Usually wait for weather/umpire/lineup info for totals, but this seems far too high. Eovaldi doesn't have an estimators within two and a half runs of his 6.32 ERA (.444 BABIP, 50 GB%, 23.5 K-BB%). Royals had a 69 wRC+ v RHP before being one hit on Monday. KC has been one of the top defenses (6 Runs Prevented) early & TEX LU not the same w/o Seager.

TEX -115

$43.48

Eovaldi is a guy I’m going to be all over until the results start matching his under the hood numbers. Really like him here
