I made my line for this game 8.5 and I still leaned under strong at that number..at 9.5 this is a strong play for me tonight...A bunch of reasons why I think we see a boring dull game here with limited runs...Let's start with the Twins...They are cold right now losers of 4 in a row...They haven't had a good day at the plate in 4 games..3 runs at best for them over that short stretch...Still the Twins are cold and that's a good factor for us here....Sox have been doing well, but now they will be on the road against Ervin Santana...He is one of the better pitchers in the league with his 2.56 ERA....Santana was roughed up in his last start and when he gets roughed up, the next start he tends to really do well...He has given up 0 ER in 3 of his worst outings the next game..That's a good trend and a team he can silence here at home.....Santana hasn't won at home since early May....Kinda odd, but he will be looking for a big rebound and home win tonight....The White Sox will go with Holland....He has had some issues on the road in his last two outings..My gut feeling is he comes in ready for this one tonight though..He has seen the Twins before and did well against them overall..He did walk a few batters , but he gave up 3 HR's and that really hurt him in that game...he ended up losing the game, so revenge is in order here tonight for Holland....I think he pitches one of his best games of the season tonight with the current form of the Twins...This is a tight division as well, so both pitchers will be looking for a win and to keep it close.....Sox struggle against the RHP and the Twins are avg with the LHP...I expect a lower scoring game...Maybe 4-3 area 5-3 area at best...I just don't see them getting 10 runs in this game tonight..
