Kansas City Royals vs Boston Red Sox (08-05-25) MLB Game Predictions, Picks and Best Bets
963 964 Ryan Burger coming over for the Padres’s in that Freddy Fine deal and the Royals at plus 202. Then we got Garrett Crochet and the Red Sox minus 235 total of 7 and a half with some juice to the over at minus 120. B let’s start here. I did Red Sox double results. I got this at plus 130. think I’m getting a good price on this. My only concern would be of course Burger has not been some trash can. Like this guy can get outs. Got a sub3 RA this year in limited innings. Not ton of innings. He started out as just a reliever then he kind of moved into that starter role with the Padres’s. But nonetheless, he’s certainly shown the ability to get through a few innings without allowing runs. So there’s concern there. But I think if the Red Sox get one early, that’ll be enough. Give me the Red Sox double result here plus 130. What do you think about this getting beat up? Yeah, I think that’s a great play. I have this Red Sox team, they are on fire and they look good to the eye because, you know, I had them yesterday first five and and they just look like oh my these batters were right on the ball and so hopefully that continues today. Uh Crochet number four base winner pitcher versus is it burge like French? I think Corbin needs to be the the decider of this or Burger uh like let’s let’s have a burger. I feel like you’re bury in San Diego, but you’re Burger in Kansas City. You think you’re like, let’s let’s have a good Kansas City Burger, right? So, good good call, Kyle. But anyway, I had this thing. It’s – 230 in the market. I’ve got it minus 316 and you just kind of look at the the stuff plus numbers between these guys. Crochet in the 96th percentile and Burge or Burger because he’s on the Royals, right? 11 percentile. And then Crochet, you know, Kyle, who’s got the highest strikeout percentage on the board, last 17 median. It’s probably Garrett Crochet, I’m guessing. It is Garrett Crochet, uh, at in the 96 percentile. It’s right around 30%. And then he is the second best pitcher today in hard hit contact allowed per nine. Now, you got that going for you. I I think it’s a it’s a big upgrade offensively. You’ve got the Red Sox 11th by my numbers versus the Royals at 21st. And then finally, the the last component, probably the most important component in my in my opinion, is the bullpin. Bullpin is uh third in in baseball, the Red Sox, and they’re going up against the Royals, 25th in baseball. So, you got all that stuff going for you. It’s the first leg of the base winner parlay for me, Kyle. Boston Red Sox full game. Uh I’m feeling for my guy Jacob Hefner out in the chat box. He did a lot of Kyle Schwarber slander yesterday. Schwarber went ham yesterday and he’s trying to double down in there. I respect it, I guess. But uh look, I I can’t help you out there because you’re strong. But I I I love that you’re doubling down and defending yourself out there in the chat box. Good luck to you out there. Uh Corp, what do you think of this game here? It screams Red Sox to me that my uh my concern is it’s almost too easy. Like wait, am I getting trapped into something here? Is something bad going to happen? I have a lot of trust issues with every single team, every single pitcher, every single hitter. It’s dark days emotionally for me in Major League Baseball. What do you think on this one here? Red Sox, Royals. Yeah, first on the Schwarber stuff, um, one of the cooler videos I’ve seen all year was the the like non-commentated volume of like the whole stadium cheering MVP and then him just absolutely crushing a grand slam. So, love him or hate him, he’s having a great season. Somebody talked about in the chat they got I think 40 to1 on an MVP which inevitably the Cesarian judges to win but would be cool. I think it’s a good thing. Otani in that league. Oh, sorry. Um yeah. Hey, it’s it’s Tuesday man. When you have when you have Friday through Monday off things happen. There’s a lot of days off. Yeah. What hasn’t happened is Garrett Crochet has not regressed at all. This guy is is just a dog. 31% strikeout rate. 224 Tuesdays. 224 expecting batting average. Uh, and I’m going to take a live bet here. I’m going to get the team the base winner said he thinks should be minus 300. Give me the double result. Red Sox. Red Sox plus 130. Bet us. That is a price that I will gladly play. Uh, I I like the breakdown of Bcher. I I Hey, in Kansas City, that’s just a burger to me. Every single time it’s a burger. He’s throwing some He’s throwing some meatballs anyways, so he deserves the name. 12% walk rate. Red Sox upward plus 13. Great price to play in this game. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Scorby and I are both going to take that Red Sox double result. We’re going to take that at plus 130. I I love that play. Go ahead. So, the proper pronunciation is Burger. Like I’m having a burger, but good. I mean, Corby, man, you did a good job on that. I know it’s a Tuesday, but that was Burger throws a lot of meatballs. That’s a great way to remember the pronunciation. He should teach He should teach sixth grade or something. Okay, guys. This is how you pron This is how you pronounce this word. It It’s Burger and he throws a lot of meatballs. That’s great. Yeah, that was low-key. You kind of nailed that there. Uh, well done. I didn’t even I was kind of reading the chat box here, seeing how we’re doing, seeing how our boys doing out there on the streets riding solo with the Schwarber slander, which none of us understand. But, uh, nonetheless, we’re a Red Sox panel today for purposes of the show. We’ve got the first leg of the base parlay taking the Red Sox on the money line. I’m taking the Red Sox double result and we got the live ad for Corby. He’s also taking the Red Sox double result and that’s sitting at plus 130. I I mean getting a back crochet at plus 130 feels good to me, especially against a selling Royals team on the road. Even if it doesn’t win, I still think the process there is is correct.
