Prop Bets: Minnesota Twins VS Houston Astros 2025-06-15

Sunday Funday in Houston: Astros Look to Keep Winning Streak Alive Against Twins

The Houston Astros (40-30) are riding a four-game winning streak and are looking to make it five as they host the Minnesota Twins (36-34) at Daikin Park on Sunday at 2:10 p.m. ET. The Astros are favored at -130 (or 1.85 in decimal odds), while the Twins are the underdogs at +130 (or 2.0 in decimal odds).

The Starting Pitchers

Brandon Walter will take the mound for the Astros, while Simeon Woods Richardson will start for the Twins.

The Key Players to Watch

• Jeremy Pena, fresh off a four-hit game, looks to keep the hits coming for the Astros.
  * Byron Buxton, leading the Twins in home runs (11) and RBIs (41), will try to go deep and drive in some runs.

The Best Bets

• Moneyline: Astros -130 (1.85), Twins +130 (2.0)
  Spread: Astros -1.5 (1.48), Twins +1.5 (2.72)
  Over/Under: Over 8.0 (1.93), Under 8.0 (1.89)

Player Prop Bets

• Consider taking Byron Buxton to hit a home run at around +350 (or 3.5) odds. He's due for a big game, and the Astros' pitching staff has shown some vulnerability.
  * Jeremy Pena's hit prop is set at 1.5 hits at -190 (or 1.9) for the under and +160 (or 2.6) for the over. Given his recent form, taking the over might not be a bad idea.

The Prediction

The Astros are on a roll, and their pitching staff, with a 10 K/9 and a 3.50 team ERA, should be able to contain the Twins' offense. I'm taking the Astros to win and cover at -1.5. The over/under is a tougher call, but I think the Astros' offense will come out on top, making the over 8.0 a good bet.

The Final Score: Astros 6, Twins 3.
