The Cubs won Game 1, but they'll face the ace on Saturday, with Twins' lefty Joe Ryan coming to the mound. Ryan has been terrific this season with a 2.45 era. He has allowed just 2 runs over 12 innings in May. His opponent Wesneski has really come around after a rough start, pitching into the 6th and allowing just a a single run in each of three starts. He can match Ryan with a very low 1.50 ERA in May.

The Twins have just moved into the cellar in OPS/ L7 days. The Cubs are again creeping up the ranks all the way to 6th in offense over the last week. The Cubs are also getting especially fine work from the relievers. Ryan and the Twins are moderately favored, but I am wagering on the relatively unknown Wesneski and the superior offense of the Cubs to steal this one on the road.
