Game Analysis:
It’s the Royals versus Red Sox as the second worst team in the AL record wise will travel to Boston and visit legendary Fenway Park. White Kansas City has pretty much waved the white flag on the season the Red Sox are still very much in the hunt for a postseason spot. Here’s what you should know so you can responsibly make the most out of this sweet offer from our friends at BetMGM.
Yeah so sorry Kansas City fans but the Royals are simply put not good. In terms of runs scored and runs allowed the Royals are 29th and 28th in the entire league respectively. They allow 1.5 more runs a game than they score which for my non numbers people is a pretty bad stat. The team ERA is a whopping 5.14, team WHIP is over 1.40, and team OBP is just .297. Again, not good. Despite struggle they are 7-3 in their last ten at the time of writing, and the roster does have some bright spots. Maikel Garcia has been good hitting almost .285, despite not being an everyday player Freddy Fermin is hitting .296, and Carlos Hernandez has been more than serviceable on the mound. Will this be enough to upset the Red Sox?
Well if you asked me I would say no. Boston is better in almost every statistical category. They score more runs, allow less, get way more hits, have a significantly higher team batting average, OBP, SLG, OPS, lower ERA, WHIP, and lower batting average allowed. The Royals have been terrible on the road while the Sox have been solid at home, and Boston has over 20 more wins than KC. Duran, Casas, and Bello have been unreal breakout young players, and combine that with a solid core like Devers and Yoshida and seasoned veterans like Turner, Verdugo, and Paxton, boy oh boy you have a solid all around ball team. The Red Sox are still playing for the postseason while the Royals are out of it and they’re the better team. I like the Sox in this one.
The Red Sox are the better team in this matchup, so I’d (responsibly) rock with them, but bet on either team and get your own Friday Beers merch!
