New York at Minnesota

This is the fifth straight road game for the NY Yankees. Minnesota plays in a big park, which is tough on hitters, and New York is a bad offensive team at #23 in runs scored and on base percentage, and #25 in slugging. New York righty Michael Pineda (3-7, 5.88 ERA) is favored, but has struggled away from Yankee Stadium, logging a 1-4 record and 5.46 ERA to go with a .311 batting average against. The Yankees are 3-8 when Pineda faces a team with a losing record. New York is also 7-3 UNDER the total on the road against a right-handed starter. The Twins are no offensive dynamo, either, at #27 in runs scored, #24 in on base percentage, #24 in slugging, though Minnesota star Joe Mauer is hot, reaching base in 28 straight games. The Twins are 7-2 when righty Ricky Nolasco opposes a team with a losing record, so grab the home dog in a defensive duel. Take Minnesota and the UNDER.
