Minnesota at Oakland

The Texas Rangers and the Los Angeles Angels got all the buzz before the season started. But this Oakland team and their 6.5 game lead in the AL West is on the verge of winning the West for the second straight year. They start Daniel Straily who has been decent with a 4.11 ERA and 5-4 record at home. The problem is of course run support with the A's averaging just 4.1 runs per game at home this season. That's not much different than the 3.9 Minnesota gets on the road. The Twins are 21-19 this season on the road vs. AL teams that average under 4.8 runs per game. And, as a big underdog, the Twins have excelled this season. Theya re 23-28 (+13.5 units) as a big dog of +150 or more. Take a shot on Minnesota here.
