Minnesota Twins at Kansas City Royals series preview
By Chris Schad
The Minnesota Twins will look to rebound from its last series when they head to Kansas City for a four-game series with the Royals.
If anybody is disappointed with the Minnesota Twins’ recent performance, it shows just how far this team has come during the 2019 season. In previous years, winning two out of three games would be a celebration and an indication that the Twins were turning things around or establishing momentum for the next season. Today, two out of three games spawns several debates on how Minnesota can fix its shortcomings.
It’s a welcome turn of events for the Twins as they look to rebound after dropping two of three games to the Boston Red Sox earlier this week. In a series where they simply didn’t look like the dominant team they have been for the first three months of the season, it’s a fair discussion to wonder if the cracks are starting to show on a team that may be the biggest surprise in baseball.
How do you fix a team that is going through a slump with the current roster they have? Bring in the American League Central.
For the second weekend in a row, the Twins will square off against the Kansas City Royals. Last weekend, the Royals made things interesting with some strong starting pitching, but couldn’t keep up with the loaded Twins lineup as Minnesota took two of three games.
The Twins will look to do the same thing this weekend as they look to continue their dominance in a weak division. If Minnesota can find itself in the fountains of Kaufman Stadium, it may be the boost they need to get back to their former selves.
