After a fast start by Kansas City they have tallied off a bit with two wins over their last five games. Minnesota who was dreadful to start the season has rebound nicely with 4 wins in their last five. Kyle Gibson gets the ball for Minnesota and he put in a good effort in his last game against tonight’s opponent after a disastrous opener. He’s been exceptional against the Royals with the Twins getting the win in all four of his career starts. Edinson Volques will take the mound for Kansas City and he’s been bang on since his first pitch this season pitching 8 inning 1-run ball against the White Sox and 7 2/3 against the Twins allowing 3 runs. These two pitchers started on April 15 in a 3-1 Twins victory and no reason to think that we won’t see more of the same tonight.
Take the Twins
