They are only six games ahead of the Oakland Athletics, one of the biggest dumpster fires in the history of American professional sports. The Royals do have a few things going for them, though, with one of them being that they have Aroldis Chapman, a veteran that rival teams seem to be ready to <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/mlb-rumors-royals-aroldis-chapman-trade-interest" rel="noopener">pony up assets for.</a></p><p>After an unceremonious end to his stint with the New York Yankees, Chapman has bounced back in a big way with the Royals. The 35-year-old. hurler has a 2.95 ERA, his lowest since 2019, as he gets more spin and juice on his pitches, resulting in an average exit velocity of just 84.2 miles per hour and a strikeout percentage of 38.5 percent. He makes just over $4 million, which should make him easy to move.</p><p>The Royals are not going to part with Chapman easily ahead of the trade deadline, according to Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic. They are <a href="https://theathletic.com/4587934/2023/06/07/mlb-trade-deadline-phillies-astros-guardians/" rel="noopener">giving teams two options</a> for acquiring Chapman in a trade.</p><p>The first option, according to Rosenthal, is to “Part with a better prospect package to gain control of Chapman for nearly four months of the regular season, rather than the two months a team would get by acquiring him at the trade Aug. 1 deadline.” Adding more prospects to a young core headlined by Vinnie Pasquantino and Bobby Witt Jr. would be extremely helpful.</p><p>The second option is to “Accept Chapman as part of a package with another Royals player, enabling Kansas City to shed payroll while ensuring a better return in a trade.” The Royals have some huge contracts they could offload, namely Salvador Perez and Jordan Lyles. Both players are key contributors, though, so the Royals would have to be ready to replace them in their depth chart.</p><p>Aroldis Chapman could be a <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/aroldis-chapman-trade-3-best-destinations" rel="noopener">good fit on many teams</a>. He is on a one-year deal, so Kansas City should be eager to make a trade, as they could lose out on his value after this season. We’ll see if Chapman ends up finishing the 2023 season on another team.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Bobby Witt Jr., M.J Melendez, and Nick Pratto all have three hits in the two games. However, the rest of the team has combined for just five. Pratto has the only home run for the Royals in this series. In total, Kansas City has five extra base hits. On the mound Zack Greinke and Mike Mayers have given up 11 of the 14 earned runs. The rest of the team has allowed just three runs on five hits in 8 2/3 innings pitched.</p><p>The Marlins are batting .269 in this series. Luis Arraez has raised his average above .400 as he has collected five hits in the two games. Joey Wendle has a respectable four hits, as well. Bryan De La Cruz and Jesus Sanchez have gone yard in this series. On the mound, Miami’s starting pitchers have given up five of the seven runs. Braxton Garrett gave up four himself. However, the Marlins have been able to keep Kansas City off base pretty well and they have 22 strikeouts in the two games.</p><p>Jordan Lyles will start against Edward Cabrera in this game.</p><p><b><i>Here are the Royals-Marlins <a href="https://sportsbook.fanduel.com/navigation/mlb" rel="noopener">MLB odds</a>, </i></b><b><i>courtesy of FanDuel.</i></b><b><i> </i></b></p><h2><b>MLB Odds: Royals-Marlins Odds</b></h2><p>Kansas City Royals: +1.5 (-140)</p><p>Miami Marlins: -1.5 (+116)</p><p>Over: 8.5 (-110)</p><p>Under: 8.5 (-110)</p><h2><b>How To Watch Royals vs. Marlins</b></h2><p>TV: Bally Sports Kansas City, Bally Sports Florida</p><p>Stream: MLB TV Subscription</p><p>Time: 6:10 PM ET/3:10 PM PT</p><p><i><b>*Watch MLB games LIVE with fuboTV <a href="https://www.fubo.tv/lp/mlb/?irad=377812&amp;irmp=492408" rel="noopener sponsored">(click for a free trial)*</a></b></i></p><h2><b>Why The Royals Could Cover The Spread</b></h2><p>Kansas City needs to rely on their offense in this game. Cabrera does not allow to many hits, but he does have a high walk rate. The Royals will need to lay off the pitches outside the zone and draw their walks. If they can get to Cabrera a little bit, they will have a chance to cover this spread. However, it is going to be up to the offense.</p><h2><b>Why The Marlins Could Cover The Spread</b></h2><p>Miami is facing a struggling pitcher in this game. Lyles is 0-9 on the season with a 6.89 ERA. Lyles has allowed less than four earned runs just three times in 12 starts this season. He allows opponents to slug .531 off him this season, so he gives up a lot of extra base hits. Lyles can not find a way to miss barrels and get people to whiff. The Marlins should be able to hit the ball around the yard in this game.</p><p>The Marlins offense has the sixth best batting average in the MLB. With them facing Lyles, there is no reason the Marlins should not rack up double-digit hits. Lyles has also given up 17 home runs this season, so the Marlins will get their fair share of pitches of the heart of the plate. As long as they can capitalize, they will cover the spread.</p><h2><b>Final Royals-Marlins Prediction &amp; Pick</b></h2><p>The Royals are 0-12 when Lyles pitches and they have lost 11 of those games by two or more runs. Do not expect anything different in this one. The Marlins should be able to take control of this game early and cruise to a series sweep while covering the spread.</p><p><b>Final Royals-Marlins Prediction &amp; Pick: Marlins -1.5 (+116), Over 8.5 (-110)</b></p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

They scored two in the bottom of the third, including a Luis Arraez RBI Double in the inning. It was the first of three hits on the night for Arrez, as he brought his batting average to .399 on the season. In the fourth inning, the Marlins scored four more runs, with another Arraez hit and RBI.

