Play: Kansas City -138 (Ventura vs. Barnes)
Time: 7:10 p.m. ET
Reasoning: Yordano Ventura is unbeaten in his last five and he is coming off of a seven-inning performance against the Angels in which he permitted two runs and struck out seven. Matt Barnes will make his second career start and he allowed six runs over five innings in his debut against Cleveland. In 21 relief appearances Barnes went 2-3 with a 5.64 ERA. Royals relievers haven't allowed a run in their last 18.2 IP. They have a 2.36 ERA and Boston's bullpen has a 4.30 ERA. Red Sox relievers have a 7.76 ERA in their last 10. Kansas City scores nearly one more rpg vs. RH and Boston scores nearly a half-run fewer per game against righties.
Play: Cincinnati -116 (Delgado vs. DeSclafani)
Time: 7:10 p.m. ET
Reasoning: Randall Delgado has been great out of the bullpen, but here he makes his first start since last September. He has lost three of his four career starts against the Reds and has a 6.08 ERA in three outings at Great American Ball Park. Anthony DeSclafani has posted five straight quality starts and he allowed just two runs in six innings against the Dodgers in his last turn. Cincinnati relievers have a 1.47 ERA in their last 10. And Joey Votto has been hot, hitting safely in nine of his last 10. Over that span he is 15-for-37.
