Athletics +108
These are teams trending in opposite directions. The Athletics are 6-3 in their last 9 games and the Minnesota Twins are ice cold with a 3-7 record in their last 10 games and them being favored tonight is enough for me to bet against them tonight. The Twins are also 0-5 in Bailey Ober’s last five starts and he has struggled to the tune of a 6.83 ERA during that span. The Athletics lineup is their strength and they have scored 5+ runs in five of their last six games entering tonight. They should be able to do some damage tonight against Ober and a Twins bullpen that lost a lot of their best relief arms since the trade deadline including Jhoan Duran, Griffin Jax and Louis Varland who are no longer with the team. J.T. Ginn starts this game for the A’s and he has been noticeably better on the road with a 3.29 ERA this season away from home and will be supported by a lineup in better form right now than Minnesota’s. The underdog price on the Athletics is worth a wager tonight.
