The Twins were active at the trade deadline by adding Mahle and Lopez to help the pitching staff. Meanwhile, the Royals are going nowhere again this season and it’s tough to have faith in a team who is worst offensive team in MLB.

Mahle was sharp in his last start against the Angels and should pitch well in this contest as well. The Twins have a solid lineup and the capability to feast against a bad Royals bullpen. Mahle shuts the bats down for Kansas City and Minnesota earns the win on Wednesday afternoon as your free play.
