Minnesota Twins @ Chicago White Sox
Bottom of the AL in runs scored, slugging, ribbies, average and homers; the Twins are hitting like my nan, and she died in 1974. The White Sox are only marginally better.
With two teams stinking this badly, it's worth looking at Unders, because both Danks and Blackburn have the right stuff on their day. The problem is that these pitchers have started slowly too, and it's possible one of them may get reached for a bagful of runs today.
After Liriano's no-no last night, the force must be with Minnesota, but hitting .229 isn't going to inspire any confidence. The Chisox will be hacking away to erase last night, but Blackburn has fared well against them in the past and I'll be looking for him to rebound from his last start (I've got some interesting stats on rebounding pitchers, which I won't bore my reader with, in case he looks in) so I'll hope all the bats remain cold (the weather is encouraging) and both teams struggle to score.
Pick: Under 8.5 @ 2.00
