Miami Marlins at Kansas City Royals · 7:40 ET
Kauffman Stadium · Market: MIA -115, total 9.5
Miami and Kansas City carry the highest total on the board tonight, a 9.5 at Kauffman Stadium that points to a track meet. The model's real signal in this one belongs to Miami's Heriberto Hernandez — teammate Kyle Stowers projects for slightly more on a typical night, but Hernandez's ceiling outruns every hitter in the game, Marlins or Royals, with a real path toward six combined hits, runs and RBIs. If the Marlins' offense breaks the game open, Hernandez is the more likely engine than the names topping tonight's table.
