Brewers vs Twins Prediction
The current betting odds have the Brewers listed as an underdog in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The Twins haven't looked great in their games this season with their 37-37 record overall, but that record has them right in the middle of the AL Central and in the Wild Card race. They have also looked a lot better in their own ballpark this year with their 20-12 home record. Meanwhile, the Brewers have looked good in their games this season with their 40-35 record overall which has them right near the top of the NL Central. They haven't been a great road team though with their 17-20 road record this season. The Brewers haven't looked great lately as they are only 5-5 in their last 10 games, but they have still looked a lot better than the Twins who are 3-7 in their last 10 games. The Brewers also have the better pitching matchup in this one and they can take advantage of that. The Brewers are going with Quintana in this one and he has looked good this season. He is 4-2 with a 3.35 ERA and the team has won 2 of the last 3 games he started in too. He did give up 5 earned runs in his last start, but that hasn't been a common theme for him this year and he will be looking to bounce back with a better start. The Twins are going with Woods Richardson in this one and he hasn't looked good in his starts this year. He is 2-3 with a 5.13 ERA and has been giving up quite a few runs in his starts. He is coming off a good start in his last one in which he didn't give up any runs, but that hasn't been a common theme for him this year and the team has still lost 2 games in a row with him starting. The best way to place a bet here is on the Brewers to win this game.

Notable Quotes
“He's getting comfortable, and he's getting confident. He knows what he has to do, and he's a tenacious competitor. No situation's going to be too big for him. He's worked too hard to get here, so he's not going to back down from any situation.” - Pat Murphy on Caleb Durbin after his team’s win against the Cubs in their game on Thursday.
“He's been in that really good, relaxed place. You might call it 'the zone.' He's playing great. Seeing the ball good. Had another good day at the plate, swinging at good pitches. Really attacking and barreling them up. Another incredible effort.” - Rocco Baldelli on Byron Buxton after his team’s win against the Reds in their game on Thursday.
