Minnesota at Kansas City

They've cooled off, on a 4-5 run, and Devin Smeltzer makes his second appearance after having a 4.10 ERA last year. The Twins are 29-41 against lefty starters, plus 19-27 on the road versus a team that is getting outscored by 0.5 or more runs per game. Kansas City has won two of three and plays its sixth consecutive home contest here. Young starter Daniel Lynch (3.30 ERA) has been very good with a 2.70 ERA at home, and the team has won three of his last five starts. Kansas City is 46-39 at home against teams that steal 0.5 or fewer bases per game, and the wagering value is on the home team to win or lose by a run. Play Kansas City on the runline.
