TB -0.5 (F5)+100

Rookie debut in TB – Royals send out Noah Cameron (0.0 IP MLB). First start on road vs lineup scoring 4.3 runs/game at home? Tough spot. Rasmussen (2.10 ERA, 0.90 WHIP) has 2 wins vs KC, just 3 ER in 10.2 IP. Rays trust him to get through 5 – huge F5 value. KC offense crumbles away – just 2.7 runs/game, .200 AVG on the road, .203 vs righties. OBP under .280 = no traffic. Rays don’t crush lefties but don’t need to – just one or two big swings. Rasmussen controls games – low WHIP, deep outings, and owns KC. Royals rarely start fast, especially on road vs tough arms. Rays get early boost at home. No bullpen factor F5 – it’s Rasmussen vs a rookie. That’s a mismatch worth jumping on.

Under 8-108

N.Cameron o4.5 Ks+124

Cameron has looked awesome in Triple-A with a 30% strikeout rate and a 15% swinging-strike rate. Facing a Rays team with a 24% strikeout rate against lefties on the active roster since the start of last year.
