide power outage has remained in evidence for two whole months. It’s a disastrous start to the season for a team which made so much with its resources last season, overtaking the underachieving Twins and White Sox to win the Central and move to the playoffs. This year, the Guardians and White Sox are clearly underachieving more than the Twins. Minnesota has not had a great season by any means — the Twins are just above .500 — but compared to Cleveland, Minnesota is doing really well. We will see if this dynamic changes anytime soon.</p><p>The Minnesota Twins have Terry Francona’s team on the ropes; let’s see if Minnesota can deliver a knockout blow, or at least create a standing eight count.</p><p><b><i>Here are the Guardians-Twins <a href="https://sportsbook.fanduel.com/navigation/mlb" rel="noopener">MLB odds</a>, </i></b><b><i>courtesy of FanDuel.</i></b><b><i> </i></b></p><h2><b>MLB Odds: Guardians-Twins Odds</b></h2><p>Cleveland Guardians: +1.5 (-172)</p><p>Minnesota Twins: -1.5 (+142)</p><p>Over: 7.5 (+100)</p><p>Under: 7.5 (-122)</p><h2><b>How To Watch Guardians vs. Twins</b></h2><p>TV: Fox</p><p>Stream: Fox Sports App</p><p>Time: 7:15 p.m. ET/4:15 p.m. PT</p><p><i><b>*Watch Guardians-Twins LIVE on fuboTV <a href="https://www.fubo.tv/lp/mlb/?irad=377812&amp;irmp=492408" rel="noopener sponsored">(click for a free trial)*</a></b></i></p><h2><b>Why The Guardians Could Cover The Spread</b></h2><p>The Guardians are playing terrible offense, and sure, that is a reason to pick against them. However, in a one-game situation — one day after Cleveland got shut out by the Twins — it only stands to reason that due to the laws of averages, Cleveland is bound to play a lot better on offense. The Guardians will get some clutch hits. They will come through with runners in scoring position. It’s really hard for a team to continue to be as bad as the Guardians have been every game. They’re bound to play better.</p><p>Cleveland sends promising young pitcher Logan Allen to the mound in this game. He should be able to hold down the Twins and make sure that even if Cleveland scores only three, Minnesota will score only two.</p><h2><b>Why The Twins Could Cover The Spread</b></h2><p>The Guardians are simply a disaster at the plate. You can look through the scores of every Guardian game this season and see for yourself how many times Cleveland has scored two runs or fewer. Hint: more than 20 games with under 60 games played this season. Nearly every other game, the Guardians get shut down.</p><p>Minnesota, meanwhile, sends Sonny Gray, one of its best pitchers, to the mound in this contest. Gray versus Cleveland is a recipe for a Minnesota win.</p><h2><b>Final Guardians-Twins Prediction &amp; Pick</b></h2><p>The Guardians aren’t good, but are they going to remain this bad the whole season? It’s a hard question to answer, which is why you’re better off passing on this game. Wait for a live-betting angle, perhaps.</p><p><b>Final Guardians-Twins Prediction &amp; Pick: Guardians +1.5 </b></p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Join us for our MLB odds <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/betting" rel="noopener">series</a> where our Guardians-Twins prediction and pick will be revealed.</p><p>In game one, it was the Guardians that fell on the short end of the stick in a 7-6 loss in Minneapolis on Thursday. Although they did get the job done on offense, it was the pitching that failed to be sharp enough to win the game. Overall, Cleveland has fallen to 25-31 but only sits 4.5 games behind the Twins for first place despite being 5-6 in their previous 11 games overall. Getting the starting nod will be Aaron Civale who is 1-1 with a 2.84 ERA in his two starts on the season.</p><p>On the other side of things, the Minnesota Twins improved their overall record to three games north of .500 at 30-27 as they won their fourth game in the past six previous outings. Clearly, the Twins are hoping that this is the start of a winning stretch especially against a critical divisional opponent in the Guardians. Alas, the Twins will send out starter RHP Bailey Ober who is 3-2 with. 2.68 in his seven overall starts during the regular season.</p><p><b><i>Here are the Guardians-Twins <a href="https://sportsbook.fanduel.com/navigation/mlb" rel="noopener">MLB odds</a>, </i></b><b><i>courtesy of FanDuel.