We won with Kansas City in this spot last night and we will go right back with the Royals for the same play but at a much better price. The Royals have been playing real well, going 5-1 over their last six games as well as 9-3 over their last 12 games. The road has not been as good as home but they are a respectable 20-25 in road games on the season. Seattle had been playing much better but it is once again slumping, going 1-5 over its last six games and with the loss last night the Mariners are.500 at home which is far from strong. Kansas City sends Kyle Davies to the hill and he has been a very risky proposition this season with his overall number but Kansas City is 8-8 in his 16 starts and that means money in the pockets as he has netted +4.4 units. Davies went through a rough six-game stretch but he bounced back like a champ, tossing a quality start against the Angels last time out and he can carry that into Wednesday. He has fared well against the Mariners with the exception of one bad game as four of five starts against Seattle have been quality performances including his best start of the season this year where he allowed no runs on one hit in six innings. The Royals are 4-0 in Davies’ last four road starts against teams with a losing record and 10-4 in his last 14 road starts overall. The Mariners go with Doug Fister and after a really strong start, some of the luster has worn off. He has been roughed up in his last three outings, posting a 7.71 ERA. That has dropped his season ERA to 3.22 and while still good, the fact that Seattle is just 5-7 in his 12 starts is not. His ERA drops to 2.39 in seven home starts but the Mariners are only 3-4 in those games. He faced the Royals once last season and was hit for five runs in six innings in an 8-4 Seattle loss. The Mariners are just 3-7 in their last 10 home games against teams with a losing record and 0-4 in Fister’s last four starts as a favorite. 3* Kansas City Royals
