Kansas City at Minnesota

Minnesota has lost five in a row while the Royals had a recent six-game winning streak and the Twins have scored a total of only 12 runs their last five games and they were swept by the Astros by a combined score of 18-4. Kansas City has won five of its last six when following an off day and they have won five straight versus teams with losing records. Heath Fillmyer will make his 10th start for Kansas City and the Royals have won his last two starts and he allowed only three runs in 13 innings against Cleveland and Baltimore. Stephen Gonsalves has been pummeled in all three of his starts, giving up 14 runs (11 earned) on 19 hits in only 10 innings. It's even worse at home where he has a 11.37 ERA in two starts. There is huge value in the road underdog in this matchup, so play the Royals.
