Minnesota at Kansas City

April 1, 2026
img7:40 PM Eastern

The not-so-good news for Kansas City is that they are off to a pedestrian start at 2-2. The good news is that it is good enough to be tied for the AL Central lead in the early going. The Royals have strong pitching, but their offense has yet to get going, as they have scored just nine runs in their first four games. Minnesota is a bit worse as the Twins are just 1-3 on the season, and like Kansas City, have not been able to get the offense going as they have scored just 12 times. Going back to the start of last season, Minnesota is 13-25 vs. a left-handed starter. The Royals are 18-8 when facing a bad team (.380 or less). Make the play on Kansas City.
