Carlos Correa led the offense in the latest 5-1 victory with two RBI, while Simeon Woods Richardson got the win after allowing one run on four hits with seven strikeouts and no walks over 5.1 innings of work.

Angels vs Twins Prediction

The Twins won eight of the previous ten H2H encounters, including the last four. We have a pitching matchup between two solid pitchers, but I am giving a slight advantage to Joe Ryan and the Twins, who are playing at home and are in better form than the Angels at the moment. Jose Soriano was disastrous in his last start against Minnesota, as he registered a 21.60 ERA in 1.2 innings. Ryan allowed a .273 BA in 33 at-bats against the Angels. Ryan struggled in his latest start against Atlanta, and I am backing him to bounce back here and get the win.
