Minnesota Twins vs Kansas City Royals Prediction & Picks - MLB
by Edgar Jibran | in MLB Picks
One of the most spectacular MLB series will be played next Friday, September 06th when Kansas City Royals receive Minnesota Twins at 06:10 pm Central Time. This will be the first game of the series between them, and it represents the huge opportunity for Kansas City to take down the Twins from the second spot of the AL Central Division.
In this regard, Kansas City got a key victory in the third game of the series against Cleveland Guardians that allowed them to cut off with a streak of 7 losses in a row. However, Bobby Witt Jr. has remained in an unstoppable level after cooperating with 117 runs and 30 home runs throughout the season, as well as 3 runs and 2 home runs during his last 7 games.
Meanwhile, Minnesota Twins used a lot of resources to keep their 0.5 games’ advantage over Kansas City during the last game of the series against Tampa Bay Rays. Also, it’s relevant to note that even when Willi Castro is the offensive leader with 79 scored runs throughout the season, he hasn’t been able to score during his last 7 disputed games, so Santana has turned into the offensive key player for the Twins in the most recent matches.
