Chicago White Sox vs. Kansas City Royals
Leg #1: Royals Moneyline (-194)
The Royals have been off to a slow start. You could even say it’s been a disappointing start based on their high expectations coming into the 2026 season.
But there is some hope, and I think it’s only a matter of time before they really break out.
On the surface, the Royals’ team batting average of .228 (18th) looks bleak, but underlying metrics tell a different story. Their barrel rate (10%) is fourth, trailing only the Dodgers, Yankees and Braves. Their hard-hit rate ranks fifth-best in the league, trailing the Dodgers, Braves, Rangers and Astros.
Kansas City is making hard contact with the ball, just unfortunately not seeing the results. Yet.
The Royals lead the league in fly-ball rate, but only have 12 home runs. Positive Regression is going to come for this team sooner or later.
Leg #2: Michael Wacha 5+ Strikeouts (-115)
Michael Wacha is in a great spot to rack up strikeouts today because this White Sox lineup shows clear swing-and-miss tendencies against his pitch mix.
Against right-handed hitters, the group is striking out at a 23% rate, with multiple hitters well above that mark:
- Chase Meidroth: 26.7%
- Miguel Vargas: 27.3%
- Derek Hill: 38.9%
It gets even better versus lefties, where the projected bats carry a 31% strikeout or higher rate across several hitters:
- Colson Montgomery: 34.8%
- Andrew Benintendi: 33.3%
- Tristan Peters: 31.2%
At the time of this write-up, the lineup was not confirmed, but with nine White Sox hitters sporting a strikeout rate of 25% or higher, this seems like a good matchup for Wacha.
Wacha has hit this number in his last four starts against the White Sox, and in six of his last seven starts dating back to 2023.
Leg #3: Bobby Witt Jr. 2+ Total Bases (-136)
Erick Fedde has been more vulnerable to lefties, but even against righties, he's allowing a .273 batting average on the season and doesn't miss many bats (6.0 K/9), which puts more balls in play.
Bobby Witt Jr.’s recent batted ball profile jumps off the page - 70% hard-hit rate with a 60% line drive rate over his last 10 games, a perfect combo for extra-base upside. With Fedde allowing contact and Witt squaring balls up at a high clip, his total bases prop is a strong look.
