Twins vs Tigers prediction
The Twins and Tigers are capable offensively, and this is a pitching matchup made for offense. Bailey Ober has allowed 12 hits and 9 runs in 6.1 innings, while Jack Flaherty has given up 13 hits and 7 runs in 12 innings. In 50 at bats against current Tigers, Ober has allowed a .280 batting average and .773 OPS. I expect some fireworks on this fine Sunday afternoon. Reasonable total. Give me the over in this spot.
