I’m currently 7-1 in my last eight selections, props, six and four in my last 10 selections. Did drop a massive play two days ago. had a nerfy in that Washington National Cincinnati Reds game. Got absolutely lit up four nothing in the first inning and then from that point it just turned into an absolute blood bath. It was a terrible call. The edge was there. The ratio was there. It just didn’t turn out in our favor. MLB right now 5 and2 in my last seven selections for nearly $1,000 in profit nearly across every single sport right now. We are on a bit of a tear I will say.

We’ve got the Kansas City Royals rolling into Chicago to play the Cubs. The Royals coming into this game three games below 500 with a record of 49 and 52. Currently sitting at third in the AL Central. They are fighting though for a spot. I will say that’s an open division by all means. The Chicago Cubs on the other hand 59 and 41. Currently sitting at second in the NL Central going back and forth with the Milwaukee Brewers right now. Going into this pitching matchup, it’s a very strong one. We’ve got Seth Lugo on the bump for the Royals here. Lugo, he’s 6 and5 on the year. They don’t hit behind him. He’s got a 2.94 RA, 107 innings of work, a 1.08 whip, which is very strong, 93 strikeouts, and 30 walks. The thing for Lugo though on the season right now is he does pitch worse on the road. He’s got um 49 innings of work on the road this season with a 3-2 record and a 3.49 ER, which is still very good numbers, but you have to remember he’s going up against the best offense in all of baseball on their own home field during day games. Going to the other flip of the coin, Colin Ray gets the start here for the Cubs. He’s been sensational this year. They do hit behind him. He’s 8 and three on the air with a 3.80 RA. 97 innings of work and 70 strikeouts, 27 walks. Very strong strikeout to walk diversification does Colin Ray have. And this season at Wrigley Field. He’s got a 3.92 RA with a 4-2 record. Cubs love to hit behind him. He pitches worse at home, but they still get it done. And I always tell everybody this and I’m going to say it again. You don’t bet against the Cubs during day games at Wrigley Field. We got another one on our hands here. Cubs at home day. Wrigleyfield. Colin Ray on the bump. Seth Lugo on the bump. I will say the Royals edge just a slightly more when it comes to this pitching advantage. Considering that Lugo is on the road, he’s still the better pitcher in my eyes in this matchup by far. I mean, I have to say. But with that being said, this Royals team, despite them scoring 12 runs in their most in game one of this set, they just can’t score runs offensively. That seemed to me just kind of like a little torque. From there though, I see them just coming right back to regression. They don’t have the power in their lineup. They don’t have the bats. They’re 29th in baseball and offensive runs per game, 19th in team batting average, 24th in slugging percentage, and 29th in home runs. Even when they get guys on base, they can’t knock them in. The Cubs, on the other hand, first in runs per game, averaging 5.3 runs, fourth in team batting average, and fourth in on base percentage. I believe this is going to be a one-sided game, but I also think that this market has this game trapped, and this total is too low. We have a current total sitting at 7 and a half runs. I believe we see this total go over that that total. I believe we’re going to see eight to nine runs at least in this matchup. Wrigley Field balls fly out. Fans get crazy. It’s offensive war. And then in this matchup as well, you know, we have to back the Chicago Cubs here at home in this situation, especially with Colin Ray on the bump still with that 39 RA at home. That’s still very, very strong. On top of that, I’ve already broken down how potent this offense is. So ladies and gentlemen, my free play for you guys, same game parlay, is we’re going to be dr dr dr dr dr dr dr dr dr dr dr dr dr dr dr dr dr dr dr dr drilling the over total runs in this matchup as I believe the market price is too low as well as we’re going to back the Chicago Cubs here on the money line as that is our safest play here. So take this however you guys please. If you guys like the total opposed to the side, we then take the total. If you like the side opposed to the total, we’ll then play the side. But as always, that is my same game parlay to you. This is Griffin Murphy from docsports.com. Bass of luck to you guys tonight.
