Our Houston Astros vs Minnesota Twins Prediction

The Astros are the small favorite in this game; however, the over looks to be the best betting option. This is because of the home/away splits between the two starting pitchers. Bradley has made nine starts on the road this season and has allowed 22 earned runs over 46.0 innings. Imai, on the other hand, has made five home starts this season, having allowed 17 earned runs over 23.2 innings.

Add in the fact that the Twins’ offense ranks 5th in the league in terms of runs per game, while the Astros’ offense ranks 11th in the same category, and our Houston Astros vs Minnesota Twins prediction is: Over 8.5 Total Runs.