They are last in the majors in on-base percentage, while being 27th in runs, 25th in batting average, and 24th in slugging. Salvador Perez has been the best bat in the offense so far this year. He is top 50 in the majors in batting average, RBIs, and slugging. He also had a very solid May, hitting .302 for the month while sending nine ball yards. Home runs have been a big part of his game this year. He is tied for 17th in the majors with 12 of them but has not hit one in nearly two weeks.</p><p>Joining Perez in having a solid year is Nicky Lopez. Lopez was hitting just .200 before going on the IL at the end of April. Since has come back he is hitting .316 and walked four times. He has not driven in a run yet since coming back, but that will change soon with how he is hitting. Finally, Bobby Witt Jr. continues to be a terror on the basepath. He has stolen 19 bases this year, including one yesterday. He is hitting better as of late as well, hitting .294 in the four games this month. If he can continue to get on base, he is always a threat to steal and manufacture a run.</p><p>Taking the mound today for the Royals will be Zach Greinke. Greinke is just 1-5 on the year with a 4.19 ERA. The last time out was a solid outing. He gave up just two hits and no runs in five innings of work. Still, he got the no-decision as he lacked run support. That has been the story of the last month for Greinke. He had a 2.30 ERA in May but went just 1-1 as his team failed to score for him.</p><h2><b>Why The Marlins Could Cover The Spread</b></h2><p>The Marlins are not a high-scoring team either. They are 25th in the majors in runs scored while sitting 15th in OBP and 19th in slugging. Still, they are 5th in the majors in batting average, and that is due to Luis Arraez. Arraez is first in the league with a .399 batting average, while sitting sixth in the league with a .945 OPS. In May Arrez hit .330, but since the calendar turned to June, keeping him from getting a hit has been near impossible. He is batting .579 this month in five games so far. He has nine RBIs already this month and has scored three times. Arraez is setting himself up to be an MVP candidate and if he can finish the season with a batting average over .400, he may get there.</p><p>Bryan De La Cruz is also having a solid season. He is hitting .300 for the season, which is 17th in the majors. De La Cruz has also started this month hot. He is hitting .333 in June, with five RBIs. He also hit another home run last night, which is his third in two weeks, and his eighth of the season. With this combination, plus the power of Jorge Soler, the Marlins’ offense can be potent.</p><p>Jesus Luzardo takes the mound for the Marlins in this one. He is 4-4 on the season with a 4.05 ERA. Last time out he struggled, as he gave up five runs in just 5.1 innings of work to take the loss. It was his second bad start in his last three. On May 21st Luzardo went five innings giving up six runs and two home runs in a loss. Still, he has. had some solid starts. In three of his last five starts, he has only given up one run.</p><h2><b>Final Royals-Marlins Prediction &amp; Pick</b></h2><p>With Zach Greinke, it seems assured the Royals will not score many runs. The Royals have struggled mightily to score runs when he is pitching. While they may have a chance to do that today against Luzardo, Luzardo has not put up multiple bad starts in a row for a while now. He should rebound from his last outing, and get the win.</p><p><b>Final Royals-Marlins Prediction &amp; Pick: Marlins -1.5 (+130) </b></p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Check out our MLB odds <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/betting" rel="noopener">series</a> as we hand out a Royals-Marlins prediction and pick while we let you know how to watch, as well.</p><p>The Royals are in last place in the AL Central division and have the second worst record in the MLB. Salvador Perez leads the Royals in hits (58), home runs (12), and RBI (33). Bobby Witt Jr. has 10 home runs and 27 RBI this season as he is the second-best hitter on the Royals. As a team, the Royals have the sixth-lowest batting average in the MLB (.232) and have scored the fourth fewest runs (229). On the mound, the Royals have the fourth-worst ERA (4.99) and are one of three teams with less than 10 saves. The Royals starting pitchers have the fewest quality starts and are the only team with less than 10 quality starts.</p><p>The Marlins are in second place in the NL East division and have won seven of their last 10 games. Luis Arraez leads the Marlins offense with a .392 batting average and a .445 OBP. Jorge Soler leads the team in home runs with 17 and RBI with 36. As a team, the Marlins do not hit for much power, but they are batting .261. On the mound, the Marlins are bottom-10 in quality starts. However, they are middle of the pack in ERA, so Miami is not pitching bad this season.</p><p>Carlos Hernandez and Braxton Garrett will take the mound for their respective teams in this game.