Royals and Twins battle in game 2 of the series in Minneapolis. Joe Ryan begins to make an argument for Cy Young having pitched at least 6IP in each of his starts. The division is tighter than ever, the Twins fell to 3rd place in the team odds to win the AL Central division title. Game 1 was won by the Twins, who almost lost the game when the Royals scored 4 in the ninth. Bobby Witt Jr. was the last out and Duran recorded his 7th save. Cole Ragans vs Woods Richardson is the pitching duel. Ragans has 13 IP without allowing a run and his ERA is already 3.34, the Royals have achieved unexpected consistency in their starting rotation and an offense that is neither good nor bad but clutch. Woods Richardson will pitch for the Twins where he shines at home. has only allowed 2ER in 11IP with 14K. On 3 out of 4 occasions this season the match was won by the favorite. For Tuesday night the Royals are favorites on betting sites at -125. It appears the betting sites are pointing to another consistent outing for Ragans.

Our Minnesota Twins vs Kansas City Royals Prediction

It is a vital series for both. Many have been waiting for the Royals to fall, but it seems to never come. The pitching duel is as good as yesterday. The Royals do not have a good K/9 ratio but they do have a very good collective ERA of 3.34, the 6th best. The Twins, on the contrary, have a high ERA but their K/9 ratio is the best in the MLB. A duel with a lot at stake, probably a pitchers' duel. Our prediction for Royals vs Twins is: Under 8, -118 at DraftKings.
