The Yankees burned me yesterday on a runline bet behind Gerrit Cole as the Royals were 6-5 upset winners. I'm going back to the Bombers here but on the moneyline. They will have red-hot catcher Gary Sanchez in the lineup after he sat Monday because Cole has his own catcher. Kansas City appears to have the starting pitching edge with Danny Duffy (4-3, 1.94), but the lefty is coming off the injured list after missing nearly six weeks and didn't even make a rehab start, so he can't possibly be out there too long. He also has a 5.00 career ERA vs. New York. Yanks starter Michael King (0-3, 4.08) simply needs to keep it close through five innings or so and then New York can pounce on the KC bullpen. Weird stat: NYY has won seven straight Wednesday games.

This looks to be the best hitting environment in baseball on Wednesday. I am seeing an expected weather-related boost to run scoring by over 10 percent, which is the largest of the day across MLB. Take into account that Yankees RHP Michael King has a 5.48 career ERA and Royals LHP Danny Duffy is making his first start in almost two months, and I think we see a good deal of both bullpens. Duffy, in particular, is not stretched out and may throw only 50 pitches. I'll go Over and expect some fireworks from the Yankees after they lost behind ace Gerrit Cole on Tuesday.
