Minnesota Twins vs Toronto Blue Jays Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 04/12/26

It’s Sunday rubber match time as the Minnesota Twins and Toronto Blue jays look to secure a series win. However, Toronto will be without a key piece; designated hitter George Springer is sidelined after fracturing his toe on a foul ball. Taking the mound for the Twins will be Taj Bradley, who’s been dominant in his first 3 starts — entering with a 2-0 record and a 1.08 ERA. He’s struck out 22 batters while issuing just 4 walks over 16.2 innings. For the Blue Jays, veteran Max Scherzer will get the nod, entering with a 1-1 record and a 3.38 ERA across 2 starts this season. 

Offensively, Toronto is hitting .235 on the season and averaging 3.9 runs per game, while Minnesota is batting .224 but producing 4.7 runs per game. The Twins also have a couple of bats like Austin Martin (.375) and Josh Bell (.348 with a home run and 5 RBIs) heating up over their last 7 games. For Toronto, Bradley will need to navigate around Vladimir Guerrero Jr., as well as Ernie Clement, who have been hot over their last 6 games.

Neither bullpen inspires much confidence, with Toronto holding a 5.20 ERA and Minnesota sitting at 5.23. The difference in this matchup comes from the starting pitching, where the Twins have the edge. With Bradley dealing to start the season and the Twins getting more consistent production at the plate, Minnesota should be able to take care of business on the road and secure the series win.
