Marlins vs Twins Prediction

I’m over here. These are just two starting players that I don’t trust at all, as Bellozo just can’t get off to a clean start and Festa finds a way to give up his fair share of goals. The Twins took out the bats in a big way on Wednesday, but I think the Marlins respond here with some runs of their own. Give me the over.
