T.M. Selection: Minnesota Twins.

I like the Minnesota Twins to win this game against the Baltimore Orioles on Monday. The Twins have looked great in their games lately winning 2 in a row and they have won 9/10 of their previous 10 games. They have been hot lately and their offense looked great since they have been scoring a ton of runs in their games too. They just scored 18 runs in their 2 most recent games and they only gave up 4 runs total between the 2 games. Not only have they been hitting the ball really well, but their pitching has been great and I think they can continue on their run here against the Orioles who are supposed to be 1 of the worst teams in the league this year. The Orioles haven't been terrible lately and they even won their series over the Red Sox on the weekend but I think they have been overachieving and I expect them to start regressing back to the mean in their games. Chris Paddack (0-2, 3.68 ERA) is up for the Twins here and he hasn't been terrible to start the year, giving up no more than 3 runs in any of his 3 starts and he has been improving in each start too, giving up less and less runs in each of his starts. I think he is going to pitch another good game here and I expect the Orioles to have trouble getting hits on him. Tyler Wells (0-2, 5.54 ERA) is up for the Orioles here and he hasn't looked great in his starts this year. He has given up 2+ runs in 3/4 of his starts this year and he has only made it past the 5th inning in 1 game this year. I think he's not going to last long in this game with how well the Twins have been hitting the ball lately. I like the Twins to win this game.

T.M. Prediction: 5-2 Twins.
