Top MLB No Runs First Inning (NRFI) Picks & Odds: Yankees vs. Twins
The Yankees and Twins finish up a three-game set this evening from Target Field with first pitch scheduled for 7:40 p.m. ET. Minnesota will look for their second straight win as they send Dylan Bundy to the bump while the Yankees opt for Gerrit Cole in the rubber match.
Cole is putting together a nice season and starting to look like the $324 million hurler that we all expected. The right-hander is 5-1 with a 2.78 ERA (21st) and 0.96 WHIP (11th) over 11 starts this season. He was dealing last time out, holding the Tigers scoreless over 7.0 innings and giving up just a pair of hits while striking out nine.
Bundy has had an up-and-down season, posting a 3-3 record, 5.57 ERA and 1.45 WHIP over nine starts. The righty was touched up for six runs (five earned) over 2.1 innings against the Blue Jays on Saturday. Bundy took the loss in the outing and the Twins have now lost his last six starts.
What's wild, or at least interesting about Bundy, is that he's been great at home this year. The 29-year-old journeyman is 2-0 with a 0.57 ERA and 0.77 WHIP when throwing at Target Field. He's going to have a tall task against the Yankees lineup, but we'll ride with the trends and hope he keeps a scoreless first frame. As for Cole, he's coming off of that dominant outing against the Tigers last time out and he looks like he's putting it all together right now. He's held the Twins to a .233 average over 43 at-bats including 0-2 from Byron Buxton and 1-8 from Jorge Polanco. Let's ride with NRFI here.
