So the Royals are the +101 underdog at home against the Red Sox tonight. Doubront has steadily gotten worse his last 3 games giving up 1 ER to the NYY then 3 ER to the CWS and then 5 ER his last outing to OAK. The past 3 years his away ERA is 5.4 and his night ERA is 4.23. Sanchez has decent numbers against Red Sox hitters specifically holding Adrian Gonzalez to a .231 average and just 1 HR in 39 attempts. Sanchez also 3.78 ERA home and 3.82 at night. Also, Sanchez hold lefties to .199 averages which is good considering Big Papi is a looming figure. ANDDDD on top of these stats the Red Sox just had a long game against the Orioles which lasted the entire day yesterday and should definitely hurt the already weak Sox bullpen.
Royals +101
