Baltimore Orioles vs. Minnesota Twins Prediction

I’m on the Twins here. Charlie Morton has just been unbackable for the Orioles this season, and I don’t expect that to change until I see otherwise. The Twins have been a team that can run hot and cold, and I just think that the Orioles will continue to slide until they decide to make a change to better this rotation. The Twins look like they’re starting to right the ship, and at a reasonable price, I’ll back them here. Give me Minnesota.