</p><p><b><i>Here are the Royals-Marlins <a href="https://sportsbook.fanduel.com/navigation/mlb" rel="noopener">MLB odds</a>, </i></b><b><i>courtesy of FanDuel.</i></b><b><i> </i></b></p><h2><b>MLB Odds: Royals-Marlins Odds</b></h2><p>Kansas City Royals: +1.5 (-142)</p><p>Miami Marlins: -1.5 (+118)</p><p>Over: 8.5 (-104)</p><p>Under: 8.5 (-118)</p><h2><b>How To Watch Royals vs. Marlins</b></h2><p>TV: Bally Sports Kansas City, Bally Sports Florida</p><p>Stream: MLB TV Subscription</p><p>Time: 6:40 PM ET/3:40 PM PT</p><p><i><b>*Watch MLB games LIVE with fuboTV <a href="https://www.fubo.tv/lp/mlb/?irad=377812&amp;irmp=492408" rel="noopener sponsored">(click for a free trial)*</a></b></i></p><h2><b>Why The Royals Could Cover The Spread</b></h2><p>The Royals are only using Hernandez as an opener. His longest outing this season is 2 1/3 innings. However, he is coming off a really strong month of May. His first outing in June was a tough one, but Hernandez had a 1.93 ERA in May and struck out 21 batters in 14 innings. If he can give the Royals a strong two innings to start the game, the Royals will be in good position to cover the spread.</p><p>The Royals hit about 20 points better against left-handed pitching. They are facing a lefty in this game, so Kansas City should be able to find some success. Braxton Garrett ranks below the 10th percentile in average exit velocity, hard hit percentage and xBA. He allows opposing teams to find a lot of success against him. If the Royals can wait back and drive the ball, they will cover the spread in this one.</p><h2><b>Why The Marlins Could Cover The Spread</b></h2><p>The Marlins have won seven of the 11 games Garrett has pitched in. He had one bad start in May, but other than that, he has been good. If you take out his May 3rd start against the Atlanta Braves, Garrett has 49 innings pitched, 44 hits allowed, 51 strikeouts to 10 walks, four home runs allowed, and an ERA of 2.57. Garrett has actually been pitching really well this season, he just has one bad start. If he can continue pitching well in this game, the Marlins will cover this spread pretty easily.</p><h2><b>Final Royals-Marlins Prediction &amp; Pick</b></h2><p>Hernandez has 24 appearances this season, but the Royals are just 4-19 in games he pitches in. Miami is a good team and have been playing well. Expect the Marlins to win this game and cover the spread.</p><p><b>Final Royals-Marlins Prediction &amp; Pick: Marlins -1.5 (+118), Under 8.5 (-118)</b></p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Heading to the contest, Lyles was 0-11 in his starts with the team, and so he was desperate for a win.</p><p>Unfortunately, it just seems like Lyles is cursed, with the Royals delivering another disappointing game despite having all the advantages in the world. Kansas City had fresher arms and legs after last playing on Tuesday, while <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/rockies-diamondbacks-prediction-odds-pick-how-to-watch-6-1-2023" rel="noopener">Colorado was coming off a series</a> against the Arizona Diamondbacks that ended Thursday.</p><p>Despite their clear rest advantage, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/rockies-vs-royals-prediction-odds-pick-how-to-watch-6-2-2023" rel="noopener">Kansas City still lost</a> to Colorado, 7-2. They were actually ahead 2-1 up until the eighth inning when the Rockies hit the Royals with six runs, highlighted by Elias Diaz’s two-run double.</p><p>With that, Lyles also made an unwanted record. Apparently, it’s just the seventh time in MLB history that a pitcher <a href="https://twitter.com/ESPNStatsInfo/status/1664829853709762561" rel="noopener">lost his first 12 starts</a> of a season, via ESPN Stats and Info.</p><p>For what it’s worth, however, Jordan Lyles isn’t the one to blame for the defeat. He actually had his best start of the 2023 season so far, and it was just that eighth-inning collapse that really doomed them.</p><p>Lyles pitched for five innings and ended up striking out eight batters. He only allowed two hits and one earned run in what was otherwise an incredible pitching for him. After he let Ryan McMahon take a solo home run in the first inning, he was actually sharper and appeared to be really determined to get his first win.</p><p>Too bad that it just wasn’t meant to be for him. Be it a curse or what, it’s hard not to feel bad for Lyles.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

