Minnesota is a big park and Houston goes with fine young arm in Luis Garcia (2.75 ERA) with 68 Ks in 59 innings. Batters are hitting just .189 off him. The Astros are on a 7-3 run UNDER the total, plus 16-7-1 UNDER versus the AL Central. Minnesota has a good arm going, as well, in Jose Berrios (3.58 ERA). And the Twins are 16-6 UNDER the total against teams that are outscoring their opponents by one or more runs per game. Take Houston/Minnesota UNDER the total.
 
Minnesota will look to Jose Berrios to bounce back from Friday's loss to the Astros and he is 6-2 with a 3.58 ERA in 12 starts this season. The Twins are trying to climb out of last place in the AL Central and Houston has lost five straight against teams with .400 or worse winning percentages. Luis Garcia has given up 10 runs on 15 hits in 24 2/3 innings on the road. The Twins have won Berrios' last five starts, including a 5-4 victory over Kansas City last Saturday. Berrios has a .228 overall opponent batting average and he has allowed only eight earned runs in 26 2/3 innings in night games this season. Take the Twins.
