Trends

Minnesota is 4-1 in their last 5 games and 7-3 in their last 10 road games. The under is 5-1-1 in Minnesota’s last 7 games. New York is 7-2 in their last 9 Sunday games and 61-28 in their last 89 home games. The under is 4-1 in New York’s last 5 home games. Minnesota is 13-39 in these two teams last 52 head to head meetings.

Pick

Both of these teams have had success to start the season, but the Twins will be the team going for the series win in this game. Minnesota hasn’t hit the ball particularly well, but they have had some very good pitching to start the year. The Twins will start Pablo Lopez, who has allowed three earned runs in 20 innings pitched this year. The Yankees will turn to Gerrit Cole, who has been very good in his first three starts. I like the under in this matchup.
