Why Bet on Minnesota Twins
Joe Ryan was the Twins‘ probable #1 choice once Michael Pineda became a free agent.
When the lockout concluded, the Twins executed a “blockbuster” transaction in obtaining Sonny Gray and Francis Peguero in exchange for Chase Petty, Minnesota’s first-round selection in 2021.
The Twins have a good offense that will score runs, but their pitching staff is below average.
Gray and Bundy are the Twins’ starting lineup’s life and soul (which is worrisome), and their bullpen’s lack of competent pitchers will hold them back.
Why Bet on Tampa Bay Rays
The Tampa Bay Rays were eliminated in the ALDS by the Cinderella tale Boston Red Sox, revealing the team’s dire need for pitching depth.
They leaned on their bullpen arms, such as Collin McHugh, Shane McClanahan, and Drew Rasmussen, to get through the first 3 innings or so, leaving them susceptible in the latter innings owing to their bullpen’s exhaustion.
Final Betting Analysis: Twins vs. Rays – MLB Preseason
Our pick for this match is placed on the Tampa Bay Rays.
The Rays are a gritty group that usually manages to find a way to win 80 matches, so if they strengthen their starting pitching, they may be a danger to win the AL East.
For now, we have to see what they are bringing in the preseason.
