Minnesota Twins vs Chicago White Sox Prediction

I’m going to stay with the Twins I suppose. Probably not touching it, though; the line’s way too thick to mess with. Also, Richardson needs a bounce-back start here after surrendering six earned in 3.1 innings during a loss to the Mets on July 29. Prior to that however, Richardson posted 10.1 innings with two earned over two starts. As for Flexen, he’s given up 12 earned over his last 15.1 innings (seven in one start).

On Saturday the Twins got a nice starting effort from Bailey Ober on 7.0 innings and two earned. Minnesota only used two arms out of the pen so they should be set up well Sunday. I’m staying away regardless, though.
