MGM. Juice at -140 at DK also OK. 73rd percentile in whiff rate so far - it’s early, but Houck - he’s always had swing and miss stuff, but last season he struggled to put hitters away. So far this season, he’s at 15 K’s in 14 IP, after a strong spring as well. A big change is the cutter that he’s been throwing to LHH - that should play well today vs a Twins team featuring 6 LHH. MIN is 7th in K% vs RHP (and 23rd in OPS). 9/L12 RH starters have hit this. Julien, Larnach and Gallo at 3, 4, 5 is great for this play.
