Game Totals Pick
Under 9.0(+100)

The Chicago White Sox and Kansas City Royals finish a 4-game series on Sunday. This series has been dreadful if you like scoring, as it has had 3 straight games end 2-0. The Sox took the opener; the Royals the next 2. Indeed, this is not odd for these teams, as they are 2 of the bottom three teams in terms of runs per game so far this season. On top of that, there is a lot of weather in the area. It looks like the game will play, even if it starts late, but these do not seem like optimal scoring conditions. I will take the game total under 9.

The Royals will give the ball to Noah Cameron, a lefty who induces a lot of weak contact. The White Sox will call up Jonathan Cannon for his first appearance of the season. He will likely work behind an opener. Pitching aside, it is just hard to trust these offenses to do much. And it is certainly hard to trust both offenses to click on the same day. With the weak state of these lineups, coupled with the rainy conditions, this under seems really obvious (which is probably the reason we should be suspicious of it). Give me the under.
