Twins at Giants picks and predictions

Prediction

Twins 6, Giants 3

Moneyline

The TWINS (+120) have won 6 consecutive series and are 8-1 in their last 9 series finales.

The key for them is 3 runs allowed. They are 11-2 in their last 13 games allowing 3 or fewer runs.

The Giants are 9-1 in their last 10 games when allowing 3 or fewer runs. Heading into Snell’s last start — a 4-3 win vs. Toronto Tuesday — San Francisco had allowed 4 or more runs in all of the 2-time Cy Young Award winner’s outings this season.

BET TWINS (+120).

Run line/Against the spread

The Twins are 26-24 ATS on the road and 12-10 ATS as road underdogs.

The Giants are 21-28 ATS at home and 13-20 ATS as home favorites.

But -175 odds are not good enough to bet the Twins to cover, especially when you can get plus odds on the moneyline.

PASS.

Over/Under

Six of Snell’s 7 starts this season have had more than 7 total runs.

Six of Paddack’s last 7 outings have had 8 or more total runs.

Ten of the Giants’ last 12 losses have had at least 8 total runs.

BET OVER 7.5 (-115).
