Twins vs. Indians Betting Pick, DFS Plays – April 18

Gambling911.com has your Twins vs. Indians betting pick and DFS plays for Saturday afternoon April 18.

Best Bets: Minnesota -108

Best DFS Picks: Phil Hughes

PITCHING MATCHUP: Indians RH Danny Salazar (NR) vs. Twins RH Phil Hughes (0-2, 5.25 ERA)

Betting Line: Twins -108, Indians +101, Total: 8

Hughes (priced at $7900) has only permitted 23 hits off of 105 at bats versus the current Cleveland roster.  He’ll be seeking redemption for a 0-2 start to the season and is in a perfect spot to do so.  He is 4-1 with a 2.80 ERA in seven starts against Cleveland.   The Twins are also 5-1 in Hughes' last 6 home starts.

Salazar is 1-1 with a 3.86 ERA in four career starts against Minnesota, striking out 22 but yielding the same amount of hits over 21 frames.

Cleveland is just 2-7 in their last 9 games as an underdog.

Zach Eflin Player Prop Bets

Zach Eflin has great value in fantasy leagues for the April 26 game against the lowly Chicago White Sox.  Betting on Eflin and the Tampa Bay Rays might make sense if not for the -210 price tag.

Trevor Williams Player Prop Bets

The Nats Trevor Williams held the Astros to one run with four strikeouts across six innings in a no-decision on Saturday.  And the betting public was eating him up at a near 80% clip. 

Tanner Bibee Player Prop Bets: Hits Allowed

Bibee was promoted to the major leagues at the start of last season and made a lot of noise in doing so.  In his debut versus the Colorado Rockies, Bibee became the first Cleveland pitcher ever to record at least five consecutive strikeouts in a Major League debut.
