August 14 MLB Best Bet: Minnesota Twins vs LA Angels
(MLB) Minnesota vs. LA Angels,
Money Line: -134.00 Minnesota (Away)
Result: Loss
The Angels have been getting too much respect from oddsmakers all season and rank dead last when it comes to sports bettor profits in home games amongst all MLB teams.
The Twins led 3-0 heading into the bottom of the 8th on Saturday, only to lose 5-3. I fully expect Minnesota to answer the call and bounce back here. Minnesota is involved in the most competitive battle for first place in the AL Central, as they trail Cleveland by 1.5 games and are just one game up on the White Sox. Minnesota is also 5-2 in their last seven games following a loss.
The Angels are 3-11 in their last 14 games after a win and will be starting Tucker Davison who is 1-4 with a 5.93 ERA in 10 career games. Davidson has also allowed at least five earned runs in three of his five outings this season.
