SSG Landers vs LG Twins 5/7/24 Pick: LG Twins
This is a game here that we are going to take the LG Twins. The Twins are playing at home on the day, but also are playing some great baseball overall. With that being the case we really like the way the Twins are pitching and that will make it easier for us to see the Twins securing the win here. However, the Landers team could potentially put up a fight in the game here, but it will be a good back and forth game with the Twins coming out on top.
