ASA top play on 10* Kansas City Royals +120 vs. Cleveland Guardians, 8:10 PM ET - We like the small dog here on the moneyline and predict a solid win by the home team Royals. The Royals starter Zach Greinke is not the pitcher he once was, but he’ll be good enough here versus a struggling Cleveland lineup. Greinke is 4-8 SU on the year with a 4.14 ERA and 1.35 WHIP. He has pitched better in his last three starts allowing 3 earned runs in 16.1 inning pitched. In the last 15-days the Guardians are hitting .234 as a team but producing just 2.51 runs per game. That’s a stark contrast to the Royals who have put up 65 runs in their last 12 games over 5.41 runs per game. Kansas City should maintain that run production against Cleveland starter Cody Morris who is 0-1 on the season with a 9.00 ERA. In his lone start, Morris, pitched 2 innings versus Seattle allowing 4 hits and 2 earned runs. Kansas City beat Cleveland 5-1 earlier this year with Greinke on the mound. Greinke went 5 solid innings allowing just 3 hits, striking out 5 and not allowing a run. After dropping the first two games of the series we like KC to get a home win here.
