MLB (967) OAKLAND ATHLETICS (J LOPEZ - L) VS (968) KANSAS CITY ROYALS (M LORENZEN - R)
Take: OVER the Total
The Oakland A’s face the Kansas City Royals at Kauffman Stadium this Saturday, June 14 in a matchup that appears to be a strong candidate for the over. The current game total stands at 9 to 9.5 runs according to oddsmakers which appears achievable based on recent performances from both teams.
Austin Wynns and Luis Urías hit two home runs which led the A’s to a 6-4 triumph on Friday night while Luis Severino pitched 7-innings allowing just one run . That 10-run total exemplifies what we've seen lately: Oakland's pitchers have struggled with a 5.63 ERA but their hitters produce enough power to generate multiple runs. Kansas City’s offense showed a brief flash of competence when it managed to score four runs during Friday’s defeat with Maikel Garcia achieving three hits and a double. The Royals pitching staff has displayed inconsistent performance recently with a particularly high team ERA of about 5.31 at home games despite their general solid pitching record.
Neither projected pitcher Michael Lorenzen (4-6, 4.94 ERA) for KC nor Jacob Lopez (0-4, 6.00 ERA) for Oakland provides much confidence in keeping this game under the total. Four out of the Royals' last five games have exceeded the total despite Lorenzen's inconsistent performance. The Oakland Athletics have recorded 39 out of their 66 total games as over games.
