Houston Astros vs. Minnesota Twins

Saturday, July 06, 2024 – 02:10 PM ET at Target Field


Astros Pitching Profile

After enduring a miserable month of April that saw Hunter Brown (6-5, 4.07 ERA, 1.33 WHIP) end with a deplorable 11.84 ERA, he has exponentially improved his performances as evidenced by his 1.16 ERA in June over five starts and 31 innings of work.

His last outing on Monday saw him silence the Blue Jays’ batters, blanking Toronto over six innings and allowing just two hits in a 3-1 Houston victory.

Twins Pitching Profile

Minnesota’s Joe Ryan (5-5, 3.21 ERA, 0.96 WHIP) ended June with a 3.68 ERA, and his latest outing was a solid effort against the Mariners where he allowed just two runs (one earned) on six hits over 5.2 innings in a 5-3 Twins’ victory.

The Pick

I don’t know what kind of deal Hunter Brown made with the devil after getting torched in the first full month of the season but he has been nothing short of spectacular over the last two months. Nothing makes me believe his roll won’t continue on Saturday as the Astros are starting to gain steam after a poor start.

Predicted Score: Astros 5 – Twins 2
