Money Line: -138.00 Kansas City (Home)
Result: Win
This is an 8* SITUATIONAL PITCHING MISMATCH on the Kansas City Royals.

Detroit won the opener of this four game set on Thursday, but the Royals responded with a resounding 10-3 victory last night. With what we feel to be the superior starter backing it today, we look for the home side to find a way to get the job done at the end of the night. The visitors hand the ball to Matt Boyd (0-1, 4.91 ERA) who was shelled for six runs over 4.1 innings in a no-decision to the White Sox on Monday. Boyd has struck out 11 batters in June, but also walked eight. Note that Boyd has not done well in this spot at all this year, going 0-0 with an atrocious 8.68 ERA on the road. The home side counters with Edinson Volquez (6-6, 4.01) who would throw seven scoreless vs. the Indians on Monday, allowing two hits and striking out three. Note that Volquez has dominated in this spot all year, going 4-2 with a tiny 2.06 ERA in front of the home town crowd. With Detroit still trying to adjust without slugger JD Martinez in the lineup who injured himself on Thursday, it's a great opportunity for us to take advantage of. Lay the price on the ROYALS.