It is time to take an exclusive look at our MLB odds <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/betting" rel="noopener">series</a> where our Rockies-Royals prediction and pick will be made.</p><p>After surprisingly winning back-to-back series over the Miami Marlins and the New York Mets, the Rockies decided to lay an absolute egg during their time in Phoenix that resulted in getting swept in four games by the Arizona Diamondbacks. To make matters worse, it appeared that Colorado was going to avoid the sweep as they entered Thursday’s series finale with a 4-3 heading into the bottom of the ninth before the D-Backs walked it off in the 5-4 win. Now ten games below .500 with a 24-34 record, the Rockies desperately need a solid start from RHP Chase Anderson to get back on the right track before it is too late.</p><p>As for the Royals, Kansas City has also endured a rocky start to the 2023 regular season. At the moment, the Royals are 17-39 and are in full-blown rebuild mode as they continue to get their young playmakers some experience so they can equip themselves with success later down the road. Most recently, the Royals lost in a low-scoring affair to the Cardinals in a 2-1 defeat in St. Louis. Getting the starting nod will be Jordan Lyles who is a horrendous 0-9 with a 7.30 ERA.</p><p><b><i>Here are the Rockies-Royals <a href="https://sportsbook.fanduel.com/navigation/mlb" rel="noopener">MLB odds</a>, </i></b><b><i>courtesy of FanDuel.</i></b><b><i> </i></b></p><h2><b>MLB Odds: Rockies-Royals Odds</b></h2><p>Colorado Rockies: +1.5 (-192)</p><p>Kansas City Royals: -1.5 (+158)</p><p>Over: 9.5 (+100)</p><p>Under: 9.5 (-122)</p><h2><b>How To Watch Rockies vs. Royals</b></h2><p>TV: AT&amp;T SportsNet Rocky Mountain</p><p>Stream: MLB.TV</p><p>Time: 8:10 ET/5:10 PT</p><p><i><b>*Watch MLB games LIVE with fuboTV <a href="https://www.fubo.tv/lp/mlb/?irad=377812&amp;irmp=492408" rel="noopener sponsored">(click for a free trial)*</a></b></i></p><h2><b>Why The Rockies Could Cover The Spread</b></h2><p>At first glance, the Colorado R0ckies enter this weekend’s slate in Kansas City with a record of 27-31 against the spread but are at least coming off a cover of the Diamondbacks on Thursday despite the loss. However, the Rockies are playing some bad baseball currently, and something drastically needs to change in order to string together a solid performance on the road versus the Royals.</p><p>To begin, there is no question that Colorado needs to find consistency at the plate as the road team in this one. Throughout Colorado’s franchise history, the Rockies often have struggled to score runs away from Coors Field. Overall, they do happen to possess the seventh-highest batting average at .261, but they only generated ten runs in four games against Arizona as they ultimately ended up getting swept. Clearly, jumping off to a hot start in the early frames of this one will be critical in Colorado’s pursuit of covering the spread.</p><p>Similarly to the Royal’s recipe for success later this evening, it will turn out to be the Colorado Rockies pitching staff that will be tasked in holding Kansas City at bay. As a whole, this is a unit that has scuffled in a large way as their continued swelling 5.25 ERA is the second-worst mark in all of baseball. Whether it’s walking batters at an absurd rate, hanging extremely hittable pitches with two strikes in the count, or simply allowing far too many long balls, the Rockies obviously need to tighten the screws in a big way to take care of business on the road.</p><h2><b>Why The Royals Could Cover The Spread</b></h2><p>Right off the bat, the biggest advantage that the Kansas City Royals hold over the Rockies is the fact that they have had a rare two days off. Believe it or not, the Royals did not play a game on Wednesday or Thursday as they should be extremely well-rested to give the Rockies their all.</p><p>In addition, while the arms and bats will be far from fatigued, the best part of Kansas City’s game comes in the form of their 2015 World Series champion catcher in Salvador Perez. While KC’s overall statistics tend to suffer at the plate and from the mound, it has been Perez who has seen a resurgence in his game as he leads the club with a .284 batting average, 12 home runs, and 32 runs-batted-in. Even more so, the 33-year-old backstop has recorded multi-hit performances in three of his last five games and could make a huge impact on Friday night’s game.</p><p>Simply put, even a solid outing from Perez will be all for not if Jordan Lyles cannot figure out how to record outs consistently. In shocking fashion, Lyles has only surrendered less than four runs twice all year and has given up a total of 26 runs in his five previous starts. In fact, Lyles is well on track to become the first 20-loss starting in close to two decades. With his starting job on the line, Lyles needs to string together a dominating outing versus his former team in order to get the losing monkey off his back.</p><h2><b>Final Rockies-Royals Prediction &amp; Pick</b></h2><p>While this may not be the most satisfying matchup on paper, it makes sense to side with the underdog Rockies to cover the spread as they should be able to get after Lyles in a big way.</p><p><b>Final Rockies-Royals Prediction &amp; Pick: Rockies +1.5 (-192)</b></p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Mike Mayers threw six innings and allowed two hits while striking out three in the 7-0 win. Nolan Arenado broke up the perfect game in the eighth inning with a single off Mayers. At the plate, Kansas City collected 16 hits. Nicky Lopez had four of those hits while Vinnie Pasquantino and Nick Pratto had three hits each. Bobby Witt Jr. and Michael Massey went yard in the win.

