Minnesota Twins vs Toronto Blue Jays.
Stadium: Target Field.
Nothing will be decided yet for the Toronto Blue Jays as the Canadian team continues their battle for the playoffs. The next opponent for the Blue Jays is Minnesota, who have long since lost their postseason chances. In the upcoming game, will whoever is more motivated to win? Let’s pick a few bets on the MLB regular season matchup at once.
Minnesota don’t need anything anymore
The Twins approach the home series with Toronto in the last place in the Central Division and 13th in the entire American League. Only Texas and Baltimore are lower. Perhaps the only thing the Twins can be interested in at the end of the championship from a tournament standpoint is getting away from the last place in the AL Central. Minnesota are three wins away from the 4th team in the division, the Kansas City Royals. It is a surprisingly disappointing season for a team that, in the previous two championships under Rocco Baldelli, surpassed the 60% win mark.
Starting on the slide for the Twins in the upcoming match will be Michael Pineda. The 32-year-old Dominican has seven wins, eight losses, and a 3.74 ERA this season.
Toronto face a tough finish
As it happens, three teams from the Eastern Division - Toronto, New York Yankees, and Boston - are fighting for two American League wild-card spots. There are essentially no other candidates. The Red Sox are just above, while the Blue Jays and Yankees are two wins behind. One of these good teams will not make the playoffs. It’s a shame, but at the same time - the end of the regular season promises to be fiery!
Ahead of the game in Minneapolis, Toronto had an away series against Tampa, almost the winner of the Eastern Division. The Blue Jays lost 2 out of 3 games, which allowed the Yankees to catch up in the standings. Last night’s loss was harrowing, 1-7.
Steven Matz was named starting pitcher for the upcoming game against the Twins. The 30-year-old pitcher has 13 wins, seven losses, and a 3.86 ERA this season. Matz has historically played well against Minnesota - only seven hits allowed in 39 at-bats.

Toronto will play 4 of their remaining ten games in Minneapolis against the Twins. Needless to say, how important is it for the Canadians to get maximum wins in this confrontation? The Blue Jays will likely take over in the first game. Toronto have a solid roster, especially on offense, for which a second straight non-scoring game is nonsense.
