The Houston Astros have dominated the Minnesota Twins as of recent as they have won 12 of their last 15 meetings. The Houston Astros have been one of the hottest teams in the MLB over the last week or so, and a huge reason for that has been the revival of their bats. Jose Altuve is finally playing up to his MVP caliber as he has 8 HRs while leadoff hitter George Springer has 17 RBIs and 6 HRs. The Minnesota Twins are a good team, but they are coming off 3 games in 2 days, and you have to figure in fatigue especially when traveling. Final Score Prediction, Houston Astros win, 6-4.
