#921 ASA PLAY ON 8* Cincinnati Reds +100 over Kansas City Royals, Tuesday at 8:10 PM ET - The Royals have lost 7 straight games and, along with Oakland (18 wins also), are the only two teams in the league with less than 26 wins on the year. The thing is, Kansas City is now the worst team in the majors without a shadow of a doubt as there are no signs of life here. The Athletics have won 6 straight games and are showing signs of life but these Royals have lost 17 of 21 games including 7 in a row. We like the Reds no matter who the starting pitchers are in this one but will mention that KC is expected to start Jordan Lyles here. The right-hander is 0-10 with a 6.84 ERA and the Royals are 0-13 in his starts this season! The Reds likely starter is Brandon Williamson. He is a rookie but the southpaw has been respectable so far with holding opponents to a .240 batting average in his 5 starts. In this one, Williamson is taking on one of the weakest lineups in baseball and he is sure to take advantage. The Royals have scored just 2.5 runs per game in their last 11 games - a 1-10 stretch! The Cincinnati offense has been much better and that has helped lead the way to an 11-5 run on the road! Away from home, the Reds are averaging nearly 6 RPG in this 16-game stretch. We like them to have continued success here as the Royals have one of the worst bullpens in MLB too and look for KC to drop to 0-14 in games started by Lyles this season. Take the Reds on the road.
