New York Yankees vs Minnesota Twins Prediction
The Twins look like a team that’s run out of gas, and losses like last night don’t help. Bradley hasn’t been good since coming over from Tampa Bay, as he’s allowed 22 hits and 15 runs in his last 21.1 innings. Bradley hasn’t produced a win for a team since July 18. The Yankees are making a playoff push, and Gil has allowed 3 hits and 1 run in his last 12 innings. Gil has allowed 2 or fewer runs in his last 7 starts. I want little to do with the Twins right now. Give me the Yankees.
