Major League Baseball Top Exposure May 26 - Twins

Early money line action was on the Minnesota Twins 60% at +116 as that price continued to become less attractive.  Seattle had dropped -143 to -120 at some books and suggests at the onset that the sportsbooks believe the Twins are going to win here.

PITCHING MATCHUP: Twins RH Jake Odorizzi (3-2, 3.17 ERA) vs. Mariners LH Wade LeBlanc (0-0, 2.65)

Odorizzi's unbeaten streak reached five starts on Sunday as he settled for a no-decision against Milwaukee despite allowing just one run and five hits while registering a season-high 10 strikeouts in 5 2/3 innings but he is just 1-3 with a 4.11 ERA in seven career starts against Seattle, including a no-decision on May 14.

LeBlanc seeks his first decision Saturday as he makes his fifth straight start after five appearances out of the bullpen.

This is not a situation where a play on either side is wise and we will therefore sit out on this one.  It is a nationally televised MLB game on ESPN so should get some good betting activity.

Chris Paddack Player Prop Bets

Paddack recorded 10 strikeouts over seven shutout innings on Monday in a win over the White Sox. Prior to that start, Paddack was obliterated by the Orioles, allowing nine runs on 12 hits in 5 1/3 innings.

Zach Eflin Player Prop Bets

Zach Eflin has great value in fantasy leagues for the April 26 game against the lowly Chicago White Sox.  Betting on Eflin and the Tampa Bay Rays might make sense if not for the -210 price tag.

Trevor Williams Player Prop Bets

The Nats Trevor Williams held the Astros to one run with four strikeouts across six innings in a no-decision on Saturday.  And the betting public was eating him up at a near 80% clip.
