NC Dinos vs LG Twins 4/4/24 Pick: NC Dinos
This game here will be a good battle as both of these teams are very evenly matched. However, we like the Dinos in this game here. Enns has been able to pitch well and has ended up going deep into the games. That will give the Dinos bullpen a break in the game, but the Dinos are also looking to bounce back after the shutout loss and we think that happens in this game here as the Dinos come out on top.
