As for Twins, I rate Berrios and Kennedy about equally bad, Kennedy's 3.66 ERA is a mirage based on his 4.59 xFIP, he has been extremely lucky with a .261 BABIP allowed and an 84.1% strand rate. That made Royals overvalued road favorites at the time of my bet as model has Kansas City 54% (-117), although Twins have taken a ton of money since then and are no longer bettable at current market.
