The Yankees are coming into this game with a 39-15 record overall and they are 16-8 in their road games this season where they will be in this game. They are coming into this game on a 6 game winning streak. They just won their 3-game series against the Detroit Tigers 3-0 completing the sweep, had Monday off as a rest day, and they are playing the series opener of a 3-game series with the Twins on Tuesday. This will be the 1st game of the series on Tuesday. Jordan Montgomery was the starting pitcher for them on Sunday while Jameson Taillon will be on the mound for them here on Tuesday. He is 6-1 with a 2.30 ERA this season. His team won 8 of their last 9 games this season with him starting. In his last start, he allowed 1 ER, 0 HRs, and 0 BB with 5 Ks on 2 hits in 8 IP against the Los Angeles Angels. They scored 21 runs in their last series averaging 7 runs scored per game in that span and they allowed 4 runs against them averaging just over 1 run allowed per game.

 

The Twins are coming into this game with a 32-24 record overall and they are 17-11 in their home games this season where they will be in this game. They have won 2 of their last 3 games and are coming into this game off of a win in their last game. They just won their 3-game series against the Toronto Blue Jays 2-1, had Monday off as a rest day, and they are playing the series opener of a 3-game series with the Yankees on Tuesday. This will be the 1st game of the series on Tuesday. Devin Smeltzer was the starting pitcher for them on Sunday while there is no probable pitcher yet on the mound for them here on Tuesday. They scored 20 runs in their last series averaging just under 7 runs scored per game in that span and they allowed 21 runs against them averaging 7 runs allowed per game.

 

The Yankees are coming into this game on a winning streak and they also have the best record in the MLB right now. They have been unstoppable this season, rarely losing games and even when they do the games are very close. Their pitching has been much better in recent weeks but their bats have also been very hot and they have been scoring many runs in their games. They have Taillon pitching in this game as well and he currently leads the pitching staff in wins this season as his team is finding success with him in games. They are going up against a Twins team that just won their last series against the Blue Jays but they have had a very bad history with the Yankees over the years and their pitching staff is so banged up they do not even know who is starting in this game yet. Even their lineup is thin with some key pieces missing and going up against this Yankees team with the way they have been playing recently, the Twins will not be able to stop them here. The best bet here is on the Yankees to win this game on the runline.
