T.M. Selection: Minnesota Twins/New York Yankees OVER

I am on the OVER in the Minnesota Twins vs New York Yankees game on Monday. It's a new week, and that means a new series for baseball fans to watch. The Yankees can score runs, everyone knows that, and they will go up against Chris Archer (2-7, 4.52 ERA) here today. Archer has not been good whatsoever. In his last two starts, the righty has allowed 9 earned runs. He now hasn't won a game since mid June and I expect New York to kill him in this one. Looking at the Yankees, Jameson Taillon (12-4, 3.97 ERA) will get the nod. He's got an excellent record, but he allows runs almost every game. In his last six starts, he's given up 17 runs. In his last game against the Twins, he gave up 4 runs in just 4 innings. With both teams in need of wins, while battling for a playoff spot, I like the OVER a lot here today.

T.M. Prediction: 8-4 Yankees
