Thursday

A mediocre May is coming to an end here with one total and no sides likely today. Updates later per usual.

The Kansas City Royals, who Pat and I both have down for Over 77.5, have lost 8 in a row and have hit two home runs as a team since May 15th. Cubs pitchers have hit three home runs during this timeframe, which is kind of like having Manchester United’s goalkeepers outscore QPR over a month. Joe Posnanski has more on this somewhat historic ineptitude.

World Cup qualifiers coming up next week after this slate of useless friendlies and last round of games in La Liga.

UPDATE 1: Make it Cubs pitchers 4 Royals 2. Travis Wood with the Grand Slam.

UPDATE 2: Marlins/Rays Under 7.5 -105 Nolasco v. Colome
