I'm playing on MINNESOTA. If the Twins ever want to think about getting their season on track, this would be a good series to take advantage of. The Rangers have dropped three straight and are just 25-43 overall. For tonight's opener, the Twins have a significant advantage on the mound. I backed Minnesota the last time that Berrios was on the mound. That was a fairly tough matchup as he was against Garcia and the Astros. Here's an excerpt of what I said: "To his credit, Garcia has been pitching well. That said, the Astros are still just 2-3 when he starts on the road and he's up against one of the most consistent starters in baseball. Berrios is 6-2 with a 3.58 ERA on the season. The Twins are 8-4 when he's on the mound. Note that four of those games, including each of the past two, were decided by a single run. Also, note that he allowed four earned runs or less in all 12 of those starts. In fact, since last season, he's allowed four or fewer earned runs in 23 straight ... " Sure enough, Berrios went out and allowed two runs in seven innings, recording eight K's. Minnesota won 5-2. That's 24 straight starts with four earned runs or less allowed. He should get decent support tonight, as Foltynewicz is 0-3 with a 9.45 ERA his last three. The Rangers lost 11-6 and 12-1 the last two times he was on the mound. Twins roll.
