Minnesota Twins vs Kansas City Royals Prediction

Zebby Matthews was awful in his last game and it’s going to be much of the same here. The Royals were able to get the monkey off their backs in the last game and they are going to build on that game here. The Twins bats are going to struggle to get Ragans and that is going to be the difference as the Royals are going to get the job done. Back the Royals on the money line to cash here.
