The Los Angeles Dodgers are favored to snap their two-game losing skid tonight, priced at -150 on the moneyline against the Minnesota Twins.

With a lethal offense well-positioned to find success, my Dodgers vs. Twins predictions and MLB picks expect Los Angeles to come out on top in a high-scoring affair on June 22.

Who will win Dodgers vs Twins today: Los Angeles Dodgers (-150)

Minnesota Twins starter Zebby Matthews doesn’t strike many batters out and ranks in the ninth percentile in barrel rate allowed. That is a recipe for disaster going up against the Los Angeles Dodgers.

They rank first in batting average, OBP, OPS, and hard-hit rate on the road when facing right-handed pitching.

They feature a plethora of marquee left-handed bats — most notably Shohei Ohtani, Freddie Freeman, and Kyle Tucker — who can capitalize on Matthews’ struggles vs. that handedness.

Minnesota’s bullpen ranks 27th in FIP in June, so they don’t have much hope of slowing L.A. down.

Back the Dodgers to -160.

Covers COVERS INTEL: Matthews has allowed 2.08 HR/9 over the last month and now faces the league leaders in homers against right-handed pitching.

Dodgers vs Twins Over/Under pick: Over 9.5 (-105)

This game has potential for real fireworks.

Los Angeles has an elite offense across the board that is well-positioned to find success against Matthews, and a bullpen allowing homers at the fourth-highest rate in June.

While Eric Lauer has shown some signs of improvement with the Dodgers, he still ranks in the ninth percentile in Pitcher Run Value this season.

Behind him is a bullpen that sits 22nd in FIP and 26th in home run prevention through the first three weeks of the month.

Both teams should have productive days in a very high-scoring affair.

Play the Over to -115.

Warm temperatures in the high 70s are expected, but the winds will be blowing slightly inward. I don't think the weather will have much impact on this game.
