This is an 8* ASSASSIN on the Minnesota Twins.

The Twins are rolling and I think that momentum gets carried over here; note that Minnesota is batting .297, while scoring 5.8 runs per game over its last 17 at Target Field. Kyle Gibson gets the call for the home side, he's 4-2 with a 1.85 ERA over his last nine starts overall and has been even better when throwing in Minnesota this season, going 3-1 with a 1.44 ERA so far in 2015. Most recently Gibson gave up one earned run over 5 2/3's innings in a 3-2 win against Toronto on Saturday. Milwaukee is coming off a 7-4 loss at St. Louis on Wednesday and hands the ball to Kyle Lohse (3-6, 6.50 ERA) who gave up seven runs off a season-high 11 hits over 3 1/3's innings in Saturday's 7-3 home loss to Arizona, leaving the confirmed "gas-can" with the league's second-highest ERA among qualifying starters. I'm giving Gibson the big nod on the mound, the Twins the big nod at the plate and in my professional opinion, this is the very definition of "great line value;" play on MINNESOTA.
