Day 1:
Minnesota scored only 1 run in 11 innings against Oakland starters in the first two games of this series but stil won both games thanks to 7 runs scored in 5.2 innings against Oakland pen. The Twins offense is getting a break here as they face Ross who is 1-5 in last 6 starts with ERA of 7.36. Liriano is getting his 2nd chance today and I expect him to deliver with a nice game. I am going with Minnesota moneyline -119 here.
Seattle exploded yesterday scoring 10 runs and they should score enough here today to keep it close against Texas with Holland on the mound who is 2-3 in last 6 starts allowing 5 or more earned runs in 3 of those 6 starts. Seattle and Texas split last 8 games but Texas won all of their 4 games by 2 runs or less and Seattle outscored them 31-22 in last 7 head-to-head meetins. I am taking Seattle +2.5 -155 on the alternative runline.
Just for fun, I am playing these two in a parlay for a solid payout as my 3rd game today. So, my 3 plays for today, to start this crazy selective system are:
Minnesota
Seattle +2.5
Parlay: Minnesota & Seattle +2.5
