Minnesota Twins vs Miami Marlins Prediction

I’m on the Marlins here. I just don’t like this price with the Twins giving the start to Woods-Richardson, who has looked like he’s running out of gas down the stretch as a starter not used to this level of workload as a major-leaguer. Edward Cabrera has shown improvement more often than not since returning from the IL, and the Marlins have been better than expected down the stretch against righties. I think there’s value to be had with Miami here. Give me the Fish.
