Premium Pick
1 unit on Kansas City +1.5 runs -125 (runline) (risk 1 to return 1.8)
Result:
LOSS

The Houston Astros have rebuilt their team to the point where they are carrying the best record in baseball at 41-16. That is a pace that for the most part is unsustainable. I say that because over the last 12 years any team that has a winning percentage of better than .670 after 54 games (1/3 of the season) have an ROI playing against them of +7.2%. That number doubles if you consider the run line to +14.3%. The Royals dug themslves a deep hole, finishing April at 7-16 while scoring just 2.74 runs a contest. They are an under the radar 17-15 since, scoring 4.09 runs per game. This combination puts the value in this contest. Play the Kansas City Royals on the Runline.
