SAN DIEGO (Cortes) -135 over MINNESOTA (Matthews)
Nestor Cortes has looked sharp in four starts for
the Padres (+$190, 3.00 ERA) and he'll be available
at a reasonable price in tonight's series opener at
Target Field. The Twins check in with a pitiful 8-18
record vs. left-handers (-$1320), averaging just 3.2
runs per game in those contests. They have dropped
7 of their last 10 (-$395) and starter Zebby Matthew
comes in with a bloated 5.30 ERA win his 11 outings
so far. San Diego has turned a profit vs. righthanders
in 2025 (+$1085) so look for them to draw first blood
in this three game set.
