Kansas City (Greinke) -145 at Seattle (Rowland-Smith)
Recommendation: Kansas City
All of a sudden, the Kansas City Royals are starting to play some pretty good baseball. Since reaching their low point of 14 games under .500 two weeks ago, the Royals have won eight of their last eleven behind a combination of solid pitching and timely hitting. KC took two out of three in LA against the Angels to open up their road trip, and then rallied to win again in extra innings here in Seattle last night. KC has legitimate momentum right now, giving us a prime opportunity to cash supporting them here. Zack Greinke is clearly back in the Cy Young form he showed last year. He’s got a 26:2 strikeout-to-walk ratio in his last four starts. Greinke has a 1.86 ERA in seven career starts against the Mariners.
