The Rays rank eighth in the majors in homers. They have hit at least one homer in 14 straight games. The Twins can't match that power.

The pitching matchup favors the Rays, too, with Jose Berrios versus Alex Cobb.

Berrios has a very high ceiling. But he has not been good on the road going 4-5 with a 5.12 ERA.

Cobb is underrated. He should have more wins that he does. He has a 2.20 ERA in his last three starts, none of which resulted in a win for him. Cobb also is 1-0 lifetime against Minnesota with a 2.53 ERA in two career starts.
