Available at FanDuel. Alec Marsh is making his debut for the Royals, and he walked too many guys in the minors, but he did get grounders and strikeouts both at a decent clip. He also generated a ton of whiffs, generating hope that the strikeouts may translate to the majors. Bobby Miller has had mixed results in the majors so far, but he doesn't seem to be a top-level ace we need to fear when we're getting +188 on the moneyline. The Royals are not a good team, but they do have a solid bullpen behind Marsh, and this line is massive. I've got their win odds above 40% while the implied odds here are 34.7%.
