Twins vs Blue Jays Prediction 

Toronto comes into this matchup looking for their fifth win in a row, and they have continued to play great baseball over the last two weeks. The Blue Jays are 13-16 on the road this year, while the Twins are 18-10 at home. Minnesota has dropped three games in a row, and they have allowed 25 runs in those three games. The Twins are starting Ryan, who has allowed one earned run or fewer in three of his last five starts. The Jays are going with Francis, who has allowed two earned runs or fewer in two of his last three, but did allow six earned runs last time out. I don’t love the idea of fading the Blue Jays right now, but the Twins should have the advantage here.
