Kenny G leaned toward laying the –115 with Arizona, citing Eduardo Rodriguez’s recent dominance. Rodriguez has rattled off five straight gems, never allowing more than two earned runs, yet the D-backs managed only a 2-3 record because their bullpen sports an ugly 5.22 ERA. Kenny still prefers the Snakes, noting they rank third in both runs scored and on-base percentage and should improve on the modest 2-5-8-4 run outputs from the past four games. He expects a let-down from a Royals club that just played a draining series, carries a 20-23 road mark, and trends 24-18-1 to the under away from Kauffman. With Chase Field offering familiar confines and Kansas City priced at only –105, Kenny trusts the hotter starter and the better offense even if the relief corps makes it an adventure, passing entirely on the total.
