Oakland +150 over Kansas City
4:10 PM EST. The A’s are pure rat shit. One has to be out of their mind to even think of wagering on this team. With a .200 batting average, .270 on-base percentage and .579 OPS, the A’s offense is on pace to be the franchise’s worst since at least 1908 and is in contention to be its worst of all-time. If the A’s score one run, it’s a fu**ing outburst.
We’ll say this for A’s fans…they’re different, all right. Rather than act like normal fans and be outraged over desertion, A’s fans have instead decided to display a kind of breathtakingly imbecilic tribalism and accuse anyone who ditches the team of not being true. Like being loyal to John Fisher is some kind of badge of honor. You’re not in a gang for fucks sake. Some sad haircut is fucking you over in broad daylight and you want bonus points for it? The point we’re trying to make here is that the A’s are a fu**ing disgrace but we don’t care. What we know for sure is that when Kansas City is a -170 favorite with Brad Keller pitching, we’re fading and we couldn’t give a rat’s ass if Oakland signed Rickey Henderson, Harold Bainess, Terry Steinbach and Carney Lansford for one game.
Brad Keller (KC - RHP) has started 13 games for Kansas City and has two wins and eight losses. The Royals are 4-9 in Keller’s 13 starts. Keller has a very weak swing & miss rate of 5.3% so even Ricky Henderson should be able to put the ball in play. We also love that Keller earned a seven-inning win last Saturday against the Athletics, allowing no runs on one hit. He’ll now face them for the second time in a week and we all know how that usually goes. Lastly, Kansas City is 26-43 overall but today they are priced like they are 43-26 and Keller is priced like he’s Gerritt Cole. It’s fu**ing insane already.
Our Pick
Oakland +150 (Risking 2 units - To Win: 3.00)
