In this matchup I like the Minnesota Twins to win on the over. The Twins have been a better team all year and are facing someone with a 6.75 ERA. The Tigers are a great offensive team but struggle to not allow runs and that is why the over is a great bet here as well. The Tigers are 10th in total offense and the Twins will post a lot of runs. Final score prediction, Minnesota Twins will win with our best play on the over 6-4.
