For the season, Donovan is batting .266 with 10 homers, 56 RBIs, and a .726 OPS across 519 plate appearances. Brendan Donovan is hitting .295 over the past 15 days, making him an interesting DFS option on Saturday.

Twins catcher Ryan Jeffers recorded 40% of his team’s hits in their 6-1 loss to the Cardinals on Friday. Hitting out of the #5 spot in the lineup, Jeffers went 2 for 3 with a run scored. Across 372 plate appearances this year, the 6’4” right-handed hitter is batting .237 with 20 homers, 59 RBIs, and a .790 OPS. Ryan Jeffers is hitting .455 with an OPS of 1.811 over the past 7 days.

Cardinals vs. Twins Betting Prediction

The Twins will send 6’4” right-hander Pablo Lopez to the hill for this game. He had a bumpy start to the season as he posted an an ERA of over 4.80 in April, May, and June. Since the calendar flipped to July, Lopez has been much better. Since July 5th, Pablo Lopez is 3-2 with an ERA of 3.64 and a strikeout-to-walk ratio of 3.5. The 28-year-old from Venezuela was getting unlucky in the first half of the season, as his expected numbers were much better than his actual statistics. Lopez has seen some predictable positive regression in the second half of the season. Pablo Lopez has thrown 13 quality starts in 25 outings this year. I believe he will toss another quality start on Saturday, and the Twins will win the game outright. I’m taking Minnesota on the money line in this one.