</i></b><b><i> </i></b></p><h2><b>MLB Odds: Guardians-Twins Odds</b></h2><p>Cleveland Guardians: +1.5 (-178)</p><p>Minnesota Twins: -1.5 (+146)</p><p>Over: 8 (-110)</p><p>Under: 8 (-110)</p><h2><b>How To Watch Guardians vs. Twins</b></h2><p>TV: MLB.TV</p><p>Stream: MLB.TV</p><p>Time: 8:10 ET/5:10 PT</p><p><i><b>*Watch MLB games LIVE with fuboTV <a href="https://www.fubo.tv/lp/mlb/?irad=377812&amp;irmp=492408" rel="noopener sponsored">(click for a free trial)*</a></b></i></p><h2><b>Why The Guardians Could Cover The Spread</b></h2><p>In order to get back at the Twins and cover the spread, the Guardians need to make sure that they get a much better effort from their bullpen. Believe it or not, it was Cleveland that surrendered a total of four runs in the final pair of innings in Thursday’s ballgame including a three-spot in the eighth. Without a doubt, the Guardians even held a 5-4 lead heading into the second-to-last inning before things imploded in a big way. Clearly, manager Terry Francona will most likely make different decisions in regard to who he chooses to close out games from within the bullpen to get the job done.</p><p>Most importantly, the golden ticket to covering the spread for Cleveland will be to continue being patent in their at-bats on offense which will eventually lead to reaching base and inflicting damage upon the Minnesota pitching staff. As a whole, Cleveland has seen their offensive statistics scuffle mightily this season as they rank among one of the worst squads in all of Major League Baseball in batting average, total runs scored, and slugging percentage. Because of their struggles, be on the lookout for Cleveland to heavily rely on their best hitter in Jose Ramirez to carry the load as the 30-year-old third-baseman has recorded five hits in his previous three games.</p><h2><b>Why The Twins Could Cover The Spread</b></h2><p>At first glance, the AL Central division appears to be one of the weakest divisions in all of baseball, but the Minnesota Twins could truly care less about that. Even with a slightly above-average record at 30-27, the Twins are on top of the division and have all of the confidence in the world to take care of business against their rivals for the second consecutive day.</p><p>Of course, there was no doubt that the return of third-baseman Royce Lewis’ return to the starting lineup was a sight for the sore eyes of Minnesota. After tearing his ACL a year ago, the former number-one overall pick in 2017 was the biggest difference maker in game one of this series when he absolutely clobbered a two-run, game-tying home run in the eighth inning to put the Twins up for good. Even more impressive, it was only three days ago when Lewis went yard against the Astros with a three-run moonshot in a 7-5 win over the defending champion Astros. Simply put, this young man looks like he is the real deal and is clearly in the zone at the plate. Do not be surprised if he is once again the main reason that the Twins cover the spread.</p><p>In addition, it also helps Minnesota’s case that starting pitcher Bailey Ober has been as dominant as can be whenever he suits up for play against Cleveland. In fact, throughout his four career starts against the Guardians, Ober has piled up a 1-1 record to go along with a flashy 1.64 ERA. Clearly, riding the arm of Bailey Ober could be just enough to improve upon their 29-28 record against the spread.</p><h2><b>Final Guardians-Twins Prediction &amp; Pick</b></h2><p>Surely, there is plenty of bad blood between these two teams over the years, but it would be wiser to count on the Twins to come out on top, especially in front of their home fans.</p><p><b>Final Guardians-Twins Prediction &amp; Pick: Twins -1.5 (+146)</b></p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Not a great one, mind you (they seem destined to win 92 games before crapping out in the playoffs to the Yankees for the 100th time), but a very good one all the same. And in the pillow fight that is the AL Central, good is good enough. That is to say that, at 29-27, they might not be winning but they’re definitely Twinning, positioning themselves a playoff lock but without posing any real danger to make the World Series.