AFTERNOON DESTRUCTION (47-35 MLB YTD!)
(MLB) Minnesota vs. Detroit,
Money Line: -158.00 Minnesota (Away)
Result: Loss
8* TWINS (DESTRUCTION)

Often I'll break down a matchup completely, looking at various stats and trends. Other times though I feel a "simpler" approach is the best way to look at a contest. And that's the case here. This is a major starting pitching mismatch and I'm not expecting any upsets this afternoon. In fact, the Twins should/could be much bigger favs in this spot. Dylan Bundy (3-2, 4.54 ERA) gets the call for the visitors, while Beau Brieske (0-4, 5.04), gets the nod for the home side. Both teams are dealing with injury issues. That makes the men on the mound that much more important this afternoon. Look for Bundy to deliver in this favorable spot; the play is Minnesota!
