The Mariners are 1st or 2nd in most statistical categories and the Rangers are 29th... look at Runs allowed seattle is 1st at 3.3, Texas is 29th at 5.0. Hits allowed 1st vs 28th, ERA Seattle 1st at 3.04 and Texas 29th at 4.71. Tonight we have Iwakuma ERA 2.90 vs Scott Baker 5.23. Texas has only scored 9 total runs over their past 6 games. Iwakuma has won 5 in a row, all by 2 or more runs and he has a 1.69 ERA vs Texas. The bottom line is Texas isn't scoring runs and Seattle isn't giving them up. ![]() 9/5/2014 7:05 PM MLB Baseball 918 New York Yankees* -122 vs Kansas City Royals for 1st 5 Innings J Shields - R Listed M Pineda - R Listed Risking 1.00 To Win 0.82 (Loss) 9/5/2014 7:05 PM Reduced Baseball 918 New York Yankees* -1½ +185 vs Kansas City Royals J Shields - R Listed M Pineda - R Listed Risking 0.50 To Win 0.93 (Loss) KC has won 4 in a row to begin this road trip, this is the perfect time for a setback, as they are facing Pineda who owned them last time out. Pineda has been fantastic since returning from injury. His fastball command has been giving opponents fits. Now I am taking the 1st half line for 1 unit as I like the Yankees to have the lead after 5 innings, the Yankees should be able to build a nice lead and I expect them to hang on, but if the game is close I have to give the edge to the KC Bullpen as they have been some of the best in the league this year. Looking at Shields he has been a solid starter for KC but hasn't faired well against the Yankees where he is 9-16 with a 4.33 ERA in 30 career starts. The Royals are 0-4 in their last 4 games as underdogs and they haven't played well vs AL East opponents lately either. Take the Yankees 1st half and put a half unit on the RL. Lets Get It Rob
