Shane’s Free Pick

Boyd sits with an ERA of 6.21 and he’s going to really struggle in this game. The Royals offense isn’t exactly elite, but they are going to find a way to score at least five or six or six runs here and that is going to be the difference. The Tigers bats are also going to only score a couple of runs off of Greinke. Back the Royals on the money line.
