Pick
Minnesota has struggled over the last week, but they are coming off of a win and will have Sonny Gray on the mound for this game. Gray has been dominant so far this season, allowing two earned runs over 22 innings pitched. The Yankees will start Jhony Brito, who has pitched well in three of his four starts, but did allow seven earned runs in less than an inning of work in his last start against Minnesota. I like the Twins in this game.
