(MLB) Kansas City vs. Houston,
Point Spread: -1.50 | 118.00 Houston (Home)
Result: Loss
This is a 10* RUN-LINE PLAY OF THE MONTH on the Houston Astros.

We feel that the talent discrepancy on the mound, combined with the Royals' issues at the plate absolutely justifies in laying the 1.5 runs for the near pick-em price.

Jason Vargas: The Royals are struggling offensively this year, which dosn't bode well for Vargas, who looked shaky in the spring, ultimately finishing with a 3.84 ERA. KC's bullpen has also been atrocious, in the season opening series loss to the Twins (0-3) its bullpen would allow 14 runs, all in the seventh inning.

Mike Fiers: He was 11-8 with a 4.48 ERA last year. Fiers is only in the starting rotation because Colin McHugh is injured, but he looked sharp this spring, posting a 2.42 ERA over 18.1 innings of work.

The bottom line: The Astros are getting production at the plate and have the superior starter on the mound. Play on HOUSTON on the RUN-LINE.
