The Minnesota Twins mustered just 3 hits last night in their 3-1 setback to the Chicago White Sox, but don’t expect a repeat of that tonight when they open a 4-game set at home with the 56-97 Kansas City Royals. Kyle Gibson is having the best season of his career and he will be tapping the rubber tonight for Minnesota. Gibson is 13-7 on the season and the Twins are 5-0 in his last 5 turns at Target Field against the Royals. KC is expected to counter with the lefty, Mike Montgomery. The Twins should feast on this guy. Montgomery is 0-4 in his last 4 turns and just 1-5 in his last 6 road starts with a bloated ERA of 7.85. That’s not good. Minnesota gets it done.
TONIGHT’S PICK: MINNESOTA TWINS
