The Twins travel to Sacramento to play the Athletics for the first time this season after the Twins have won six of the last seven meetings. The Twins have a major edge because they have Joe Ryan pitching, and he's been on fire in his last five starts, allowing only three runs combined. The Twins come off two tough losses at Seattle, losing by one run in each, to bring out the importance of this game and avoid a three-game losing streak. The A’s have lost 17 of their last 18 games. Twins get the win.

The A's are providing some big targets the past few weeks. With losses in a numbing 17 of 18, you can go against the A's again, while with the pitching (especially the bullpen) in shambles, overs are on a 10-2 run in A's games. At some point, the arson squad masquerading as the bullpen gets involved, and all it took was the 8th inning for the Blue Jays on Sunday to score 6 runs on A's relievers and blow open a close contest. None of the four games in Toronto landed beneath 12 runs, and considering Sacramento has been a launching pad this season, even Twins starter Joe Ryan (1.90 ERA last five starts) is unlikely to exit unscathed. Play Twins-A's Over.
