This is a 10* TOTAL BLOOD-BATH on the OVER Royals/Red Sox.

These two teams have been involved in several lower-scoring games of late, including in Boston's 5-0 win yesterday, but I'm finally anticipating some offensive fireworks between these clubs on the final day of the first half.

Boston has now seen the total go UNDER in four straight after bouncing back from the Royals' 6-1 series-opening victory, while KC had seen the total go OVER in three straight before this series started.

Brady Singer has been decent for the Royals, and Brayan Bello has plenty of experience for the Red Sox, but I say this O/U line is now just a bit TOO low, brought on by public perception, but while the rest of the World goes one way with this total, I'm going full on contrarian and do now believe that the value has for sure swung the other way as far as the total is concerned here.

This number is low, the play is the OVER.

Good luck, NP
