Athletics vs Twins Prediction

I’m backing the Twins here. It would be nice to know who the Athletics are starting in this one, but at this point, at the rate that the Athletics continue to lose games, I’m not sure if it matters much. The Athletics just continue to find new and creative ways to lose games and despite a talented and young roster, they don’t seem to be showing any signs of changing that anytime soon. Give me Minnesota in this one.
