The Minnesota Twins seek to extend their winning streak to three as they play the Colorado Rockies in Game 2 of their series on Tuesday at Target Field. After suffering five consecutive setbacks, the Twins scored two huge back-to-back wins against the Pittsburgh Pirates and the Rockies to keep them four games above .500 at 35-31. Chris Paddack put the memory of a terrible outing (7 earned runs in 4.1 innings) against the New York Yankees to bed as the 28-year-old hurler stifled the Colorado for six scoreless innings. He also struck out six to set the tone in Minnesota’s dominant 5-0 win. Meanwhile, the Rockies have now lost eight of their last 10 games, burying them deeper into the NL West standings with a 23-48 slate. Colorado has the worst pitching numbers in baseball, giving up 5.32 earned runs per game and a 1.52 WHIP.
Pitchers Matchup: the Rockies will send right-handed pitcher Cal Quantrill (5-4, 3.58 ERA with 51 Ks) to the mound against Twins’ RHP Louie Varland (0-4, 9.18 ERA with 18 strikeouts).

Our Minnesota Twins vs Colorado Rockies Prediction
BetMGM has pegged the Twins at -210 home favorites hours before Tuesday’s ballgame. Minnesota’s win on Monday marked the team’s first victory in five home games. On the other hand, the Rockies are 2-5 in their last seven road games. Picking the outright winner is going to be tricky for any bettor since both teams have had a fair share of losing in the past two weeks. However, I have a feeling that Cal Quantrill will put up a strong start against the Twins after blanking the St. Louis Cardinals for 5.0 innings in his last tour on the mound. Of course, Minnesota remains dangerous if given the opportunity to deal damage early. Still, the Rockies are in a good position to score more runs than usual since they’ll be batting against Louie Varland, who has a worrisome 9.18 ERA. Our betting prediction for Colorado Rockies vs. Minnesota Twins: Bet on the Rockies to Win, +170, at BetMGM.
