Kansas City is the better team in the matchup with the better pitcher. Harris may be decent for Oakland but their offense has dwindled down to non-existent again. This is the type of series that the Royals need to erase their last series against the Dodgers with. Their offensive hitting numbers are still good and they should be able to get runs off of Harris who has only started in four games, and once he leaves, they can get to the bullpen too. The Royals already swept the A’s earlier this season and this series should be similar. Marsh has been decent for the Royals and the bats will back him up in this spot against a team they love to beat up on. Oakland are 0-10 straight up in their last 10 games against an opponent in the American League Central.

Best bet: take Kansas City on the runline (RL).
