Royals vs. Rangers

Scott "The Bulldog" Rickenbach MLB Game #971 Sunday Free Pick Kansas City Royals Money Line (+) @ Texas Rangers @ 3:05 ET - The Rangers burned me yesterday on a walk off home run as the Royals blew an early 3-0 lead and lost in extra innings. The Royals are poised to get pay back today as a sizable dog. Of course everyone is jumping on Cole Hamels and Texas as they opened up as a moderately priced favorite. Now they are moving into "big favorite" territory and the value here is too strong to ignore. Hamels overall numbers and recent numbers look good. But the Rangers southpaw has not fared well in day games and this is not just a short-term trend. These has been going on for 3 seasons now that Hamels is much better in night games than day games. The past two seasons he has a combined 1-5 record in day games and the past 3 seasons his cumulative number for afternoon games is an ugly 5.33 ERA! The Royals will get to him early and often and I know Kansas City's Jason Hammel has certainly had ups and downs this season but 3 of his last 5 road starts have seen him combine to allow just 3 earned runs in 22 innings. The Rangers are one of the weaker hitting teams in the league and lead the majors in strikeouts. I am going with the big dog value in this one as Texas drops to 2-7 this season in day games. Free Pick KANSAS CITY
