Our Minnesota Twins vs Houston Astros Prediction
The Twins are the clear favorite in this game; however, they still look to be the best betting option. This goes back to the home/away splits between the starting pitchers. In four away starts this season, Burrows has allowed 12 earned runs across 24.1 innings.
As for Ryan, he has made five home starts, having allowed eight runs (six earned) over 23.1 innings. On top of the advantage the Twins have in starting pitching, they are also ranked 8th in runs scored, compared to the Astros, who rank 11th.
Because of this and the lack of consistency shown by Houston this season, our Minnesota Twins vs Houston Astros prediction is: Minnesota Twins ML.All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