This is because he has only walked eight batters in 57 1/3 innings pitched. Greinke will pound the strike zone and try to get hitters to chase and get themselves out. On the year, Greinke ranks above average in chase rate, so he relies on hitters to make weak contact on pitches out of the zone. The Cardinals are middle of the pack when it comes to chasing pitches, but they make a lot of contact on pitches outside of the zone. This will hurt them more than you think because it is very hard to make consistent hard contact when chasing pitches.</p><p>Mikolas has an xERA of over 5.00 and an xBA of almost .300 on the season. That means the defense has been really helping him out. He has an above average barrel and solid contact percentage, so hitters tend to see the ball well off him. Kansas City put up 16 hits in game one of this series, and Mikolas is a very hittable pitcher. If the Royals can smack the ball around the yard, they should be able to cover the spread.</p><h2><b>Why The Cardinals Could Cover The Spread</b></h2><p>It is no secret that Mikolas is struggling this season, but he has been very good in the month of May. He has thrown 30 innings, allowed 27 hits, struck out 19 while walking only five, and owns a 2.40 ERA. He has the hot hand on the Cardinals pitching staff and can easily pitch them back into the win column. St. Louis has won the last four games Mikolas has started, so he gives them a great chance to win. If he can have another good game in this one, expect the Cardinals to cover the spread.</p><h2><b>Final Royals-Cardinals Prediction &amp; Pick</b></h2><p>Greinke has a May ERA below 3.00 and the Royals are hitting .286 in their last six games. As mentioned, Mikolas does have the hot hand, but I expect this game to be pretty close. The Royals should be able to cover the spread, even if they do not win.</p><p><b>Final Royals-Cardinals Prediction &amp; Pick: Royals +1.5 (-128), Over 9 (-102)</b></p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

With two outs in the bottom of the ninth, Michael Massey drove in the game-winning run to avoid the sweep at the hands of the Nationals. The Royals are in last place in the AL Central at 16-38 on the year. They have won just four of their last fifteen games, struggling on offense in the process.</p><p>The Cardinals are in fourth in the NL Central this year with a 24-31 record on the season. They just dropped two of three while visiting the Cleveland Guardians, and have been on a streak of winning one game, and then losing the next. In each of their last eight games, they have alternated wins as losses in that time. They are hoping to get back on the winning side this afternoon, coming off a ninth-inning loss to the Guardians yesterday.</p><p><b><i>Here are the Royals-Cardinals <a href="https://sportsbook.fanduel.com/navigation/mlb" rel="noopener">MLB odds</a>, </i></b><b><i>courtesy of FanDuel.</i></b><b><i> </i></b></p><h2><b>MLB Odds: Royals-Cardinals Odds</b></h2><p>Kansas City Royals: +1.5 (-110)</p><p>St. Louis Cardinals: -1.5 (-110)</p><p>Over: 10 (-105)</p><p>Under: 10 (-115)</p><h2><b>How To Watch Royals vs. Cardinals</b></h2><p>TV: BSKC/BSMW</p><p>Stream: MLB.TV</p><p>Time: 2:15 PM ET/ 11:15 AM PT</p><p><i><b>*Watch MLB games LIVE with fuboTV <a href="https://www.fubo.tv/lp/mlb/?irad=377812&amp;irmp=492408" rel="noopener sponsored">(click for a free trial)*</a></b></i></p><h2><b>Why The Royals Could Cover The Spread</b></h2><p>The Royals need to figure out how to score. They are 26th in the majors this year, scoring just 213 runs this year. At the same time, they are 25th in the league in batting average while sitting dead last in the majors in on-base percentage. This team is led by Salvador Perez. Yesterday’s game was the first in five games that he has not driven in a run. He has 32 RBIs on the season which is tied for 33rd in the majors. He has 19 of them this month, hitting .299 on the month. Hitting hot over the last week is Michael Massey. The second baseman is hitting .375 over his last six games, with two RBIs. He also has a .444 OBP in those games. This month has seen Massey his .308, with ten runs driven in.</p><p>The Royals will be hoping for continued production from Vinnie Pasquantino. While hitting only .227 on the month, he does much better against right-handed pitching. He is hitting .257 against righties this year, with eight home runs and 18 RBIs. Pasquantino has just one RBI in his last five games but will be looking to get a few today.</p><p>Starting today for the Royals will be Josh Staumont. Staumont has yet to make a start this year and is a primary reliever. It is most likely he will be used as an opener in the game today. He has pitched well so far this year. This year he has pitched 17 innings with nine earned runs. He has been striking out a lot of batters, striking out 21 in those 17 innings of work. He struggled in a game against the Nationals giving up four runs in an inning, but the next time out, he went .2 innings with just one hit given up.</p><h2><b>Why The Cardinals Could Cover The Spread</b></h2><p>The Cardinals can hit bombs. They are fifth in the majors with 76 home runs this year, while also hitting .257. That batting average has them sitting at 11th in the majors, while their on-base percentage is seventh in the majors. Nolan Gorman is the leader of the team with 13 home runs this year. Gorman is hitting .299 on the month with seven home runs and 18 RBIs. He is hitting better against right-handed pitching this year. He is hitting .285 with righties this year while also hitting 11 home runs and 36 RBIs.</p><p>Also hitting bombs against right-handed pitching is Paul Goldschmidt. Goldschmidt is hitting .288 against right-handed pitching this year with nine home runs and 20 RBIs. He has hit six home runs this month with 12 RBIs and an OBP of .395. On the year, he has an OPS of .925 which ranks 11th in the majors, and a batting average that is 20th in the majors. In the last week, he is hitting .304 with a 1.147 OPS. Also hitting strong is Brendan Donovan. Donovan is hitting .316 in his last seven games, with an OBP of .500.