Minnesota Twins DFS SPIN
Alex Kirilloff homered, doubled and drove in four runs on Sunday afternoon, powering the Twins to a 5-4 victory over the Athletics and to a sweep of their three-game weekend set. The 25-year-old slugger crushed a 381-foot (99.7 mph EV) solo shot off of JP Sears in the fifth inning that pulled the Twins to within one run at 3-2. He then delivered the biggest blow in the game with a bases-clearing three-run double off of Lucas Erceg in the eighth inning to make it a 5-3 ballgame. Kirilloff has done a nice job for the Twins this season — slashing .272/.370/.411 with five homers and 22 RBI in 180 at-bats.
Seattle Mariners DFS SPIN
J.P. Crawford went 3-for-3 with a pair of doubles, walk and a run scored as the Mariners eked out a 2-0 victory over the visiting Tigers on Sunday afternoon. Crawford drew a leadoff walk off of Reese Olson to start the home half of the first inning, then dashed around to score the M’s first run on a two-out RBI double off the bat of Jarred Kelenic. He then added a single and a pair of doubles in his next three at-bats, but the M’s were never able to cash him in. With the three-hit attack, the 28-year-old is now hitting .258/.368/.402 to go along with eight homers, 33 RBI and one stolen base on the season.

Twins vs. Mariners MLB BETTING PREDICTION
This has the makings of an excellent pitcher’s duel. Sonny Gray, fresh off an All-Star appearance last week, is 4-3 with a 2.89 ERA on the season. While he is coming off his worst start of the season (six earned runs on six hits over six innings of a 6-2 loss to the Orioles on July 8), he’s 5-3 with a 2.73 ERA in 14 career starts against the Mariners. Gray will oppose Logan Gilbert, who is 7-5 with a 3.66 ERA and is 1-0 with a 0.82 ERA in two previous starts against the Twins.
