    Analysis

    We've reached the time of the season when it's time to fade Michael Wacha of the Royals. And if you've beaten me to it, you would've won your last six picks. Meanwhile, Foster Griffin has been on a roll for Washington, having allowed three or less runs in four straight starts. Also, Washington is 4-1 in his last five outings, with the one loss being an unimaginable 9-1 blown lead in San Francisco last Wednesday. Nonetheless, Kansas City's recent misery continues on Tuesday night with another road loss.

    Hits Allowed
    Picked: Jun 16 @ 7:43am

    Analysis

    DraftKings. Foster Griffin has stayed under this hits allowed line in eight of his 12 starts this season, including four of five home outings. After a three-year stint in Japan, Griffin returned to the US this season armed with a seven-pitch mix, with all but one holding opponents to under a .240 batting average. Overall, Grffin has held opposing hitters to a .212 average - and even if he does regress towards his expected .242 xBA, this is still a high line. The Royals are only hitting .239 as a team against lefties this season. And albeit a small sample, Griffin has been much stingier on five days rest (.196 OBA), which could be a product of how starters were deployed in Japan.

    Analysis

    Certainly not close to my favorite Brewers pitcher in Robert Gasser (0-3, 6.38 ERA), but his home splits are fairly better and the Brew Crew have a fully rested excellent bullpen behind him. This is mainly fading the Guardians now without All-Star third baseman Jose Ramirez for the foreseeable future. He was placed on the injured list Sunday and might miss eight weeks. Crushing news for the team -- but helps the White Sox in the Central! Tuesday starter Slade Cecconi has a 5.21 road ERA.

    Picked: Jun 16 @ 1:29am

    Analysis

    This is strictly a fade of Zebby Matthews, who is 0-3 with a 9.37 road ERA for Minnesota this season. On the other side, even though he possesses a 1-4 home record, Kumar Record has an ERA of 3.02 at Globe Life Field. After losing Monday's night's contest, I'll back the Rangers to even the series. And as a bonus pick, how about a sprinkle on Joc Pederson to take Matthews deep at +370 odds?
