Gambling911.com will be all over the Indians vs. Twins UNDER 8.5 today as we have two solid starting pitchers both coming off of disappointing losses.

PITCHING MATCHUP: Twins RH Trevor May (2-2, 4.15 ERA) vs. Indians RH Danny Salazar (3-1, 3.81)

May suffered his first loss since April 13 even though he only surrendered two earned runs over 5 2/3 innings. He is 2-3 against the Indians.

Even better, Danny Salazar has one of the best strikeout rates in the league (15.8%) and has enjoyed success against the Indians. Salazar is 2-1 with a 3.67 ERA in five career starts versus Minnesota and is coming off a 10-strikeout performance in the 4-2 win against the Twins on April 18. He is looking to bounce back from his first loss of the season.

Salazar, priced at $7800, is an excellent pitching pick for today’s daily fantasy roster.

The last game of this series featuring Salazar ended with 6 runs.