</p><p>Making his fifth start of the year will be Adam Wainwright. Wainwright is 2-0 with a 6.33 ERA on the season. He has struggled this year, not yet completing six full innings of work in a game. He has given up four home runs in each of them as well, although in one of the games it was just two earned runs with three unearned. The Cardinals are 3-1 when Wainwright starts, with the only loss coming in a ten-inning loss for the Cardinals.</p><h2><b>Final Royals-Cardinals Prediction &amp; Pick</b></h2><p>The Royals are the second-worst team in baseball this year. They are 8-17 on the road this year and overall have a -76 run differential. That is also the second worst in the majors. The Cardinals are 11-15 at home but have a positive run differential overall. Still, this is a matchup of two of the worst teams in baseball. The Cardinals are playing much better than the Royals as of late. Still, with Wainwright on the mound, there is no telling how this will play out. The best play is to take the over in this one.</p><p><b>Final Royals-Cardinals Prediction &amp; Pick: Over 10 (-105) </b></p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Join us for our MLB odds <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/betting" rel="noopener">series</a> where our Nationals-Royals prediction and pick will be revealed.</p><p>Entering play with a 21-29 record, the Nationals are fresh off of a 107-loss season a year ago and are clearly in rebuild mode. However, Washington has proven so far this season that they are a much-improved group and are headed in the direction that they want to be. After losing 8-6 to the San Diego Padres on Thursday, it will be up to the left-handed veteran in Patrick Corbin who is 3-5 with a 4.47 ERA on the year.</p><p>On the other side of things, the Kansas City Royals are also an organization that is trying to rebuild their team with young and talented prospects with the hopes that they can contend in the not-so-distant future. Unfortunately, the Royals come into this Friday night with a 15-36 record which is one of the worst records in all of baseball. Nevertheless, Kansas City will send out Jordan Lyles in an attempt to stop the bleeding even though the right-handed hurler is a horrendous 0-8 to go with a 7.15 ERA in ten starts on the season.</p><p><b><i>Here are the Nationals-Royals <a href="https://sportsbook.fanduel.com/navigation/mlb" rel="noopener">MLB odds</a>, </i></b><b><i>courtesy of FanDuel.</i></b><b><i> </i></b></p><h2><b>MLB Odds: Nationals-Royals Odds</b></h2><p>Washington Nationals: -1.5 (+146)</p><p>Kansas City Royals: +1.5 (-176)</p><p>Over: 9 (-122)</p><p>Under: 9 (+100)</p><h2><b>How To Watch Nationals vs. Royals</b></h2><p>TV: N/A</p><p>Stream: MLB.TV</p><p>Time: 8:10 ET/5:10 PT</p><p><i><b>*Watch MLB games LIVE with fuboTV <a href="https://www.fubo.tv/lp/mlb/?irad=377812&amp;irmp=492408" rel="noopener sponsored">(click for a free trial)*</a></b></i></p><h2><b>Why The Nationals Could Cover The Spread</b></h2><p>Having not squared off with the Royals since the 2019 season, don’t be surprised if the Nationals’ gameplay is to introduce themselves with a rude awakening. If there is one thing that the Nationals need to take care of in order to cover the spread this evening, it will end up falling on the shoulders of their southpaw twirler in Patrick Corbin. Believe it or not, despite what the numbers show, Corbin has been especially sharp of late. In fact, when looking at what went right in his last four starts overall, it is Corbin that has recorded four quality starts in a row and is turning back the clock in a big way. Furthermore, it has been the Nationals that have often struggled at times from the plate, so there is no doubt that Corbin could be Washington’s one-way ticket to covering the spread.</p><p>In addition, the Nationals will need a valiant effort from third-baseman Jeimer Candelario who has been hotter than fish grease as of late. Believe it or not, but Candelario is 17-39 over the course of his past ten games and has been a vital part in helping the ‘Nats offense slightly come back to life. If he can continue his current hot streak, then watch out Nationals bettors!</p><h2><b>Why The Royals Could Cover The Spread</b></h2><p>In order for the Royals to find a way to cover the spread, they will have to put together a complete game given the fact that their margin of error will be extremely minuscule. However, there is no doubt that the Royals do have a few names throughout their lineup that can spell out trouble for the Nationals with one swing of the bat.</p><p>Obviously, due to the inconsistent ways of their starting pitching, Kansas City’s offense will need to get things going from the get-go. On paper, KC possesses bottom-five numbers in regards to overall runs scored, batting average, on-base percentage, and even slugging percentage. While this might not bode well for those planning on wagering a few dollars on the Royals to cover the spread, it is hard to imagine that longtime KC catcher Salvador Perez won’t have a say in this one at the plate.</p><p>Not only is Perez holding his own, but he is also leading the Royals in every major hitting statistic with his highly productive .280 batting average, his 11 home runs, and even his 28 RBIs on the young season. If this matchup turns into an offensive shootout, then Perez will need to be on his best behavior.</p><p>Above all else, the Royals’ chances of covering the spread will mostly be up to Jordan Lyles who is one of the worst pitchers statistically in all of baseball. Indeed, his 7.14 ERA is the highest mark among MLB pitchers as he also has surrendered a whopping 14 home runs to opposing hitters thus far.

