Twins home dominance: 10 straight wins at Target Field before last game. 16-7 home record—top 5 in AL. Pablo Lopez: 4-2, 2.40 ERA, 49 Ks/45 IP, 0.93 WHIP. Royals’ offense weak—ranked 26th in runs/game (3.37). Twins’ bullpen: 4th in ERA, 2nd in WHIP. Lopez owns Royals—5-1, 2.23 ERA in 7 career starts, 51 Ks/44.1 IP. Last start: 6 scoreless vs Brewers. Minnesota offense trending up—9th in wRC+ over last 7 days (112), Royals just 21st (91). Carlos Correa could return, lineup deeper. Royals rookie starter Noah Cameron—great first 2 starts (0.71 ERA), but just 12.2 MLB innings. Facing hot Twins lineup + home crowd pressure. Twins defense sharp—.983 fielding pct. Recent head-to-head favors KC, but Twins evolved—20 wins in last 27.

Royals' active roster has the lowest strikeout rate in the league against righties. Also think Lopez's strikeout rate could decline over a larger sample, based on the number of whiffs he's generating. Have Lopez projected at 5.37 strikeouts tonight, low enough for me to see value in the under.
