Minnesota Twins vs Texas Rangers Prediction & Picks - MLB

The Twins were thrashed by the Rangers in their Game 1 series at Target Field in Minneapolis. The Twins had started as -125 favorites for that game, but it was a great offensive day for Texas, with Smith going 2-for-6 and Langford as well. No Rangers player hit into a double play that day, and they allowed 17 hits, two of which were home runs.

However, the opposite occurred in Game 2, where betting sites correctly judged the odds, setting the Twins at -150. This time, Minnesota managed to win thanks to a three-run home run by their star player, Buxton, a triple by Willi Castro, and an RBI double by Carlos Correa, the 13th of the season for the Puerto Rican, who rejoined the team after having been in and out of day-to-day status in June.

The Twins want to win this series in their quest to catch up with the Tigers. The Twins lost their home series against the Royals before playing the Rangers, and the Twins manager didn't hesitate to bring in his best relief pitcher, Duran, to seal the victory for his team on Wednesday.