This game will continue our MLB odds <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/betting" rel="noopener">series</a> with a Tigers-Royals prediction and pick while we let you know how to watch the game, as well.</p><p>Javier Baez has been hitting very well in this series as he has five hits in 10 at-bats. Matt Vierling has four hits in the series, including a home run. Baez and Vierling have combined for eight of the nine RBI for the Tigers. The Tigers do have 19 hits in the two games, but only two have been for extra bases. The Tigers have also drawn 14 walks in the two games. On the mound, Detroit has only allowed seven earned runs and all have been given up by the starting pitchers. The Tigers’ bullpen has thrown 7 1/3 scoreless innings.</p><p>The Royals are struggling at the plate in this series. Maikal Garcia leads the team with three hits while five batters have two hits in the series for the Royals. Jackie Bradley Jr., Salvador Perez and Vinnie Pasquantino each have a home run in the series. On the mound, the Royals have struck out 24 batters in the series. The starters for the Royals have given up six of the eight earned runs allowed while relivers have allowed two runs in 9 2/3 innings. The bullpen has also struck out 13 and given up just six hits.</p><p>The starting pitchers in this game are Matthew Boyd and Zack Greinke.</p><p><b><i>Here are the Tigers-Royals <a href="https://sportsbook.fanduel.com/navigation/mlb" rel="noopener">MLB odds</a>, </i></b><b><i>courtesy of FanDuel.</i></b><b><i> </i></b></p><h2><b>MLB Odds: Tigers-Royals Odds</b></h2><p>Detroit Tigers: -1.5 (+160)</p><p>Kansas City Royals: +1.5 (-194)</p><p>Over: 8.5 (-118)</p><p>Under: 8.5 (-104)</p><h2><b>How To Watch Tigers vs. Royals</b></h2><p>TV: Bally Sports Detroit, Bally Sports Kansas City</p><p>Stream: MLB TV Subscription</p><p>Time: 7:40 PM ET/4:40 PM PT</p><p><i><b>*Watch MLB games LIVE with fuboTV <a href="https://www.fubo.tv/lp/mlb/?irad=377812&amp;irmp=492408" rel="noopener sponsored">(click for a free trial)*</a></b></i></p><h2><b>Why The Tigers Could Cover The Spread</b></h2><p>Greinke has not been the strikeout pitcher he once was. This season, he has only 36 strikeouts in 52 1/3 innings. He has also allowed 56 hits in those innings. Greinke does a good job not walking batters, but that just means he throws a lot of strikes. He is in the bottom-10th percentile in xBA, xSLG, average exit velocity, and whiff percentage. Greinke does not miss a lot of bats and hitters tend to hit him hard. The Tigers should be able to hit the ball around the yard in this game, but they will need to pick it up offensively. If the Tigers can do that, they will cover the spread.</p><h2><b>Why The Royals Could Cover The Spread</b></h2><p>Boyd is not having a good season. He has a 6.21 ERA in 37 2/3 innings pitched and a 1.46 WHIP. In the month of May, he has given up 11 earned runs in 13 innings pitched. The Royals hit 34 points better against left-handed pitching. With Boyd struggling this season, the Royals have an opportunity to hit the ball around and produce some runs. If they do this, they will cover the spread.</p><h2><b>Final Tigers-Royals Prediction &amp; Pick</b></h2><p>These two teams are going to play a close game. Both pitchers have given up some runs this season, but Greinke should prove to be victorious in this one. Boyd is having a tough season and the Tigers are not great on the road. Expect the Royals to cover the spread and possibly even win the game.</p><p><b>Final Tigers-Royals Prediction &amp; Pick: Royals +1.5 (-194), Over 8.5 (-118)</b></p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

