MLB Run Total Best Bet: Monday June 27th

The Kansas City Royals will play host to the Texas Rangers on Monday and we might have to give out a heavy-betting alert to get the week started. Kris Bubic is being allowed to pitch again and our resident MLB expert Ej Garr expects him to deliver us from evil and cash the Rangers team total with another 1st 5 inning offer with plus money!

Seriously, the line setters decided to give away some money today and we don’t get to say that all too often. Why do I feel that way? 

Oh, well, I will tell you that I first wanted to feed the ‘Fade Lucas Giolito Fund’ but the Angels are a mess and that fight yesterday was insane. If you didn’t catch the bench-clearing brawl in Sunday’s Seattle LA Angles game you should search it out because it was 3 minutes of madness.

So, when I saw Kris Bubic was being allowed to take a Major League Baseball mound again I knew we had another fish to fry today. The line setters at pinnacle are offering 2.12 for the Over 2.5 runs through the 1st 5 innings and I saw that and about spit up my soup. What? Wait, what? 

You’re telling me that if Kris Bubic gives up 3 runs before we get to the sixth inning we would be walking to the window with an early payout? Nah, come on, that’s like telling me if I put my socks on this morning my breakfast will make itself and I will find 300 sterling pounds in my glove box that someone just seemed to leave there.

The ERA of 7.31 for Bubic might give you a little hint as to the first reason we’re playing this gem, and then you go over some of the defensive stats for KC. First of all, losing their all-mighty catcher this week to surgery is going to be a disaster for the Royals rotation because that dude controlled the flow and called the game. Now, with Sal Perez on the shelf, that means Bubic will be working with an unfamiliar battery mate that could lead to even more issues.

MJ Melendez is going to try to fill Perez’s shoes but let’s just call it what it is and say he can’t do anything that Sal was doing behind the dish and at the plate. The 6 home runs this season show some power but he has 1 RBI since June 11 and only one extra-base hits over his last 13 games. 

This game will be an easy Texas win and I cannot believe that 1.75 is all the oddsmakers want for that too. I am not a fan of juice/vig, but I know plenty of people who can find value in Texas on the road today because Bubic is a mess and the Royals give up over 5 runs a game. So, I mean how about a trio of options because the Texas Team Total FT is 4.5 and I am seeing 1.95 for that.

You can play the Texas 1st 5 total which I am offering as the best bet of the day, the Texas FT Team Total O4.5, or just Texas ML if you have the time and money to invest in any of those options. So, I hope you take advantage of some good choices and the fade of Bubic pays us again. I wish I was still playing again just to get a crack at the dude myself, but I’ll just settle for watching the Rangers get to him early and often.
