The Minnesota Twins are traveling to Kauffman Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri to face off against the Kansas City Royals. The Twins are starting right hander, Jose Berrios. Berrios is 1-1 on the year with a 4.80 ERA. The Kansas City Royals are starting right-handed pitcher, Brady Singer. Singer is 0-1 this year with a 4.80 ERA.

The Minnesota Twins are off to a hot start this year, going 10-4 in their first 14 games. The Twins are led by DH, Nelson Cruz. Cruz has 3 HR and 15 RBIs; he is also batting .365 this year. Cruz is leading Minnesota in both batting average and RBIs this year. The Twins are looking forward to a favorable matchup against the struggling Royals.

The Kansas City Royals are off to a terrible start to the season, going 5-10 in their first 15 games. The Royals bats are led by second basemen, Whit Merrifield. Merrifield is leading Kansas City in homeruns and RBIs. He is batting .283, 4 HR, and 11 RBIs. Without Merrifield, the Royals have looked terrible in the batter’s box.

In this matchup I like the Minnesota Twins to win on the under. The Twins have looked good this year and will be able to hit the ball very well against Singer. The Royals have been struggling hitting this year and Berrios will be able to attack the batters. Final score prediction, Minnesota Twins will win but our best play is on the under 4-1.
