Royals vs Angels Prediction

The Royals are due for an offensive breakthrough after scoring one run in their last two games. Dana has pitched just 6 innings, but he’s allowed 7 hits and 5 runs in those frames. Seems like a good matchup to get the bats going. Bergert has been great since coming over from San Diego, allowing 21 hits and 8 earned runs in his last 28.1 innings. Bergert has allowed 2 or fewer earned runs in each of his last 8 games. Give me the Royals for a much-needed win. Of course, give me the RL to shave down the price.
