Ryan's clear ERA edge over Leiter is the primary driver of a lean toward Minnesota, but the moderate price (-131), road record concerns, and Texas's solid home ATS mark keep this a LEAN rather than a PICK.
Key Factors

Minnesota owns a +7% ATS win rate advantage overall (40-35, .533 vs Texas 34-39, .466), showing consistent ability to beat the number
Twins are on a W3 streak including back-to-back wins at Globe Life Field (12-2 and 4-2), while Texas sits on an L2 streak and has lost 4 of their last 5
Minnesota's team OPS (.722) and runs scored (354) both outpace Texas (.696 OPS, 289 runs), and Minnesota's O/U record (43-26-6) reflects a genuinely high-scoring offense
