T.M. Selection: MIN @ KC - UNDER

Sonny Gray (0-0, 0.00 ERA) vs. Jordan Lyles (0-0, 0.00 ERA)

I am on the UNDER in the Minnesota Twins @ Kansas City Royals game on Saturday. Traditionally, I tend to play more UNDER's than OVER's to start the season. That is exactly the case here. Although the pitchers might not be entirely strong, they are both more than capable and these lineups are not exactly explosive. Last season, the Twins were much better than the Royals. However, this season I believe that Minnesota will take a step back and the Royals might gain a step or two. Sonny Gray owned a pretty strong 3.09 ERA last year in 24 appearances. Lyles was a tad worse with a 4.42 ERA, but I'm expecting a much better season here for the 32yr old righty. This game should move along pretty quickly. Getting the UNDER at + money is too much to pass up.

T.M. Prediction: 4-1 Royals.

Line: O/U 8.5, +102

Line Parameter: play until 8.5, -130..
