Taking the ROYALS. How the heck do you lay this kind of number with the Yankees? Is that a joke? Look - Clarke Schmidt has not been terrible. He has actually been pretty respectable. But this New York bunch can not be trusted. Now KC is not a good team. In fact, I would say they are worse than Oakland since they actually have their top hitters called up from the minors. I would also say that they come in a steal a game in a series. The got one from Detroit, Tampa, Cleveland. Took 2 from the Dodgers. Yanks are 2-9 their last 11 games and have lost 4 in a row. This kid Marsh can strike some cats out. First start vs Dodgers 4 innings 5Ks 4BBs - 2nd start @ Twins 5 innings 5Ks 3BBs - 3rd start vs Rays 6 innings 11Ks 1BB. The New York Yankees, at home, are hitting .227 on the year. 3rd worse in all of MLB (1 Oak 2 Mets). 4* Money Maker KC ROYALS
