Minnesota Twins vs Chicago White Sox Predictions and Best Bets

Miguel Vargas

Game Pick: Minnesota Twins vs Chicago White Sox Over 8 -119 Lucky Rebel

The pitching matchup features Minnesota's hard-throwing right-hander Taj Bradley, who brings a road ERA of 4.35 and a WHIP of 1.39 facing off against Chicago's  left-hander Anthony Kay, who holds a home ERA of 3.48 and a WHIP of 1.28. Chicago's bats enter this contest red-hot after launching three long balls in a 4-1 victory over the Twins in the series opener, led by power threats like Miguel Vargas and Colson Montgomery, who have both eclipsed the 30-home-run mark this season.
Backing the Over 8 total runs is strongly supported by the current environment at Rate Field, a venue that has proven highly friendly to Chicago's heavy hitters who excel at capitalizing on mistakes over the plate. It is expected to be a very humid night in Chicago and Rate Field is rated 6th best for runs, according to Ballpark Pal.

Player Prop: Miguel Vargas Over 1.5 Total Bases +132 Lucky Rebel

The White Sox third baseman is having a breakout season as he is hitting .250 with 30 home run and 77 runs batted in. Vargas has been swinging a blisteringly hot bat, demonstrating elite power metrics highlighted by a 14.3% barrel rate (91st percentile) that allows him to clear this line with a single swing of the bat. Miguel has cleared this mark in 3 of his last 4 games overall and 3 straight home games. He is riding a 7 game hit streak at Rate field and and matches up nicely against Bradley and his 42.9% fly ball rate. I won't be surprised if Vargas went yard, yet again, tonight.

Player Prop: Josh Bell Over 1.5 Total Bases +155 Lucky Rebel

The Twins designated hitter Josh Bell is having yet another fine season. Bell is hitting .258 with 18 home runs and 84 runs batted in. Josh is hitting .280 against left handed pitching and has cleared this mark in 3 of his last 4 games. He's also registered a hit in 8 of his last 9. He can clear this with one swing of the bat of he can do it with multiple hits. I like the value in this wager here tonight.
