Houston Astros
The Houston Astros is looking to continue their winning streak with their solid lineup of magnificent hitters like Yordan Alvarez who has an OPS of .957. However, they need to be careful because the Twins also have great and even better players in their set such as Byron Buxton and Max Kepler that can dominate the match if they're not careful.
They would also need to keep in mind their injury list. For May, there are three players on the injury list with Lance McCullers Jr. and Taylor Jones having to be off the field for around 60 days.
Minnesota Twins
The Minnesota Twins placed comparatively lower than the Astros when compared side by side. But a few of their players have proven to have better stats, like hitter Byron Buxton with an OPS of 1.064 and pitcher Joe Ryan with an ERA of 1.63.
If they somehow manage to effectively utilize their star players, they might have a chance to win and end the Astros' win streak. But they will also need to be careful in taking care of their massive player hole due to the injury list. As of May, there are 6 players in IL, with Luis Arraez and Dylan Bundy being out of the lineup due to testing positive for COVID-19.
