The Minnesota Twins are tied with the Oakland A’s for the the best record in the American League, at 10-4, but have lost two straight. Look for them to get back on track tonight when they visit the Kansas City Royals. Despite last night’s loss to KC, the Twins are 8-3 in their last 11 meetings with the Royals, 7-3 in their last 10 at Kauffman Stadium, and are expected to send stud Jake Odorizzi to the hill. Odorizzi will be making his season debut after a stint on the IL but feels great and is ready to go. His numbers were impressive in 2019, going 15-7 with a 3.51 ERA. Odorizzi will be opposing KC’s southpaw Danny Duffy who is winless on the season, at 0-2 with a 4.11 ERA. The Twins have had their way with left-handed starters, with a record of 6-2 in their last 8, and will notch another one tonight.
