MLB Odds: Guardians-Twins prediction, odds and pick
The Guardians lost the series debut 12-8 on Friday. They are 15-16 and one game below the .50 threshold. The Twins are 19-14 and have a good record at home. Devin Smeltzer will start for the Twins against the Guardians.
The Guardians are trying to reach the postseason for the first time since 2020. They lost to the Twins in the AL Wild Card Series in 2020 and they are looking to make up for it this time. The team is one of the most prolific in scoring runs and is in top five in several statistical categories. Bieber is 5-1 with a 3.63 ERA in 11 starts against Minnesota. He had a bad outing against them last time and he should be motivated to do better this Saturday.
The Minnesota Twins beat Cleveland 12-8 on Friday. Rookie shortstop Royce Lewis hit his first career home run and grand slam. The Twins have a good offensive team with a .240 batting average and .392 slugging percentage. Their starting pitching staff has exceeded expectations with 20 quality starts out of their starters. They have had more than four pitchers injured at the halfway point of May. They are expected to cover the spread against the Red Sox.
Even with Bieber on the mound for Cleveland, there is not one team in the majors that wants to face this Twins lineup right now. Guardians-Twins is a -1.5 spread.
