After a tough loss yesterday where the Royals fell 8-3, they are looking to bounce back against a Mets team that has been performing well this season, currently sitting at 54-41.<\/p>\n<p>The Royals, with a record of 46-49, have struggled offensively, ranking 26th in MLB. Their pitching staff has shown some promise, particularly with Angel Zerpa, who, despite starting only 0 games this year, has a solid Win\/Loss record of 3-1 and an above-average ERA of <a href=\"https:\/\/evanalytics.com\/mlb\/player-stats\/earned-run-average\">4.03<\/a>. Moreover, Zerpa&#8217;s 3.30 xFIP suggests he has been somewhat unlucky and could improve as the season progresses. However, he is projected to pitch only 1.0 innings today, which raises concerns about his effectiveness.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, the Mets will send Frankie Montas to the mound. Montas has had a rough season, with a <a href=\"https:\/\/evanalytics.com\/mlb\/player-stats\/earned-run-average\">6.14<\/a> ERA and only 3 starts under his belt. His low strikeout rate and high earned run projection of 3.0 for today may work in the Royals&#8217; favor, especially given that they rank 2nd in the league for lowest strikeouts. This matchup presents an opportunity for the Royals to capitalize on Montas&#8217;s struggles.<\/p>\n<p>Despite their recent offensive woes, the Royals&#8217; best hitter has been on fire lately, boasting a .429 batting average over the past week. With the betting markets reflecting a close match\u2014Kansas City currently holds a +110 moneyline\u2014the Royals may have a chance to pull off an upset against the Mets, who are currently favored at -130. The game total sits at a high 9.0 runs, indicating expectations for a competitive showdown at the plate.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin: 3rem 0 0 0;\">New York Mets Insights<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.75rem 0;\"><strong>Frankie Montas &#8211; Over\/Under 16.5 Pitching Outs (-125\/-105)<\/strong><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.25rem 0;\">Frankie Montas has averaged 77.1 adjusted pitches per outing this year, checking in at the 12th percentile.<\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.25rem 0 1.5rem;\"><small><em><strong>Explain:<\/strong> Pitchers who average more pitches per game are more likely to go deeper into games and record more outs.<\/em><\/small><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.75rem 0;\"><strong>Francisco Lindor &#8211; Over\/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+115\/-145)<\/strong><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.25rem 0;\">As a switch-hitter who is weaker from the 0 side of the plate, Francisco Lindor will be at a disadvantage batting from his worse side against Michael Lorenzen in today&#8217;s game.<\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.25rem 0 1.5rem;\"><small><em><strong>Explain:<\/strong> Right-handed hitters perform better against left-handed pitchers (and visa-versa).
