New York Yankees vs Minnesota Twins Preview
Date, time (UK time)
Yeah, baby, oh, behave! I wish I could share my best psychedelic Austin Powers impression with you because it’s nice to start a new week like we ended the last. I hope you cashed in on my NCAA football bets that I blasted out in the American football news feed! Oh, I have posted 3 offers over the first two opening weekends of the new college football campaign, and I will give you one guess how many of them have lost?
Look and get back to me after you read today’s MLB best bet on a total that I am about to hand out for Monday night. (Oh, there are none to find, so good luck finding any losses from this guy around here to start the NCAAF season).
Let’s get back to the diamond because we will start our week on the front foot and slam home a winner on Monday. The Yankees are headed home after a lengthy road trip, and one thing we didn’t see was an offensive display in Tampa Bay this weekend to finish the road trip.
The only runs scored by the Yankees over the last two days in Tampa Bay came from the foot of Aaron Judge. The favorite to win the AL MVP is now up to 53 home runs for the campaign, and he is chasing Roger Maris’ 61 mark to tie the Yankees regular season record. Being a Yankee fan, it has been tough lately because I have zero faith that Aaron Boone can run a taco stand, much less help us win another title in the Boogie Down.
If I am being honest, when the Yankees re-signed Boone to a new contract in the off-season, I was throwing things around my house because I was so mad. I broke five lamps and two televisions, and we needed six windows replaced before I could calm down. Okay yes, I am storytelling now, but I do not like him at all, and I still think he’ll find a way to help us fall apart in the post-season again.
Anyway, Jeff Nelson was talking with Jack after the win over Tampa Bay on the Yes post-game. He pointed out one little fact that I wasn’t just letting go unnoticed.
Chris Archer (2 – 7; 4.52 ERA) is pitching for the Twins tonight at Yankee Stadium, and that poor dude hates this place more than you hated being forced to take piano lessons when you just wanted to play football! I know, right?
Archer spent plenty of time in a Rays uniform having to face this team a few times each season until he started moving around as much as he has lately. Archer spent his first 7 years in Tampa before bouncing around from Pittsburgh, back to Tampa, and now to the Twins over the last 5 years. Of course, Archer was not in baseball during the 2020 campaign, but here is the big issue at hand.
Here is what I know we will get from Chris Archer tonight in the Bronx. After 74 pitches, Archer is going to come out of the game, if he makes it that far, with 4 earned runs allowed through 4⅓ innings pitched. How do I know this? Well, I do freelance work for NASA and I am a rocket scientist on the weekends!
Yeah, no, I just have to look at Archers’ entire body of work this year and this is all he gives us every night, any night, in any park, he pitches in Boston lit him up for 4 runs the last time he took the bump, and I get the one concern we need to express. The Yankee offense hasn’t scored more than 2 runs in 6 of their last 8 games! I know! We call that fugly stuff, and the one fix you can give any struggling offense is an evening with Chris Archer in Yankee Stadium.
The inclement weather should hold up, although we are expecting rain most of the day here in the city. That should boost our humidity up, and I have spoken of how that can help a ball move through the air with a little more ease.
The question here is will the Yankees have 3 runs before we get to the 6th inning? Well, the line is 2.06 and I vote yes toward the New York Yankee Over 2.5 Runs through 5 innings of action.
Jameson Taillon (12 – 4; 3.97 ERA) will get the start for the Yankees, and he has been bailed out by the Yankee bats as you can see by some of his results. As you go over his season package, there have been plenty of occasions he has been seen giving up 5+ runs and the offense has turned what looked like a loss into a no-decision instead.
This Over 8 is more playable than you can shake a bat at, so think about touching that action if you know what I mean!
New York Yankees vs Minnesota Twins Best Bet
The Yankee offense is playing like absolute rubbish outside of what #99 is doing right now. Noted! With Benintendi down, that also takes our only .300-hitter out of the lineup. That means we will need a blast from the Judge to continue his chase of Maris’ record, and we’ll need one or two more mistakes from Chris Archer to pay us our money.
- Selection: New York Yankees Over 2.5 Runs 1st 5 Innings
- Best odds: 2.06 (Pinnacle)
- Stakes: 4/10
Odds as of 10:00 am September 5, 2022. Odds may now differ.
