The Minnesota Twins come into this game with a 69-70 record overall and they are coming off a series sweep against the Cleveland Guardians. On Sunday the Twins offense only managed one run. The Twins are averaging 4.35 runs per game which is 16th best in the league. The pitching staff is ranked 15th in the league. Jose Miranda has hit 14 home runs and driven in 61 RBIs.
The Royals sit with a 57-84 record overall and they are coming off a big win in the last game against the Detroit Tigers. The pitching didn’t give up any runs and that led to the 4-0 victory. Kansas City is averaging 3.92 runs per game which is 24th in the league. The pitching has been an issue also and they ranked 26th. Salvador Perez has hit 20 home runs and driven in 67 RBIs.
On the mound for the Royals will be Kris Bubc who sits with a 2-11 record overall and an ERA of 5.40. In his last start against the Guardians, he went 6.1 innings giving up six hits and three runs.
On the mound for the Twins will be Joe Ryan who sits with a 10-8 record and an ERA of 4.05. In his last start against the Yankees, he went four innings giving up three hits and four runs.
The Royals are 0-7 in Bubic’s last seven road starts. The Twins are 5-1 in their last six home games against a team with a losing record. The under is 8-1 in Bubic’s last nine road starts. The over is 8-0 in the Royals last eight games during Game 1 of a series.
Ryan hasn’t been good as of late, and Bubic is coming off a start where he gave up three runs. Ryan gave up four runs, and both offenses are going to find plenty of success scoring here. Both offenses should get close to the total by themselves, and this game is going to go over the total. Back the over to cash.
