Tonight's pitching matchup is intriguing, with both arms in good form recently. Minnesota Twins righty Taj Bradley owns a 3.29 FIP over the last month while allowing just 1.06 HR/9 with limited walks.
However, Bradley's road struggles have me siding with San Francisco. His FIP sits north of 4.00 away from Target Field, while Anthony Molina's numbers are too solid to ignore.
The San Francisco Giants' starter owns a 1.83 FIP over his last two appearances without allowing a home run. Molina also carries a 2.96 FIP at home.
A few rough outings have inflated his ERA, but the underlying numbers point toward another solid showing. Minnesota's offense has also been struggling lately.
COVERS INTEL: The Twins have posted a 78 wRC+ over the last week, substantially worse than their season average of 102. This is a favorable matchup for Molina. 
Twins vs Giants Over/Under pick: Over 7.5 (51%)
Play up to 55%.
The bullpens give this Over most of its appeal. Minnesota's relief corps has posted an xERA north of four during the past week, while San Francisco's bullpen has been even worse, carrying a 6.73 FIP with 2.45 HR/9 allowed during the same span.
Neither starter is completely unhittable either, so there are multiple paths to early and late scoring.
With the total sitting at just 7.5, this game doesn’t need to turn into a shootout. If either bullpen continues its recent struggles, eight runs is very reachable.
Twins vs Giants home run prediction: Drew Gilbert (10%)
Play up to 20%.
At 10%, Drew Gilbert is certainly a long shot, but there's legitimate reason to believe he can go deep tonight. The outfielder has homered twice in his last five games while carrying a .500 ISO and .833 SLG throughout the last week.
Gilbert's fly-ball rate hasn't been excellent, but his 60% hard-hit rate and 20% barrel rate during that span really stand out. Bradley has also surrendered 1.36 HR/9 on the road this season.
Minnesota's bullpen has been allowing long balls during the last month as well, giving Gilbert another favorable path once Bradley exits.
- ML/RL picks: 75-81, -15.47 units

Twins vs Giants weather
Weather conditions should be cool and dry at Oracle Park tonight. Temperatures will sit in the low 60s around first pitch before dipping toward 60 degrees later in the evening, with essentially no rain risk. Winds are expected to be around 10 mph blowing out toward center field, which could provide a slight boost to hitters on balls hit in the air.