</p><p>Still, this is a talented team—perhaps the Twins’ most talented roster in many seasons—stocked with high level talent such as Byron Buxton and Carlos Correa. Even as the Twins float atop the division, there’s the sense that they should be better. As such, here are the three Twins who haven’t quite lived up to expectations so far this season.</p><h2><b>Carlos Correa</b></h2><p>If it were up to Correa, he wouldn’t even be in Minnesota. In the offseason, Correa agreed to a 13 year, $350 million contract with the San Francisco Giants, only to have it scuttled by concerns over about Correa’s surgically reconstructed knee. Then, he agreed to a 12 year, $315 million deal with the New York Mets, but that fell through as well. Without any other real options, Correa struck an eight year, $280 million deal to stay with the Twins, who were the consolation prize to his original consolation prize.</p><p>Since reupping with the Twins, Correa has <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/id-boo-myself-twins-star-carlos-correas-brutally-honest-response-fans-frustrations-amid-2023-struggles" rel="noopener">stunk</a>. Despite being a highly pedigreed star in the middle of his putative prime, Correa has been one of the least effective starting shortstops in Major League Baseball. Through 48 games, he’s hit a concerning .211 with only six home runs and 24 runs batted in and produced a .682 OPS (89 OPS+). Already, he’s ground into nine double plays, the most in the American League, giving him the ignominious distinction of being one of the few players to get doubled up more often than they go deep.</p><p>While this can probably just be chalked up as a prolonged slump for an otherwise excellent player, it’s still concerning from the highest paid player in Twins history. Whereas a team like the Yankees or Dodgers has the financial bandwidth to withstand an underperforming top earner, the Twins are banking on Correa to play like a star because they don’t have other options on their roster.</p><h2><b>Byron Buxton</b></h2><p>Buxton is a special case: he could be the best player in baseball, yet his body seems physically incapable of playing baseball for any prolonged stretch. In an attempt to keep Buxton healthy for as long as possible, the Twins have taken the game’s most breathtaking athlete and turned him into a three-true outcome brute. At his best, Buxton was an elite defender and baserunner, one of the true five tool players in the game, a power-hitting, base-stealing, Gold Glove winner in center field. In 2021 and 2022, Buxton played just 153 combined games, but produced 8.6 WAR over that span, which is the equivalent an MVP-caliber season, albeit spread out across two years.</p><p>This year, the Twins have tried to preserve Buxton by bumping him from center field, slotting him in as their permanent designated hitter. If sustained greatness isn’t possible, they’ve decided to settle for more dependable goodness. Although Buxton has been reasonably productive at the plate (10 home runs, 23 runs batted in, 113 OPS+), this is just a sliver of the player he could be and has previously been; he’s the baseball equivalent of a Michelin starred chef forced to only cook hot dogs and buttered noodles. To be sure, this constrained role is probably a necessity, but it’s a frustrating one all the same.</p><h2><b>Pablo Lopez</b></h2><p>In one of the offseason’s most interesting <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/twins-news-pablo-lopez-doctor-baseball" rel="noopener">moves</a>, the Twins sent reigning batting champ Luis Arraez to the Marlins in exchange for Pablo Lopez. The logic was simple: the Twins have a surplus of productive hitters, but have struggled for years to complement their strong lineup with an equally productive pitching rotation. As a Marlin, Lopez established himself as a potential hidden ace—with the right tweaks, it was easy to imagine Lopez leveling up to become an elite hurler. Although his stats were always merely good rather than outstanding, he threw five distinct pitches, all of which boasted elite vertical movement.</p><p>So far, the Twins, like the Marlins, have not yet figured out how to unlock the best version of Lopez. He’s been solid, good even, just as he has been for years. His 4.11 ERA is inoffensive, albeit a skosh below his usual standard; his underlying metrics are superb, yet haven’t translated into superb actual results. What makes the Lopez especially frustrating, though, is that Arraez has absolutely raked in Florida, posting a MLB-best .376 batting average and .432 on base percentage.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

