Data Skrive recommends prop betting consideration for Harrison Bader, who leads the Twins with three homers and eight RBI over their recent contests. Despite batting only .250 over that stretch, his power surge, including three homers and consistent run production, strengthens his value to exceed RBI and total base props.

Data Skrive notes that the Twins have successfully handled the favorite role this season, winning two out of three games when favored by at least -124. The implied moneyline probabilities also favor Minnesota with a 55.4% chance to win. Meanwhile, the Astros have lost their only game this year as underdogs at odds of +104 or longer. This situational trend makes the Twins' moneyline at -124 an actionable value play.

Data Skrive points out Jose Altuve as a strong player prop bet candidate for the Astros against the Twins, highlighting his hot start on the season. Altuve is batting .391 entering the game on a six-game hitting streak. These numbers suggest excellent value betting Altuve over 0.5 hits, despite the -195 odds, especially considering his recent consistent approach at the plate.
