Market Moves 4/13

1:40 p.m. ET: Kansas City Royals at New York Mets (-165, 8.5)

The Mets (6-7) took Friday night’s Interleague series opener 6-1, taking care of business as -140 home favorites. In this afternoon’s rematch, the Royals (9-5) turn to righty Alec Marsh (1-0, 3.09 ERA) and the Mets counter with lefty Sean Manaea (1-0, 0.82 ERA). This line opened with New York listed as a -155 home favorite and Kansas City a +140 road dog. Sharps have gotten down on New York, driving the Mets up from -155 to -165. The Mets are receiving roughly 60% of moneyline bets and dollars, indicating modest public support but also respected sharp action in the form of a 10-cent steam move. Interleague favorites off a win, like the Mets here, are 13-8 (62%) this season and 236-144 (62%) since the start of last season. After starting the season 0-5, the Mets are 6-2 in their last eight games. Pros have also leaned under, as the total is 8.5 with several shops juicing up the under at -115. The under is receiving 46% of bets and 49% of dollars, a slight sharp contrarian bet split. The forecast calls for low 50s with strong 15-20 MPH winds blowing left to right at Citi Field. Manaea has only given up one run in 11 innings pitched over his first two starts.
