It has been a turbulent couple of weeks for the Yankees. First, they lost longtime PA announcer Bob Sheppard only to then lose one of the most recognized owners in all of sports in George Steinbrenner. However, this is still the Yankees, and they are one of the best teams in all of baseball. On Friday night, they host the Kansas City Royals who have definitely not been having the year that they envisioned at the beginning of the season. While it would be easy to just go with the Yankees to win the free bet, the price they are receiving is not very valuable to bettors. For that reason, bettingfootballbetting.com is going with the OVER to be the winning play.
Hitting has most definitely not been the problem this season for the Kansas City Royals. In fact, they have some of the best hitters in the American League right now in David DeJesus and Billy Butler. Jose Guillen leads the team with 15 home runs, and his .276 batting average is steadily climbing upwards after an abysmal start to his campaign. Chris Getz has been a slight disappointment since coming over from the Chicago White Sox. In his first season with Kansas City, Getz is only hitting .232 with 0 HR. While he is not relied upon to be the go-to hitter in the Royals lineup, they do expect more out of this young player. Unlike the hitting, the starting pitching has been just dreadful for the Royals this season. Aside from Zack Greinke, who is struggling himself compared to last year's numbers, the guys being handed the ball every day are just not getting the job done. The Yankees are too good at hitting the baseball for the Royals to get away with this, which is why plenty of run scoring is to be expected leading to the OVER hitting for your free wager.
The Yankees have players like Robinson Cano, Brett Gardner, and Nick Swisher to thank for their current spot atop the American League's East division. Cano, the starting second baseman for the American League All-Star team, is hitting .335 with 17 HR. He is one of five Yankees with double digit home run totals, and his glove work in the field has him being talked about as a possible MVP candidate. Swisher's 16 HR ranks him second on the team in that category while Brett Gardner is really having a terrific start to his career with the big league club. With this kind of lineup, the Yankees should have no problem making this free bet go OVER the total.
The ball is in the Yankees court as far as Playoff positioning is concerned. They have the talent, the management, and the fan base to really make a push at another World Series title. With Sheppard and Steinbrenner now gone, there is some great motivation to put another trophy in the case in honor of two fallen legends. While bettingfootballbetting.com fully expects the Yankees to come out on top in this game, the OVER presents a more valuable play and should provide you with enough ammunition to win your free wager.
