The AL Central is the worst division in baseball so every team has hope. Two AL Central rivals face off with the Minnesota Twins taking on the Kansas City Royals. The Twins took the opener of the series 4-1. Joe Ryan is set to make the start for the Twins. Last season he posted a career high 4.51 ERA and a 1.17 WHIP, both numbers he will need to improve on. Kansas City has a lot of young talent but can they put it all together and win games is the question. Seth Lugo gets the start for the Royals. He came over from the Padres in the offseason. The Twins are still the team to beat in the AL Central and even though KC has a lot to like, they have to show me that they can win games. The Twins are 6-4 in the last ten games against the Royals. Ryan is 5-0 in six starts against the Royals. He gave up only six runs in those starts. If this game is close late, the Twins have the better and more trusted bullpen.

Play on Minnesota. This is a 3% play.
