Royals vs Twins
(MLB) Kansas City vs. Minnesota,
Point Spread: -1.50 | 109.00 Minnesota (Home)
Result: Win
The Twins have been inconsistent, but this is a good price and situation to back them on the runline. Five games behind Cleveland in the AL Central and also two games behind Chicago I consider this a must-win for Minnesota. According to ESPN, the Twins only have a 6% chance to reach the postseason, but they have the right man on the hill in Sonny Gray. Gray is 2-0 with a 0.75 ERA against the Royals this season and has a 2.27 ERA in nine starts since the All-Star break.
Zack Greinke is 0-6 with a 6.33 ERA in 11 road starts, which includes two losses to the Twins by scores of 7-3 and 9-0.
Take Minnesota.
