Angels vs Twins Prediction 

Minnesota wasn’t able to complete the series sweep over the White Sox on Thursday, but they still picked up a much needed series win and will look to keep the momentum here. The Twins are 6-6 at home this year, while the Angels are 7-8 on the road. Los Angeles hasn’t played their best over the last two series and they will have Hendricks on the mound, who I don’t trust at all. On the other side, Minnesota is starting Lopez, who has been dominant in three starts this year. Take the Twins -1.5 in this contest.