However, they may finally be hitting their stride after winning back-to-back series against the Cardinals and Orioles. Considering how poor the Central division has been, the Guardians still sit firmly in the mix just 3.5 games back of the Twins. The Guardians’ biggest issues lie on the offensive end where they average the second-fewest runs per game. They continue to lack power (last in home run rate and isolated power) but their lack of base runners is the biggest difference from last year to this season. While a matchup with Minnesota’s second-ranked team ERA and WHIP won’t help their cause, the Guardians showed signs of life in their most recent series – scoring 22 runs in three games against the Orioles.</p><p>Top prospect Tanner Bibee (1-1) makes his seventh career big-league start for the Guardians tonight. The 24-year-old flamethrower has been as-advertised through six starts thanks to a 2.88 ERA and 1.08 WHIP. Aside from a rough start against the Tigers, Bibee has been just what the Cleveland doctors ordered. The righty carries a ton of positive momentum into tonight’s start given his last three outings. Since the aforementioned blow-up against Detroit, Bibee has gone at least six innings and hasn’t allowed more than two runs in any of his subsequent three starts. With Minnesota striking out at the highest rate in the majors, Bibee is in line for a strong outing again tonight.</p><p>Despite their offensive struggles, Cleveland’s corner infielders enter tonight red-hot. Over their last six games, Jose Ramirez holds a .345 average while Josh Naylor is batting .450 with a team-leading 15 total bases. Naylor is coming off a monster performance in yesterday’s win over the Orioles where he finished 4/5 with a home run, two doubles, and six RBI.</p><h2><b>Why The Twins Could Cover The Spread</b></h2><p><i><b>Last 10: 4-6 (First in the AL Central)</b></i></p><p><i><b>Run Line Record: 29-27 (52%)</b></i></p><p><i><b>Over Record: 24-29-3 (45%)</b></i></p><p>Minnesota fell off after a strong April that saw them go 16-12. Despite a 12-15 record in May, the Twins maintain a slim lead in the division. Their underlying numbers remain solid despite the lack of recent wins as they hold the fourth-highest run differential in the American League. The Twins feature one of the best rotations in baseball that ranks second in both ERA and WHIP. Although their offense fell off slightly in May, they still average the 14th-most runs per game, walk at the fifth-highest rate, and homer at the eighth-highest rate. That said, Minnesota struggled to generate any sort of offense in their earlier bout with the Guardians – scoring just five runs in three games. Consequently, they’ll need their offense to regain its early-season form if they want to cover as 1.5-run favorites tonight.</p><p>Righty Pablo Lopez (3-3) makes his 12th start of the season for the Twins tonight. The 27-year-old parlayed a stellar final season in Miami into a $73.5 million dollar contract with Minnesota this offseason but the results have been mixed thus far. He started the season strong with four starts allowing fewer than three runs but since has given up at least four runs in four of his last seven outings. However, Lopez still holds a solid expected ERA of 3.53, and his 1.13 WHIP is an improvement from last year. Coupled with a career-high 11.1 K/9, Lopez could enjoy a strong outing tonight if he can cut down on the walks.</p><p>Despite recent struggles from Byron Buxton and Carlos Correa, the Twins still pose a threat to put up runs thanks to their outfield production. Both Willi Castro and Alex Kirilloff have been red-hot over the last week. Both mid-20-year-olds are hitting over .410 over the last week – with Castro pacing the squad with 14 total bases. Kirilloff, in particular, could be in line for a big night considering he owns a .328 average against righties.