Off a win last night, he Twins meet the Royals for the second game of the KC series. The Twins are just over .500 on the road, but the Royals have struggled at home this season. Joe Ryan (4-2, 2.39 ERA), the Twins starter today, has been a bright light this season, and shutout the Royals in April. With just one sub-par start in 7 appearances, he has also been good on the road.

Royals’ starter Brad Keller was terrific in April, but things have gone somewhat south in his two recent starts. The Twins have had previous success vs. Keller. Keller has seen opposing batters' average rise by 100 points in May, and given up 3 home runs in his last two starts.

The Twins have the edge in relief pitching for the season and in recent games. The Royals have shown a bit more offense recently, but the Twins are a better offensive team as well.

I am on Ryan and the Twins today. Watch the Royals continue to struggle at home and take the Twins to win again.
