A must-win game for the Twins

The Twins are 2-5 SU in their last 7 games overall, 2-7 SU in their last 9 games against teams from the NL, and 1-4 SU in their last 5 games against teams from the NL East. Minnesota has played over the total run line in 6 of their last 7 home games and 5 of their last 6 home games against Miami. The Marlins are 4-11 SU in their last 15 games overall, 4-2 SU in their last 6 games against the Twins, and 2-7 SU in their last 9 games played on Thursday.

Prediction and Conclusion

The Minnesota Twins are going into this game with only a 22.5% chance to make it to the playoffs. Things are not in their full control at this point, but they have to win every game left on the schedule and hope for the other results to go in their favor. The Twins won 8-3 last night even though they went 3-0 down in the first inning. They will try to add another one tonight, going with David Festa on the mound. The rookie is 2-6 for the season, with a 4.80 ERA, 72 K, 60 IP, and 1.28 WHIP. The Marlins will start their rookie, Valente Bellozo, who is 3-4 for the season with a 3.82 ERA, 42 K, 63.2 IP, and 1.30 WHIP. The Marlins have nothing to lose in this game while the Twins have their season on the line. In that scenario, we go with the Twins winning this one.
