Over on the Twins’ side, they played two games versus the Cleveland Guardians over the weekend and lost both. Minnesota could only muster three hits in the Monday loss, then on Tuesday the Twins got solo home runs from Carlos Correa, Alex Kirilloff and Ryan Jeffers in the losing effort. Louie Varland gave up six earned in 5.0 frames during the start.

Dodgers vs Twins Prediction

I’ll lean toward the Dodgers here. Miller needs a good bounce-back effort on the mound, though. In his last start versus the Cubs, Miller put up just 1.2 innings with five earned on four hits and two walks in a loss. The good news is that Miller was great in his debut with 6.0 clean innings against the Cardinals.

On Tuesday Los Angeles benefited from a couple of big swings from Smith and Outman. The 7.0 clean frames and 14 strikeouts from Tyler Glasnow were a huge help as well. Provided Miller can give the Dodgers a quality start I think LA will be in a good spot Wednesday. The bullpen has to perform better this time, though.
