BETTING TRENDS
Minnesota are 3-6 SU in their last 9 games.
Minnesota are 1-4 SU in their last 5 games against Detroit.
The total has gone UNDER in 4 of Detroit's last 6 games against Minnesota.
Detroit are 8-2 SU in their last 10 games at home.
Prediction
The Twins struggled again and could't do anything vs Skubal pitching. They haven't scored a single run in the last 2 games and it's hard to trust them at this point. The Tigers have won 4 of their last 5 games and also the last 2 series as they already secured this one. With the Twins struggling offensively the best thing to do is to stay with the Tigers.
