Before Betting on Twins vs Guardians
Minnesota tumbled into 3rd place in the NL Central after being swept by the Yankees this week. When facing the other 28 teams, the Twins have fared much better. They’ve been especially impressive on the road, where the hold a 13-8 record. That will be put to the test in this series on the road against the current division leader, the Guardians. The Twins currently rank 12th in runs scored and 13th in runs allowed.
The Guardians have had an excellent start to the 2024 season. After recently claiming outright 1st place in the division, Cleveland has established itself as a contender. The Guardians rank 3rd in the AL in record and 6th in all of Major League Baseball with a +48 run differential. Like the Twins, Cleveland has been very balanced this season, ranking 8th in runs scored and 9th in runs allowed. This series will be a test for both teams on both sides of the ball.
Twins vs Guardians Offshore Odds
This should be a well-contested and exciting series between two teams in contention to win the AL Central. After years of being the MLB’s weakest division, the AL Central has become one of the strongest to start out 2024. That raises the stakes for divisional clashes such as this one. Neither team is likely to sweep here. While the Guardians will have the advantage of playing at home, Minnesota plays well on the road and will be itching for a win after being swept by the Yankees. The Twins could take two of three here.
