Minnesota Twins DFS Spin
Twins center fielder Byron Buxton reached base 3 times in his team’s 5-2 loss to the Dodgers on Monday night. In that game, the 2-time All-Star went 2 for 4 with a home run, an RBI, a walk, and 2 runs scored. For the season, Buxton is hitting .292 with 23 homers, 58 RBIs, 17 steals, and an OPS of .936 in 312 at-bats. Byron Buxton is batting .313 with an OPS of 1.074 over his last 30 games, making him an appealing DFS option on Tuesday.
Los Angeles Dodgers DFS Spin
Dodgers catcher Will Smith drove in 40% of his team’s runs in their 5-2 win over the Twins on Monday. Hitting out of the #3 spot in the lineup, the 30-year-old right-handed hitter went 2 for 4 with 2 homers, 2 RBIs, and 2 runs scored. Smith is hitting .326 with 14 homers, 48 RBIs, 2 steals, and an OPS of .980 in 261 at-bats this year. The 3-time All-Star is batting .374 with an OPS of 1.108 in home games this season. That fact makes Will Smith worth a look in most DFS formats for Tuesday’s game at Dodger Stadium.

Twins vs. Dodgers Betting Prediction
I like the Twins in this matchup, mainly due to their starting pitcher, Simeon Woods Richardson. Woods Richardson has been terrific in July. In 3 starts spanning 14.2 innings this month, the 24-year-old right-hander is 2-0 with a 1.23 ERA, a 1.09 WHIP, a 10-6 strikeout-to-walk ratio, and a 31-2 fly ball to home run ratio. The Sugar Land, TX, native already has a pair of wins over National League teams this month (the Cubs and Marlins), and I like him to earn a third victory over a National League club on Tuesday. The pick is Minnesota +185 on the money line over Los Angeles at Bovada.lv.
