    Something stinks with the KC Royal line

    Why is Santana only -127 at home against Joe 'gas can' Blanton
    Line s/be -142, Blanton has been a batting practice starter all year, Royals have fire power in their line up, and KC's starter (Santana) has rock solid across the numbers this season.
    Come on 2.77 ERA 44 K's and an outstanding 1.07 WH/IP makes you take notice, he pitches very well at home, compare that to Blanton's 0-7 record 6.62 ERA and a piss poor almost 2 base runner (1.97 ratio) per inning WH/IP.

    Sure LA can rake, so can KC, but Santana has allstar game numbers, Blanton should have been demoted so far by now.

    I think -127 (s/be -142) is a gift here, but I am leery. Very skeptical.

    I am not from the 'I am leary because it looks too good school' and I am on KC. My only worry is that Santana's last few games he hasn't looked quite so darn dominant. I am sure that is why the line leans that way....

    I am also on the over....which I am more worried about that the actual game.

    It's Blanton but Angels seem to have got it together. Books may realize this...and the Royals just had a pretty pathetic outting against the Astros so their nothing special.

    KC been horrific last couple weeks. 4 straight series I believe they have lost vs Balty, Yanks (sweep), Oakland, Houston (ugh). Halos looking better but who can trust Blanton? Slight lean to KC here at home.

    A) KC can't hit the broad side of a barn lately.
    B) Angels know Santana well. Santana knows the Angels well. Who has the advantage?

    Halos bats have been red hot, public split, I'm on KC,
    I expect KC to be able to hit Blanton fairly well, Over also
    looks tempting.

    doesn't really matter when Blanton is on the mound. Vegas got a lot of people today, i'm sure.
