Minnesota Twins vs Kansas City Royals Prediction
The Twins continue to pile up the losses and look like a team that’s ready for vacation. Ober doesn’t make things any better, as he’s allowed 33 hits and 18 runs in his last 32 innings. In 52.1 road innings, Ober has a 6.02 ERA and .324 allowed batting average. No, thanks. In 139 at bats against current Royals, Ober is allowing a .281 batting average and .310 on base percentage. No matter what you think of Lorenzen, the Royals have to take advantage of this game. No excuses. Give me the Royals.
