MLB Report - Monday
There was a sharp overnight money move in the American League on an Over/Under line and I agree with the move.
White Sox/Royals OVER 9 -105 (Buehrle/Meche) – 8:10 pm ET #916
Each of the past ten meetings in this series has seen a posted Over/Under line of at least 10 runs or more, but the oddsmakers are forced to set a low total for this game with two big name pitchers on the mound and we now get value as my pitcher performance ratings predict a below average outing for both Buehrle and Meche tonight.
Buehrle is particularly due for a letdown as he is coming off a no-hit performance last Wednesday and might struggle to regain his focus against a struggling Kansas City squad.
Both offenses started the season slowly, but have heated up during the past week. The White Sox have scored at least 5+ runs in each of their past five games and overall they are averaging 5.8 runs per game during that span. The Royals are also hitting well and have averaged 5.4 runs per game over the past week.
