Cincinnati Reds @ Kansas City Royals: YRFI (-111)
The Elly De La Cruz era has begun in Cincinnati and the switch-hitting infielder is already making an immediate impact. De La Cruz has had at least 1 hit in each of his first 6 games and the Reds have gone 4-2 since his debut. There's no denying the fact the Reds have seen an immediate boost in production as they've put up 33 runs over their past 6 games. I'm expecting that to roll over into their series with the Kansas City Royals, who have now lost 6 consecutive games. Zack Greinke takes the ball for the Royals tonight and is pitching to a 4.59 ERA across 13 starts. May certainly went much better for the 39-year-old than April, but he's coming off a short start against the Marlins in which he allowed 5 earned runs in 4.1 innings.
