Darrel Rasner goes for New York making his first start. He's opposed by Matt Garza who has a full four games under his belt. Garza has been pitching well posting a 2.41 ERA over his last three starts. The Twins perform well against he mighty AL East. They won last night pushing their record to 34-20 vs. the division over the past two seasons. I like their momentum after holding NY to just one run last night. This season, Minnesota is 50-28 following a win and 31-13 after allowing 2 runs or less. They are 43-21 over the past two seasons following a win by 4+ runs. The Twinkies are 14-5 this season vs. the league's elite (teams at 54%+). I think they have the starting pitching advantage and bullpen advantage here and they have shown they don't back down against good teams. I'll take that at +135.