It is time to continue our MLB odds <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/betting" rel="noopener">series</a> with a Tigers-Royals pick, prediction, and how-to-watch.</p><p>Yesterday it was a three-run double by Javier Baez that gave the Tigers the win in the tenth inning. That was only the Tigers’ second win in the last five games, but at 21-24, they are sitting in second plan in the AL Central, just 2.5 games back of the Twins. The Royals have now lost eight of their last ten games, and are just 14-25 on the season. They are in last place in the AL Central, a full five games behind Chicago who is fourth.</p><p><b><i>Here are the Tigers-Royals <a href="https://sportsbook.fanduel.com/navigation/mlb" rel="noopener">MLB odds</a>, </i></b><b><i>courtesy of FanDuel.</i></b><b><i> </i></b></p><h2><b>MLB Odds: Tigers-Royals Odds</b></h2><p>Detroit Tigers: -1.5 (+106)</p><p>Kansas City Royals: +1.5 (-128)</p><p>Over: 9 (-115)</p><p>Under: 9 (-105)</p><h2><b>How To Watch Tigers vs. Royals</b></h2><p>TV: BSDET/BSKC</p><p>Stream: MLB.TV</p><p>Time: 7:40 p.m. ET/ 4:40 p.m. PT</p><p><i><b>*See how to watch Tigers-Royals LIVE with fuboTV <a href="https://www.fubo.tv/lp/mlb/?irad=377812&amp;irmp=492408" rel="noopener sponsored">(click for a free trial)*</a></b></i></p><h2><b>Why The Tigers Could Cover The Spread</b></h2><p>The Tigers do not score a lot of runs. They have scored 165 runs this year, which is last in the majors. They are also not in a position to score a lot of runs either, sitting 26th in batting average and 29th in on-base percentage. Yet, the Tigers are still finding ways to win games. Ten of the Tigers’ 21 wins have either been by one run, or in extra innings this year. Another five of their wins have been by just two runs. The Tigers find a way to get it done in close games this year.</p><p>Riley Greene has been getting hot recently. In May, he is hitting .368 with an OBP of .419. In that time, he has scored ten runs and driven in nine. When he has a hit this month, the Tigers are 9-0. When he fails to get a hit, the Tigers are just 2-6. Riley Green has been the cog that is making this machine run this month, and if he can pick up a few more hits today, it could mean another win for the Tigers.</p><p>Spencer Torkelson is also starting to heat up. On May 3rd Torkelson was hitting just .198 on the season, but he has raised his batting average to .235 as of today. He is hitting .275 this month and driven in ten runs. With him and Riley Greene, if they continue trending in the right direction, the Tigers could be able to contend in the AL Central.</p><p>Eduardo Rodriguez will be on the hill for the Tigers tonight. This year he is 4-3 with a 2.06 ERA. This year, Rodriguez has seven starts in which he has pitched at least 5.2 innings and given up one or fewer runs. In the other three starts, He has given up three or four runs and come away with a loss.</p><h2><b>Why The Royals Could Cover The Spread</b></h2><p>The Royals have not named a starting pitcher for todays game. It may not matter much as this is one of the worst pitching staffs in the majors. They currently have a team ERA of 5.22, with a 1.44 WHIP, both in the bottom five in the majors. The starters have been a major issue for the Royals. They have just seven quality starts in the year, which is last in the majors. With Zack Greinke slated to go tomorrow in the series finale, the Royals may employ an opener in this game. That may not be best for the future though. Greinke is older and may not be able to go deep into a game, so burning through the bullpen could have implications tomorrow.</p><p>For the Royals to get a win, it has to start with scoring. Salvador Perez needs to be leading that. He is the team leader in home runs and runs batted in this year. He is having a solid May, hitting .296 this month with 14 RBIs. Vinnie Pasquantino sits second in both RBIs and home runs forthe Royals. He has been struggling more than Perez this month. He is hitting just .224 on the month but has hit four home runs. Most of his runs driven in this month have been via home runs though, and the Royals need to put Pasquantino into positions where he can drive in runs, not off of the long ball.</p><h2><b>Final Tigers-Royals Prediction &amp; Pick</b></h2><p>With both teams struggling to score, the only way the over hits in this game is a random offensive explosion against a poor pitcher put out by the Royals. Still, the Royals do not have depth at the starting pitching spot, and that will be their downfall today. Without that depth, not having a starter due to injury will be an issue. The best pitcher for the Royals went just last night, and Greinke is going tomorrow, so options are limited. With that, take the Tigers to win and cover in this game.</p><p><b>Final Tigers-Royals Prediction &amp; Pick: Tigers -1.5 (+106) </b></p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
