Josh Bell o0.5 Total Home Runs (+520)
Josh Bell leads the Twins with 12 RBI and is tied for the team lead with three home runs.
He'll have plenty of good looks today vs. a banged-up Blue Jays pitching staff. Max Scherzer has given up one homer in each of his two starts, while the bullpen has allowed 10 dingers and 70 hits.

o7.5 (-107)
The Tampa Bay Rays rank ninth in the majors in scoring, putting up 4.6 runs per game, but they will be running into a buzz saw in Schlittler, so I anticipate that number coming in low.
Rasmussen has allowed just two earned runs in two starts, but Tampa's bullpen has cratered after he’s finished his five innings, allowing 15 more runs in relief, and losing both games he’s started.
NYY (-147)
Cam Schlittler has been dynamite on the road, going 2-0 without surrendering a run over 11 2/3 innings. He’s only surrendered three hits against 15 strikeouts, and opponents are batting just .079 against him.
In one start at Tropicana Field last year, Schlittler gave up just a hit over 6 2/3 scoreless innings and fanned eight in a game the Yankees eventually won in extra innings.

Matt Olson o0.5 Total Home Runs (+320)
Matt Olson has gone yard in four of his last nine games, and I like his matchup against the Cleveland Guardians’ pitching staff tonight.
The Guardians have given up 19 home runs in just 15 games this season – the third-most in the majors – with 10 of those coming against the bullpen.