</p><h2><b>Final Guardians-Twins Prediction &amp; Pick</b></h2><p>Tonight has all the makings of a Tanner Bibee gem considering his nasty stuff and Minnesota’s abysmal strikeout rate. Ride the recently-surging Cleveland offense against a struggling Pablo Lopez.</p><p><b>Final Guardians-Twins Prediction &amp; Pick: Cleveland Guardians +1.5 (-170)</b></p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Our MLB odds <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/betting" rel="noopener">series has our </a> Twins Astros prediction and pick. Find out how to watch Twins Astros.</p><p>The Minnesota Twins and Houston Astros have split the first two games of this series. The Astros, after a slow start in April, have produced an excellent month of May in which they have risen to second place in the American League West and established a solid (though imperfect) position in the American League postseason picture. The Astros hovered near .500 for the first several weeks of the season. Now they’re 10 games over .500. They haven’t overtaken the first-place Texas Rangers in their division, but if they keep playing the way they did in May, they’ll be fine. They will return to their familiar perch atop the West, likely heading for home-field advantage in the American League Division Series. Jose Altuve is back in the lineup, a big reason Houston is back on track. The team has suffered some pitching injuries, however. It needs the back end of the rotation to continue to deliver solid starts. Hunter Brown gets the call in this game, as the Astros try to solidify their position even more.</p><p><b><i>Here are the Twins-Astros <a href="https://sportsbook.fanduel.com/navigation/mlb" rel="noopener">MLB odds</a>, </i></b><b><i>courtesy of FanDuel.</i></b><b><i> </i></b></p><h2><b>MLB Odds: Twins-Astros Odds</b></h2><p>Minnesota Twins: +1.5 (-138)</p><p>Houston Astros: -1.5 (+115)</p><p>Over: 8 (-114)</p><p>Under: 8 (-106)</p><h2><b>How To Watch Twins vs. Astros</b></h2><p>TV: Bally Sports North (Twins) / AT&amp;T SportsNet Houston (Astros) / MLB Extra Innings</p><p>Stream: MLB.tv</p><p>Time: 8:10 p.m. ET/5:10 p.m. PT</p><p><i><b>*Watch Twins-Astros LIVE on fuboTV <a href="https://www.fubo.tv/lp/mlb/?irad=377812&amp;irmp=492408" rel="noopener sponsored">(click for a free trial)*</a></b></i></p><h2><b>Why The Twins Could Cover The Spread</b></h2><p>Minnesota has battled Houston on even terms in the first two games of this series. Minnesota took an early lead in the first game on Monday. Houston took an early lead in the second game on Tuesday. Minnesota lost its early lead on Monday but rallied late to win. The Twins have shown some backbone, which they will need a lot more of this season. Hunter Brown is a good pitcher for Houston, but no one would put him in the same class with Cristian Javier or Framber Valdez. This is a pitcher Minnesota’s inconsistent offense can score against. It’s a real opportunity for the Twins to get a road win versus a quality opponent and fend off the second-place Detroit Tigers in the American League Central.</p><h2><b>Why The Astros Could Cover The Spread</b></h2><p>The Astros have been one of the best teams in baseball over the past three weeks. Houston had a very rough start to the season but has since kicked things into high gear, powered mostly by Yordan Alvarez but also fueled by the return of Altuve and a resourceful pitching staff which has adjusted well to the loss of starter Luis Garcia. When Houston did start slowly, there was no reason to panic, because this is and has been one of the most proven and reliable teams in baseball over the past six years.</p><p>Another reason to pick Houston is that the Twins are part of the American League Central, which certainly looks like the worst division in baseball. The Central has the Kansas City Royals and Chicago White Sox, two of the worst teams in baseball, plus the underachieving Cleveland Guardians and the anything-but-imposing Detroit Tigers. The Twins are exposed when they go outside their division. Houston can and should win this game.</p><h2><b>Final Twins-Astros Prediction &amp; Pick</b></h2><p>The pitching matchup feels volatile. Stay away from this game and look for a live-betting play.</p><p><b>Final Twins-Astros Prediction &amp; Pick: Astros -1.5</b></p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
