New York’s Clay Holmes own a 2.89 road ERA thus far and takes on a Twins team that is only hitting .236 at home. Six of the last seven games for Minnesota has seen less than eight runs and Joe Ryan has a good track record this Mets lineup. Despite how powerful this New York could be, they’re off to a slower start offensively this season, hitting .215 as a team so far. Both starters are backed by two of the best bullpens in the league as well.

The Twins reminded us on Sunday that they won't lose every game, beating Casey Mize and the Tigers. We're still not convinced Minnesota should be a favorite here, however slight, as it stands only 5-11 into Monday. Granted, Monday starter Joe Ryan (2.65 ERA) has been the best rotation piece for Rocco Baldelli, but remember that only against the lowly Chisox have the Twins won back-to-back games this season. Meanwhile, the Mets just won their fourth straight series by taking down the A's 8-0 in Sacramento on Sunday, the third shutout spun by the staff across the last nine games. Clay Holmes likely won't have to work beyond five innings with the capable bullpen at the ready. Play Mets on Money Line.
