Minnesota Twins play in the AL Central.

Minnesota Twins overview

The Minnesota Twins play in the American League Central at Target Field in downtown Minneapolis, one of the few modern ballparks built without a roof in a cold-weather city. The franchise began as the original Washington Senators and moved to Minnesota in 1961. The Twins have won three World Series, one in Washington in 1924 and two in Minnesota in 1987 and 1991, the latter capped by one of the greatest Game 7s ever played. For bettors, Target Field's early-season weather and the team's long history of strong home performances in October are notable, along with a division slate that includes frequent trips to nearby Midwestern cities.

Betting insights

Target Field is open to the elements, so April and May games in Minneapolis can be among the coldest in baseball. Cold air suppresses ball flight, which can make early-season unders worth a look, although sportsbooks account for the forecast. In summer, the park plays closer to neutral. The Twins' home games after long road trips and their schedule of day games after night games are useful spots to check lineups. Division rivals share similar climate patterns, so AL Central totals early in the season should be read with the weather in mind. Starting pitcher quality is always the anchor for any Twins handicap.
