    Can we pass up taking B Chen and KC at +168?

    Couple things

    KC and Det have played 10 times this year, KC is 6-4.
    7/10 games were decided by 1 run
    KC has seen Scherzer once this year, Det won 3-2
    Det hasn't hasn't seen Chen this year
    B Chen is 5-0 this year with a 1.62

    I know Scherzer is a great it her but I think Chen has been pitching amazingly well this year, especially of late. If you only see the box scores, you're not seeing how good he's been.

    Anyone have anything else?

    Hard to say. I do think KC can get to Mad Max, but Chen's always a crapshoot. Detroit has a penchant for struggling vs. soft-tossing lefties at times.

    I think it's nice value but Chen doesn't get the run support he deserves, which is why he has less than a 1.00 ERA in his last 6 starts but has only two wins notched on his record to show for it. Couple that with the opposing starter being Scherzer, the Under 7.5 is the play.

    Alright. I think if nothing else this is incredible value for both KC and Chen. Will probably lose 15-1 but its the same as losing 2-1 at least if its 15-1, my over cashes
