This isn’t exactly a battle of juggernauts. Philly has lost seven straight and they have been held to 2 runs or less in their last six games. The Twins have dropped five of their last six, but they have at least put up 13 runs in their last two games. Both pitchers are also struggling, but Duffey is likely to get some run support while Nola isn’t. The Phillies just can’t seem to produce runs right now, so look for the Twins to win at home.
