I know, a pitching matchup of J.A. Happ versus Brady Singer inspires little confidence that a low-scoring game will be taking place.

But because of that the oddsmaker has set too high of a total on this Twins-Royals matchup. I don't see these teams combining for double-digits runs here.

Happ pitched well in his last start holding the Indians to two runs in six innings. Cleveland isn't a strong offensive team, but neither is Kansas City.

The Royals rank 24th in runs and 25th in homers. They have scored 2 or fewer runs in four of their last six games. Kansas City is missing a pair of key offensive cogs in Andrew Benintendi and Adalberto Mondesi.

Singer is a promising starter, who is going through growing pains with a 3-6 record and 4.70 ERA. Singer has been respectable in two starts versus Minnesota this season giving up three runs in 7 2/3 innings.

The Over has won just three out of the last 15 times the teams have met in Kansas City.
