THURSDAY SLUGFEST
(MLB) Minnesota vs. Chi White Sox,
Point Spread: -1.50 | -110.00 Minnesota (Away)
Result: Win
The Twins head south to Chicago in what at the beginning of the year could have been a deciding series to the season, but not so much now. The Twins have won seven of their last 13 games. The White Sox have lost nine of their last 12. The twins will send Kenta Maeda to the mound. He is 4-7 this season with a 4.65 ERA. He has posted a 3.42 ERA on the road this season and a 3.53 ERA at night. The Twins are 8-10 this year when Maeda starts but just 3-7 on the road. The Chicago White Sox are just trying to avoid a hundred losses. Chicago has lost four of their last five games and nine of their last 12 games. The Sox will go with Jose Urena on the mound. He is 0-5 this season with an 8.46 ERA in six starts this season. The Twins offense is putting up 6 runs a game in September. There isn't much to like about Chicago and even though Maeda doesn't instill a lot of confidence you have to like him in this match-up. Lay the run-line.

Play on Minnesota minus 1.5 runs. This is a 3% play.
