Free Minnesota Twins vs. Oakland Athletics MLB Prediction:
In the last 4 games between these teams the Over record is 3-0-1 and, but with the pitching match up I don’t see a high scoring game so the Under is the pick.
4* Free MLB Betting Pick: UNDER the Number
Smith will not get his first win in this game and while he won’t be bad he will give up a few runs. Like his last 2 starts he will not get much support and the Twins will win a low scoring game.
