BULLPEN

The HOU bullpen has been very good at the back end, with top ten stats essentially across the board. Our hope here of course is that the Royals get to Peacock early and often, and wont need more than one or two runs max off the bullpen.

THE PLAY: KC TT O3.5

The Royals are on fire lately with a top 5 L7 team wOBA (.350). My MLBMA algo projects them to score 5.15 runs even after factoring a strong HOU bullpen. I’d love nothing more than an early KO after going 1-1 last night.
