Royals Betting Preview
Kansas City moved to 12-29 after losing to Milwaukee. The Royals came close last night, and they’ll look to avoid suffering the brooms the second time this month.. The Kansas City offense is scoring 3.35 runs per game, while batting .240, with a .302 on-base percentage. The pitching staff carries a 5.45 ERA, with a 1.44 WHIP. Vinnie Pasquantino had multiple hits in three of four games against Chicago, and he leads KC in batting (.298). Salvador Perez doubled twice in the series finale versus the Sox, and he leads the team in RBI (21).
Jordan Lyles (0-6, 6.20 ERA, 30 Ks) will get the call for Kansas City. The journeyman pitcher actually turned in a strong effort last week versus Chicago, striking out six while tossing a complete game, but he still endured his sixth loss of the season. Lyles has yet to pitch a quality start this season, but he’s been able to eat innings, and should be in for another 5-6 six inning start here unless he’s blown up. Lyles has only cleared five strikeouts in three of eight starts.
Brewers Betting Preview
Milwaukee moved to 22-17 after defeating Kansas City. The Brewers have now won three of their last four after dropping five to open the month of May, and they aim to complete the sweep dropped three straight series to open the month of May, and they need this manageable matchup with KC to go well this weekend. The Milwaukee offense is 4.83 scoring runs per game, while batting .239, with a .314 on-base percentage. The pitching staff carries a 3.74 ERA, with a 1.26 WHIP. Christian Yelich has recorded a hit in seven of the last nine games, and he leads the Brewers in hits (33) and runs (28). Rowdy Tellez and Willy Adames are tied for the team-lead in RBI (23), with the former leading the Brew Crew with ten home runs.
Colin Rea (0-3, 4.01 ERA, 19 Ks) will take the mound for Milwaukee. The eighth-year pitcher was pulled prematurely versus the Dodgers after finding trouble in the first inning. Rea has managed to go five full innings or further in his first five starts, and he should be able to bounce against a lowly KC lineup.
Kansas City vs Milwaukee Trends
Kansas City is 15-25 against the spread this season, with a 19-19-2 O/U record. Milwaukee is 18-21 ATS this year, with a 17-21-1 over/under record.
Corey’s Free Pick
Milwaukee needed a successful weekend to get back on track, and they have a good chance of wrapping things up strong here with a sweep. The Brew Crew should have success against the winless workhorse Jordan Lyles, it should come down their arms sealing the deal. Back Milwaukee to close this interleague set strong, and head into the week strong here.
