- Analysis
- The upcoming Monday night contest between the Minnesota Twins and Oakland Athletics at Sutter Health Park indicates a strong possibility for limited scoring during the first half of the game. Joe Ryan begins his start for Minnesota with a career performance of 5-2 along with a 2.57 ERA. In his most recent six games Ryan has shown dominance with a 1.50 ERA while limiting batters to a .183 average. He maintains his effectiveness throughout the initial five innings by consistently keeping batters off balance at the start of games.
Oakland's Luis Severino faces off with a 1-4 record and a solid 3.89 ERA. During his most recent appearance, Severino gave up only one earned run through six innings while facing the Astros. Although his past encounters with the Twins showed difficulties he now shows signs of establishing a consistent performance pattern .
The two teams often begin games with minimal scoring output. During their recent ten games the Twins scored an average of 3.3 runs per game while the Athletics have shown offensive inconsistency. Based on recent trends and the nature of this pitching matchup betting on the under for the first five innings stands out as my choice.
