Daniel Mengden is 5-1 with a 4.21 ERA this season and 3-0 with a 4.35 ERA on the road. Michael Pineda is 6-5 with a 4.38 ERA this season. The Athletics are 8-2 in their last 10 games while the Twins are 4-6. This should be closer to a toss-up, take the value in the As.

My model says the A's win this game almost 60 percent of the time, so you're getting great value here with Oakland at plus money. The A's rallied for a dramatic win on Saturday night for their 24th win in 32 games, and on Sunday they start Daniel Mengden, who has won four straight starts. Oakland just has the magic rolling right now, and it's best to keep riding it. Take the A's.

The Twins close out a home series Sunday against the Oakland A's. Oakland will look to build upon their post All-Star success and lean on Daniel Mengden, who has been terrific, with a 5-1 record. But on July 2 he surrendered five runs and a season-high two home runs against the Twins. Expect Minnesota to hammer Mengden again and get to the A's bullpen in the latter innings.
