1 Pick
2:10PM EST: NYY/KC Over 10.5 (2 Units).
This total's up high and for good reason. For starters each of the last 2 games between these two went over this total. As good as Yankees starter Nestor Cortes has been in Pinstripes, he has a 6.17 ERA in 7 road starts this season. He's allowed 4ER in 4 of his 7 road starts and 3ER in 2 others. His best road start of the year was 2ER over 5.1IP against the Angels. The Royals bats started to come alive yesterday, scoring 5 runs on 11 Hits and 6 Walks. They have the highest BA and 3rd highest OPS when playing at Home. They also have a .740 OPS vs LHP compared to a .722 vs RHP.
Alec Marsh starts for the Royals. Going back his last 3 starts he's allowed 4, 5, and 5 runs. He has an 8.1 ERA in 2 June starts allowing a .341 BA and 1.7 WHIP. He has a 4.4 ERA at Home this season and surrendered 8ER over 9.2IP in 2 starts against a much weaker Yankees offense last year. The Yankees are averaging just under 6.5 runs per game in June.
It's also very hitter friendly weather with over 92° Temps at the start of this game and 13MPH Winds blowing out to left center. With the way NY is slugging it's safe to say they'll be multiple Homeruns today.
