The Minnesota Twins, on the other hand, are still leading the AL Central Division despite their recent struggles. They are coming off a disappointing loss against the New York Yankees where they allowed 12 runs and lost 12-6.

Although the Twins started the season strong, they have been struggling lately and are looking to turn things around against the struggling Royals.

Over on the Minnesota side, they beat the Yankees 6-1 Monday and 6-2 in the Tuesday matchup. On Wednesday the Twins gave up 14 hits in a 12-6 loss.

Starter Kenta Maeda lasted 3.0 innings with 10 earned, 11 hits and two walks. It’ll be Tyler Mahle in the starting lineup for the Twins on Thursday.

Kansas City Royals vs Minnesota Twins. The MLB pick for this game is the Minnesota Twins. As the Twins are heavily favored with a -222 line, many may overlook the potential competitiveness of this game.

However, with Greinke taking the mound, despite his winless record, it’s worth noting that his lack of success may be attributed to offensive struggles rather than his own performance.

As a result, it’s likely that the Royals will put up a fight and at least keep the score within reach. In fact, taking the +1.5 spread seems like a reasonable choice.

My final score prediction for this game is a close 5-4 victory for the Twins. While the Twins are favored to win, the Royals will be eager to pull off an upset on the road.

The game promises to be an exciting one as both teams look to gain some much-needed momentum in the AL Central Division.
