Kansas City Royals(-1.5) @ Detroit Tigers
DK +102
FD +104
MLB Best Bet Season Record: FADE ME (82-107)
The Tigers are not particularly great. They're 52-57 and seemingly can't find any sort of consistently among the team. They sold at the deadline after 3 months of hitting when the pitching staff was getting worn out and twirling the pill while the bats went silent.
Meanwhile their division rivals to the south are making a push for the playoffs and are looking to maintain their playoff standing behind great starting pitching and some superstar bats buoying them. Seth Lugo is primed to get back on track. Lugo has been especially solid against the AL Central, where he's tossed 53.2 IP giving up only 8 runs, surrendering 36 hits, issuing 11 walks, and punching out 46.
Lugo's ability to twirl the pill combined with facing a bottom 10 offense by fWAR in the Detroit Tigers makes the Royals Best Bet worthy.
